Permanent Hair Removal – Laser or Electrolysis??

Posted by admin on May 17, 2010 under Alma Lasers Harmony System, laser hair removal, new york medispa

 
There are facts about Laser Hair Removal and Electrolysis Hair Removal that are often misleading, unfortunately this incorrect information is often given by many service providers in the hair removal industry.  Many of the incorrect statements being conveyed is no need for electrolysis when laser hair removal is available.

The fact is, that both Laser Hair Removal and Electrolysis Hair Removal each have their place.

Electrolysis is the only method that will effectively remove targeted hair growth mostly seen on the chin and lip areas of women.  If a laser is used on these areas where not all the hair is actively growing it could cause much more harm than good. Vellus hair, which is the superficial hair that covers mostly every inch of our body, will be singed by the laser and start the growth process.  Before any laser session the skin must be shaved to avoid burning the hair and harming the skin. By shaving this vellus hair and then applying laser, the dormant vellus hair will begin to grow and cause much more hair growth in the area being treated for removal, the dark thick targeted hairs, which are black and coarse. Electrolysis will target the terminal hairs ( thick dark hairs) that are easily seen and felt without touching the tiny, almost not visible, vellus hairs. By doing so only the individual, unwanted hairs, on the chin, lip, brows and face are targeted and guaranteed to be permanently eliminated.

If a hair removal client has full facial hair and shaves or waxes the face completely then they are a perfect candidate for laser.  Laser works best on dark hair against light skin and also full hair growth areas like bikini, under arms and legs and back. Full back hair on men respond very well to laser as every follicle has an active hair.
 
It may not be known but every square inch of skin has 6,000 hair follicles, much of which are Vellus hairs.  Electrolysis has always been the treatment for targeted permanent hair removal and should be referred by every laser center for correction.  If a laser hair removal center does not offer Electrolysis and suggests laser on these areas, the treatment will more than likely have very undesirable results in the long run and end up with much more of an unwanted hair problem.  Offering both Electrolysis and Laser Hair Removal treatments is the perfect solution to every condition of Permanent hair removal.

Pretty Face Medi Spa now offers Laser Hair Removal in motion as seen on the Doctors on CBS.  This technology is fast and much more comfortable than the standard laser and is very effective.  After six short treatments virtually all the hair is gone or reverted back to tiny unnoticeable Vellus hair.  We sell our Laser Packages in six treatments offering the last treatment complimentary.  Offering both Laser and Electrolysis continues to put Pretty Face Medi Spa as the location of choice for Permanent Hair Removal.

Permanent Makeup, Eyeliner?

Posted by admin on May 5, 2010 under permanent makeup

I am seriously considering getting permanent makeup. I never leave the house without wearing eyeliner AND I hate it when at the end of the day it’s all smudged. The pain and stuff is not a issue, what is an issue is I was just wondering how long is the recovery time? I’m a student and if I do get it, I’ll go on Thursday and then am planning to be back in school the following Tuesday. Is four days long enough? Or am I looking at weeks? AH I hope its not too long, help would be much appreciated :) Ahh so many are against it. BUT I’ve been wearing eyeliner for 7 years now, and yes I do use it everyday. I’ve heard from lots of people that it was a great decision. I’m getting it done in a hospital so I know it’ll be good. Plus I hate stretching the sensitive skin under my eyes, I don’t want early wrinkles. But if so many people are against it…Then is it really worth it? P.s Still wondering on over all recovery time. OH and thank you all who have already answered :)

Please don’t. As you age it would mess up the line and it will look weird. Why not invest in a higher quality eyeliner? Urban Decay is really good try their 24/7 liners. Also, try an eye primer like too faced shadow insurance. But, if you really want, too, I would talk to the person who you want to do it for you. However, I highly suggest you do not get permanent makeup. It may sound like a good idea now…but it won’t when you’re older or if you decide you don’t like eyeliner anymore.

PLEASE DO… the results and benefits are priceless! I am a man and had a very light tint placed in between each of my eyelashes which is for the most part unoticable; however, it brings out the color and frames my eyes in stunning fashion.

Girls only. Permanent makeup (eyebrows)?

Posted by admin on May 4, 2010 under permanent makeup

How did the procedure go? Were you happy with the result? I’m thinking about getting it done but nervous. I’m afraid I’m gonna look like a freak. I want it to look soft and natural. Nothing dramatic or too dark.
I have never heard of permanent makeup “growing out” like another poster mentioned, that’s uhhh…kinda strange. Glad my tat’s don’t “grow out” lol! Anyway…my mom got her brow’s and lip’s (liner) done a few years ago after getting some eye-work done to maintain her “youthful” appearance :) Personally I think her brows took painted on and very unnatural, which of course I would never tell her. BUT her lip’s look great! Please think this through carefully…I would never do it personally…it only takes 2 minutes to line ur brows and u know that sh$t will rub off in the evening! Good Luck.

Just consult with a makeup artist that has experience, talent and works WITH0UT STENCILS!!! Unfortunately several women are wronged in the process and someone like Linda Nicolo at Pretty Face Medispa is called on to fix what someone else did wrong in the permanent makeup application process.

Has anyone gotten permanent eye makeup?

Posted by admin on May 3, 2010 under permanent makeup

Eye liner or eyebrows? How does it look?
I have permanent eye liner on both upper eyelids and it looks natural on me. I had a friend who was practicing to get her cosmetology license do me (know, I know, I was a brave soul!) and she did it really straight, smudge-proof and thin. I couldn’t be happier :-)

GREAT SUCCESS STORY!!

Is permanent Makeup safe? ?

Posted by admin on May 2, 2010 under permanent makeup

I’m interested in possibly getting my eyebrows and eyeliner done with permanent makeup, and wanted to get some experienced opinions on it. Is it safe? (especially the eyeliner, I’m worried about a slip of a hand!!) How does it look as you age and your face/skin changes? Where are the best places in the Vancouver area to go? Thanks in advance for your help!

 
I have the eyeliner done on my upper lids and I love it! I wouldn’t get eyebrows, I hate that draw-on look. I had a very experienced nurse that is an RN CPE, and other licensed degrees. She has certification in the procedures and my mom and grandma have also went to her. There is no way the hand can slip. The lady that did mine put on a little numbing cream first then did the eyeliner. It looks just like eyeliner would. I had her do a very thin brown/black line that was in my eyelash line and a teenie bit above. I absolutely love it! Here is a picture of my eyes for you to see my results http://s167.photobucket.com/albums/u143/blondengaffing/?action=view¤t=eyesagain.jpg

How badly does permanent makeup hurt to apply?

Posted by admin on May 1, 2010 under permanent makeup

I’ve got a weird birthmark about an inch below/to the right of my right eye. It’s like a little red starburst looking thing. But because it’s red, people always think it’s a zit and makeup never seems to cover it well. I’d like to just have a mole tattooed over it. A little dot of brownish black. Or blackish brown. That’s all. I’ve got plenty of tattoos on my arms, back, legs, neck, wrists, hips, etc., but facial tattoos sort of terrify me. Is the pain bad? How much would it cost me for just the little dot? Any good places anyone can recommend in L.A.? GOOD, SAFE, HEALTHY, CERTIFIED places? Thanks, guys!
I am from the UK so cannot tell you any places to go to unfortunately! However, I can tell you that my friend had permanent makeup done-eyeliner and eyebrows and she lookd like she had had her eyes punched for at least a week after! xx

That is a tragic tale and what your asking to have done is a very simple process that can be accommodated by any qualified and experienced permanent makeup artist! Good Luck and don’t listen to those who have only something negative to say.

Skin Tigntening 01 RxSkin Clinic

Posted by admin on Apr 2, 2010 under Laser Skin Resurfacing, laser skin tightening

Non-Surgical Face Lift with the ST Device The non-surgical face lift with the ST (skin tightening) device provides a non-invasive skin lifting and tightening.Collagen, the main support system for skin, wears down over time due to aging, cumulative sun exposure, environmental conditions and smoking, et cetera, which all lead to sagging skin. The near-infrared ST device produces safe, effective deep dermal heating which induces neo-collagenesis (new collagen production). Who are typical candidates? younger patients not ready for surgery non-surgical candidates older patients with mild to moderate laxity (skin lacking firmness) What are the benefits compared to cosmetic surgery? Inexpensive alternative No downtime Avoid the pain/risks associated with standard surgery There are no restrictions in activity following the procedure Extremely safe How it works The ST device uses radiofrequency energy to heat the tissue below the skin while it keeps the skin surface cool. This “tightens” your existing collagen and stimulates new collagen growth. The end result is tighter, firmer skin. A local anesthetic cream will be used to numb the treatment area for one hour before your procedure. The length of time required for the procedure itself will depend on the size of the treatment area. The usual range is between 30 minutes and one hour. While the procedure should not hurt, you may experience a sensation of heat in the treated areas. Patients leave the office looking and feeling great. Typically, three to six 30 minute treatment sessions are required to obtain the desired result. Post-Procedure Results: What to Expect Results vary from patient to patient. Your age, treatment area, and skin laxity all affect the outcome. While some patients have seen improvement within a few days, you should expect your results to appear over a period of three to five months. We will take pictures before and after your procedure so you can see the benefits of your treatment over time. ST Device Science Overview: Key components to non-invasive skin remodeling are epidermal protection and proper selection of laser/light and energy to evoke the desired thermal response in the papillary and upper reticular dermis. These non-ablative modalities obviate the need for epidermal injury and promote the reorganization and proliferation of important dermal structures to reverse photo-damaged and lax skin via thermal or photochemical process. The ST device emits light between 780-1000nm (near infrared) where the optical window is ideal for direct sub-dermal heating (connective tissue, proteins) with low water absorption in the epidermis. These conditions negate the need for aggressive epidermal cooling. The ST device allows large coverage and true investment of energy density for better penetration and predictable thermal effect. The device is applied on the skin where it is kept stationary for the entire exposure time. Skin remodeling is a biophysical phenomenon that occurs at cellular and molecular levels via the intervention of optical or thermal energy. The ST device exerts its biological effect on the skin through two major mechanisms: 1) heat-induced collagen shrinkage and micro-thermal injury and; 2) dermis regeneration, repair (wound healing) and remodeling. Collagen cleavage in tissue is a probability event dependant on temperature. The in-vitro thermal cleavage of the hydrogen bond cross links of tropocollagen can result in the molecular contraction of the triple helix up to one third of its original length. Cellular contraction involves the initiation of an inflammatory/wound healing sequence that is perpetuated over several weeks. Contraction of skin is achieved through fibroblastic multiplication and contraction with the deposition of a static supporting matrix of nascent scar collagen. This cellular contraction process is a biological threshold event initiated by the degranulation of the mast cell that releases histamine. This histamine release initiates the inflammatory wound healing sequence. Following cellular contraction, collagen is laid down as a static supporting matrix in the tightened soft tissue structure. The deposition and subsequent remodeling of this nascent scar matrix provides the means to alter the consistency and geometry of soft tissue for aesthetic purposes.

What is the difference between Pixel Laser and Profractional Laser?

My doctor offers Profractional. I know how this works, by treating only part of the skin while leaving the rest untreated to speed up the healing time. And I understand this is considered to not be an ‘ablative’ treatment. So what is Pixel? Is that the same as Fractional or Profractional? This is confusing! Thanks. PS – Has anyone had either of these? The Pixel is cheaper but is it as good? Has anyone has Profractional? Quite expensive but maybe better . . . ?

 
Unlike traditional ablative lasers, used only on the face, the Laser Pixel® 2940 is targeted at treatments on the face, neck, chest, arms and hands, giving it a wider scope for treating aged and sun damaged skin. Sciton announced the launch of their ProFractional 2940nm ablative laser device during the American Society of Laser Medicine & Surgery (ASLMS) meeting in April 2006. This device has now been launched in the UK in the last month and is distributed by Sigmacon Ltd, as an additional handpiece for the Sciton Profile™ laser platform. Pixel laser reviews by RealSelf.com users 89% said worth it (8 reviews) 11% said not worth it (1 review) Cost of Pixel laser: $720 (avg of 9 reviews) www.Sciton.com has lots of info on both, couldn’t find cost of profractional laser treatments, sorry, hope this helps though. also, go to acne.org, look up PROGRESS PHOTOS: MicroLaser Peel & Profractional Laser Treatment a girl who goes by LeslieAnn got profractional laser treatment and shows photos of her progress.
