Sunscreen

Dear Spa Patients,

I have been hitting the pool a ton in the past two weeks, and even though I use sunscreen, my skin is feeling fried!  I haven’t been taking care of it nearly as well as I should after a day in the sun.  So here are some tips for post-sun care I’m determined to follow, and I hope you do too!

Put a Glow in Your Summer Skin

Suncreen Basics – The bottom line is just wear a good SPF 15 and it should be labeled Broad Spectrum for full UV protection.  SPF numbers beyond 50 have such a slight incremental difference that it’s almost not worth getting them. SPF of 15 confers 95% protection from burning and skin cancers and SPF 50 gives you 98% protection- going up after that, the percentage becomes so incremental. Revage Medical Spa offers a variety of facial moisturizers all of which have Broad Spectrum including our mineral makeup, Colorescience. -Always wear a sunblock, even on cloudy days. 

• Balance Your Oily Skin - Masks help to absorb excess oil and clean pores. Frequent use of these products will help keep skin looking more clear and a little less shiny.  Revage Medical Spa offers a wonderful deep cleansing mask that balances the skin’s sebaceous secretions. Aromatherapy Associates Balance purifying mask is antiseptic, helps with clearing and draining and is recommended for normal to combination skin, problem skin, blocked pores or dull, lifeless skin.
• Upgrade Cleansers & Toners – Cleansers and toners may also need a little boosting. Something with salicylic acid will help control blackheads as well as keep skin smooth and soft.
• Exfoliate - Exfoliation will help your skin to better absorb moisturizer and sunscreen. It’s so very important to exfoliate your skin. Your body sheds skin cells at an amazing rate every minute of every day. If you don’t get rid of them, they’ll just sitting on your skin making you look dull and dry. No matter how much lotion you use, you’re never going to have glowing skin if you don’t exfoliate.  Call Revage and ask one of our aestheticians  what exfoliant works for your skin.
• It’s C for the Summer – Vitamin A products can make the skin more sensitive to the sun.  You will still get the anti-wrinkle benefits but vitamin C will help protect against UV rays as well. During the summer months, it would be smart to switch to a Vitamin C based skin care.  Revage Medical Spa offers an array of vitamin C products from Obagi and PCA product lines.
• Acne patients  - Revage Medical Spa skin practitioners recommend their acne patients to find alternatives to Accutane, Retin-A, and Benzoyl Peroxide if they plan on spending time in the sun. All three acne treatments make skin more sensitive to the sun, making skin more vulnerable to sunburn. Switch to an Alpha hydroxy accids (AHA) or Salicylic Acid routine for the summer. AHA do not increase the skin’s burning potential nearly as much as the aforementioned products.

Secrets to Protect & Restore your Luminous, Radiant Skin

Winter Beauty Secrets

Start the New Year off with a commitment to healthy skin.  Winter is the best time to begin an aggressive beauty ritual because most of us are not as exposed to the direct sunlight as we are during the spring and summer months. However, that doesn’t mean to stop protecting your skin. If your skin is exposed to the elements then it can dry out, even start flaking, or worse, cracking. You should take good care of your skin during these bitter winter months.
