Why And How To Care For The Skin Of Your Neck

0

The neck area is exposed to sunlight and other elements just as the face region, so it should be taken care of to avoid problems. 

In this context, some companies have been developing their own devices to treat this body region. They are aimed to protect and improve damages and use LED technology to do so.

As an example, we highlight the Current Body Skin LED Neck and Dec Perfector which is made of silicone and LED. This mask is made specifically for this body region and uses two forms of clinically proven lights to fight wrinkles, fine lines and other signs of aging. It’s use is recommended up to 3 to 5 times a week and lasts only 10 minutes. After 4 weeks of use, a tighter, smoother, firmer and more even skin tone is expected.

Why And How To Care For The Skin Of Your Neck

Furthermore, the ZAQ Noor neck mask is also made of flexible and safe silicone and promises a painless LED skin therapy at home. The manufacturer states that this device emits four therapeutic light colors and is recommended even for the most sensitive skin, benefiting many common skin conditions. The main improvements are: blood circulation, slower skin aging process, collagen growth, tightening of the skin.

With these devices, it is easy and quick to take care of this region that is constantly forgotten by most people and can be a source of stress in the near future.

Anti-Snore Devices: Alternatives To Improve Your Sleep Health

0

Snoring is a widespread condition, as it is estimated that 40% of adults snore. It can have multiple origins, like weight gain, alcohol consumption, colds and allergies, and even sleep positions. 

The treatment options are also diverse, including technological devices that use different methods to improve snoring. Considering that the principle of this condition is relaxed tongue, mouth tissues and throat. So the air passes, creating vibrations and sounds.

The Smart Nora device uses positional therapy to avoid snores, as it will move the head position while sleeping and snoring, which can shift from the back sleep position to the side. It consists of a system that includes a wireless, mic-equipped device that stays nearby to detect snoring sounds. When the equipment hears the noise, an under-bed base station pumps air through a tube to insert the pillow.

The SnoreRx Plus is a very well-reviewed tool for sleepers who prefer the feel of a mandibular advancement device and whose jaw placement preferences vary nightly. It is custom made through boil-and-bite molding and allows full mouth breathing.

Chin straps are also trendy for snore treatments as they push the mouth closed so that breathing through the nose is forced. Another alternative is the nasal strips, which consist of plastic strips that pull the nose’s sides to open the nasal passages. These strips also promise instant relief from congestion and are usually scented lavender or mint.

Many more options are available in the market. Their efficacy varies depending on the frequency of snoring, so finding the best one is a very personal decision in terms of price, technology, size and portability.

What Is Dermalinfusion and How Does It Work?

0

Dermalinfusion is a noninvasive skin care treatment patented by the brand SilkPeel, now known as Diamond Glow. It’s an FDA-approved technology that works to treat your skin in three ways.

In the Diamond Glow process, a diamond-tipped wand exfoliates your skin while also vacuuming away debris and infusing your skin with a custom serum. In a similar process by the brand HydraFacial, the device uses a disposable vortex tip for exfoliation instead of a diamond tip.

Most people get Dermalinfusion on their face, neck, and upper chest. The treatment is generally safe and can be used on a variety of skin types. Plus, the wand can be adjusted for people with conditions like acne or rosacea.

Keep reading to find out what sets Dermalinfusion apart from other skincare treatments and why you may want to try it.

How it works

Dermalinfusion is a 3-in-1 treatment designed to:

  • exfoliate your skin
  • clear away debris like dirt and dead skin cells
  • infuse your skin with a serum that’s customized to your needs

The treatment uses a diamond-tipped or disposable vortex-tipped wand to exfoliate your skin. The diamond-tipped wand is about the size of a pen; the disposable vortex tip uses a patented technology for exfoliation.

The coarseness of the wand’s tip can be adjusted to suit your skin type. It can be made gentle enough to cover parts of your face that can’t be treated with microdermabrasion, such as your lips and around your eyes.

The wand also includes a vacuum that sucks up debris at the same time that it infuses your skin with serum. The type of serum used depends on the goal of your treatment. The serum can be designed for a variety of conditions, like:

Benefits of Dermalinfusion

Dermalinfusion has several advantages over traditional microdermabrasion treatment, which is also an exfoliation-based process.

Dry Brushing Benefits: How to Dry Brush the Right Way

What do jade rollers, cellulite creams, and dry brushes all have in common? Cult followings of people spreading the ~gospel~ of how great they are for improving “lymphatic drainage” or “reducing cellulite.” The flip side? They also have equally large legions of haters and naysayers. So who or what should you believe? Science. Believe the science. Because I took all your questions to board-certified dermatologist Lily Talakoub, MD, to find out the actual proven benefits of dry brushing and how to wield the long, awkward stick thing for the best effective results. But first…

What is dry brushing?

Dry brushing is a form of mechanical exfoliation, says Talakoub. Unlike chemical exfoliants (like AHA and BHAs—i.e., lactic acid, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, etc.), mechanical or physical exfoliators work to remove dead skins by physically scrubbing them off. If that sounds kinda harsh, that’s because, yeah, it can be, which is why it’s important to take note of the below advice from a derm before putting to use that dry brush of yours that’s been sitting in your shower caddy for actual years. Listen up.

What are the benefits of dry brushing?

The main benefit is what Dr. Talakoub already mentioned above: exfoliation. The physical act of rubbing the bristles against your skin loosens and removes dead skin cells and makes your body feel smoother and more supple.But other believers will swear that dry brushing is magical for lymphatic drainage (the system that drains the fluids and the toxins away from your body).

Dr. Talakoub, however, isn’t buying it, explaining that there are no double-blind, placebo-controlled studies to support dry brushing lymphatic drainage—only anecdotal, word-of-mouth stories. As she explains it, brushing in a direction toward the heart (from the legs up and the neck down) could possibly improve lymph drainage, circulation, and blood flow, particularly for people who already have reduced blood flow in their legs or swelling, but it’s not going to transform your health.

Does dry brushing really help cellulite?

Ehh, not really, no. Sure, dry-brushing your body could slightly improve your lymphatic flow and break up collagen bundles (the stuff that’s linked to cellulite) say Dr. Talakoub, but there are no good studies to back any claims of cellulite removal through dry brushing. With that said, Dr. Talakoub says, other than the risk of it not working, there’s really no harm in those with “normal” skin (read: not sensitive skin) trying it anyway.

What Is Laser Lipolysis and How Does It Work?

0

Laser lipolysis is a type of cosmetic surgery. It uses laser energy to change the shape and appearance of your body. There are other kinds of lipolysis that involve injections or radio wave treatments, but laser lipolysis is the most common technique.

Lipolysis targets smaller deposits of fat on specific parts of the body. You may be a good candidate if you have fatty tissue on your abdomen, hips, thighs, or buttocks that you wish to get rid of. This procedure typically isn’t recommended for people who are obese.

If you’re interested in lipolysis, you’ll need to have a consultation with a licensed plastic surgeon about your goals. They can talk you through your individual benefits and any possible risks.

How it compares to other fat removal procedures

Lipolysis uses lasers to break fat cells apart, reducing the volume of fatty tissue. This process is also said to tighten the skin in the area where the treatment is applied. You may find that your skin is smoother and tighter than before.

Overall, lipolysis offers similar benefits to other fat removal procedures. The lasers used in this procedure are safe for clinical use and don’t pose a big risk of burning your skin. There’s little risk of infection to the treated area, and scarring is minimal.

But it does have some advantages over cosmetic surgeries like liposuction. Lipolysis can be done in your doctor’s office. There’s also a shorter recovery period. You can usually resume your normal activities in a few days. By comparison, liposuction typically comes with a recovery period of several weeks.

How to prepare

Your doctor will provide you with specific information on how to prepare for your procedure.

They may advise you to:

  • Stop taking blood thinners and anti-inflammatory drugs for two weeks prior to your procedure. These medications could interfere with your body’s healing process.
  • Avoid activity that might irritate the area that is going to be treated for a week prior to the procedure. This includes tanning and shaving.
