I love that your show brings new techniques and procedures to light. I wish that there could be a show that focuses on non-surgical ways to get positive results. I am an Esthetician, I use some great machines in my practice; Micrdermabrasion, the Bio-Therapeutic Microcurrent Machine (Was on Opera) for non-surgical facelifts, Bio-Synthesis...using Red, Blue, Green and Yellow LED lights to treat and DRAMATICALLY improve your skins appearance. There are tons of fascinating studies being done on LED lights... what a fabulous tool they are proving to be!
Let's talk about ACNE and how MOST cases can be helped by simply using good products, eating better, drinking more water, CUTTING out Caffeine! Pimples come from clogged pores and more often than not can be helped greatly just by cleansing and exfoliating correctly, using the proper products! My sister had Eczema on her face and a Dermatologist actually prescribed Acutane! It wasn't even acne! I was just shocked and told her NOT to take it, traveled to and from CT 2 times a week and cleared her up about 80% of the way just by use of Blue and Green LED and proper products and gentle ezymatic exfoliation. Acutane should only be taken as a LAST resort, it should NOT be prescribed so flippedly.... it causes birth defects and is DANGEROUS.
Then, let's talk about products. GOOD products that are made well, Cosmecueticals...Product lines like Janssen, Babor, GM Collins.... and WHY they are better than the over the counter things that people buy.
Let's talk about SUNSCREENS! Let's tell people the truth... that most sunscreens protect you from getting color but NOT from getting OLD. Only Broadspectrum (UVA and UVB) sunscreens that contain specific ingredients(Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide) will insure their safety. Good SUNSCREENS are not $6.00! Some cost 30.00 to 60.00 but they WORK! Skinceuticals,is one of the best! Now, let's educate WOMEN that can't do without their tans on what they are to expect as they age, telling them that all your sun damage starts to show as you go into menapause...a double whamo... you don't feel good or like yourself and now all the wrinkles, age spots, hyperpigmentation...etc start coming out because as we age our bodies stop producing higher amounts of hormones that USED to supress these conditions. Again...there are great product line that contain PhytoEstrogens that help somewhat when applied topically.
I'd really love to see more in depth topics such as this so Mom's can watch and show their little girls or TEACH their little girls the RIGHT WAY to prevent such things. I wish that my Mom had!
