This post is just the result of my personal experiences in the last months which ended in a surgery because the doctor found gallstones and I didn’t have the time for keep my gallbladder and they have to removed it, so I started to made self care a real priority, as an esthetician I always have been related with healthcare but not always have been my real priority.

Facts

A primera vista, aplicar el sérum no tiene mucho misterio, pero al parecer lo hemos estado haciendo mal toda nuestra vida

Cuántas fotos hemos visto al dosificador entrando en contactos con los dedos o con la cara? El gotero de cristal no debe tocar nunca la piel directamente ya que se puede llenar de sueciedad y bacterias que contaminen el producto. Por motivos de higiene, debemos aplicar el producto evitando el contacto con el dispensador.

El orden de los factores sí altera el producto
Sabemos que el punto de partida: una piel limpia, sin embargo, cada producto lleva un orden: los productos más ligeros se aplican primero y los más densos, después. Por ello, podemos aplicar el sérum, directamente después del limpiador o del tónico, pero nunca después de la crema, el maquillaje o el protector solar.

Hablemos de los sueros!!!

¿Que son?

El suero es un hidratante facial ligero y fresco que contiene una alta concentración de ingredientes activos que han sido formulados para nutrir y regeneran la piel desde su interior.

Su composición les permite alcanzar las capas más profundas de la piel, actuando y reparándola a nivel celular.

Esta es una gran opción para tratar problemas puntuales como:
arrugas, manchas, acné, textura irregular y cicatrices entre otros.

Hablemos del demodex 🪳
Son ácaros, que afectan la piel.

La infestación por estos ácaros puede ser el resultado del contacto humano-humano o con fomites (toallas, peines, ropa de cama, etc.)

Vive en los poros, los folículos pilosos, y en las glándulas sebáceas. En comparación con otras partes del cuerpo, tu rostro tiene poros más grandes y numerosas glándulas sebáceas, lo que puede explicar por qué los ácaros suelen vivir ahí.

Se cree que se comen las bacterias, las células muertas de la piel o la grasa de las glándulas sebáceas.
No los puedes ver, pero están ahí. Son microscópicos, de ocho patas semejantes a arañas.

Allí comen, se aparean y, finalmente, mueren.

Pero antes de que te asustes deberías saber que estos huéspedes probablemente no representan un problema serio y hasta podrían ser totalmente inofensivos.

En algunos casos, suelen reproducirse más de lo normal y ahí si podrían ocasionarte algún problema de la piel.

Skin Conditions can be influenced by various internal and external factors.

Dehydrated Skin had a dull tired rough looking appearance and texture with fine lines.Your skin is unable to retain moisture and your sebaceous glands becomes less active.

Sensitive Skin may have a red-pink look. Skin will turn red easily and easily inflamed by some skin care products.

Aging Skin- is characterized by a loss in elasticity with sagging in areas around the eyes and jawline. Wrinkles may occur.

Sun damaged Skin has been chronically and frequently exposed to the sun over the client's lifetime. Sun damage skin will have areas of hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and sagging due to damage to elastic fibers. The skin looks older than it should for the age of the cilent.

Skin Pigmentation or dark blotches on the skin are caused by sun exposure, genetics or hormonal imbalances.

Did you know there are 3 main layers of our skin and each has a very important job to do?

The Epidermis (aka the top layer) is the one you can see o• and is kept super busy making new skin cells, giving skin its colour and protecting us from any outside nasties!

The Dermis (aka the second layer) is responsible for doing a whole bunch of useful stuff including giving the skin its strength and elasticity (hello collagen and elastin!) and making sweat and oil, growing hair and bringing blood to the skin!

Subcutaneous fat (aka the bottom layer) has the important job of storing your fat, controlling your body temperature, helping blood vessels and nerve cells and using its special connecting tissue to attach the dermis to your muscles and bones.

Pretty impressive huh?!

While skincare products are only capable of penetrating the epidermis, in clinic treatments like medium to deep peels, skin needling, platelet rich plasma therapy and facial can reach all the way to the dermis (aka where the magic happens!)

So if you want to see some BIG changes in your skin, these guys are the rejuvenating treatments for you!

To find out more, book in for a skin consultation and we can figure out the perfect treatment plan for you (and get you those dramatic results you deserve!)

We recommend a series of four treatments, each of which is scheduled two or three days apart, for most patients. Occasionally, the initial series may involve until twelve treatments. Results tend to plateau after four or six treatments, so we usually don’t encourage patients to schedule any more than that as part of the initial series. Scheduling a maintenance treatment every three or four months, as needed, can help preserve your results.

Dato curioso: HOY en el hermoso país donde nací 🇨🇴 A diferencia de otros países del continente, en Colombia celebramos el Día de Amor y Amistad en una fecha diferente al 14 de febrero, como es costumbre en el resto del mundo.

La decisión para realizar el Día de Amor y Amistad en septiembre tiene dos orígenes. Por un lado, en 1969 los comerciantes propusieron el cambio de fecha al notar que para febrero los colombianos no tenían mucho dinero para gastar por causa de la compra de los útiles escolares.

Por otra parte, este gremio se dio cuenta que, en comparación con otros meses, en el país no había una celebración en el mes de septiembre. Motivo perfecto para dedicar un día de ese mes al amor y la amistad 😜

Ya ven siempre el espíritu de emprendimiento y negocios de los colombianos 🇨🇴 así somos 😎😎😎

Entonces, ahora que ya les conté la historia… Feliz día del amor y la amistad a todos mis clientes que se han convertido en AMISTADES 🥰 yo llegué aquí sin un solo amigo y ahora tengo la bendición de crear conexiones hermosas y duraderas con ustedes, que aunque se vayan de Hawaii los momentos que hemos compartido siempre los vamos a recordar 😘😘😘😘

How often should you be treating your skin concern?

Each skin concern gets treated differently. This also means they get treated at different recommended time frequencies.

If you really want to see results I always recommend my clients stick to these durations of time when getting professional treatments.

I like to see my acne clients every 2 weeks to keep up with the life cycle of acne. Aging and hyperpigmentation every 3 weeks to keep up with the cell cycle and melanocyte cycle that causes pigment. With sensitive skin, I like to treat every 4 weeks as the barrier is compromised and I don’t want to over-treat the skin.

Treatments can look like; peels, microdermabrasion, microcurrent, enzymes, microneedling, LED light therapy, etc.

SAVE this post so you don’t forget 😁❤️

Cuando hacemos el protocolo adecuado los tratamientos de contorno corporal no invasivos reducen las células grasas para ayudarlo a tener una apariencia más delgada de aspecto natural sin cirugía plástica invasiva ni tiempo de inactividad.

Esto quiere decir que la grasa que tenías no volverá, pero si en tu dieta incluyes comidas saturadas, y ultra procesadas tu cuerpo generará nuevas células de grasa. Por eso necesitas mantener un estilo de vida saludable para garantizar resultados duraderos.

Si tienes grasa persistente que no responde a la dieta ni al ejercicio mis técnicas Colombianas te van a encantar 🇨🇴
