Banish Summer Beauty Meltdowns! DERMATOLOGIST-APPROVED HACKS TO STAY COOL

For many, this summer has been hot, bringing many sweat-related issues that can wreak havoc on your skin-care routine. As we head into the summer’s twilight, consider adjusting your techniques with three dermatologist-approved tricks to beat the heat. Smell fresh all day. You know the tragic moment when you spritz on your favorite perfume, only to have the scent fade away before you’ve even made it out the door? A moisturizer can prevent that — specifically, an occlusive kind containing petroleum, like CeraVe or Aquaphor healing ointment. These products create a barrier on your skin, slowing the evaporation process and allowing your scent to remain fragrant longer. Free the pits. Do sweaty or dark-colored armpits keep you from raising your arms too much during the

summer? Thanks to glycolic acid wipes, it’s time to throw your hands in the air like you just don’t care. Regularly using face or body pads containing BHA (beta-hydroxy acid) or AHA (alpha-hydroxy acid) on your underarms can quickly refresh between showers and reap some top-notch benefits. These naturally occurring acids exfoliate the skin, unclog pores, heal

sun damage, and help to lighten dark spots. Additionally, AHA and BHA can keep body odor away no matter how hot it gets. Say bye-bye to makeup stains. As the adage goes, you can’t wear white after Labor Day — which makes summer the ideal season to strut your stuff in all your best achromatic outfits. Before you get dressed, take this simple precaution to prevent makeup and tinted SPF from smudging all over the collars of your crisp, clean shirts. The hack? A little hairspray on your clothing prevents smudging by leaving a thin film, creating a barrier between your makeup and the fabric. It might be the hottest time of the year — but that doesn’t mean you need to accept a total beauty meltdown. By incorporating these simple hacks into your daily summer routine, you’ll keep your cool in style for the rest of the season.

How Nanolaserpeel Revitalizes Your Skin Erase Imperfection

Our skin is our largest organ, a complex system of three distinct layers covering our entire body. It also shows age more prominently than any other part of our body, causing unfortunate wrinkles to our self-esteem. Fortunately, our clinic provides innovative treatments that can help revitalize your skin and regain your confidence. One of these is our Nanolaserpeel skin care treatment, which can be utilized on your face, neck, or chest to whisk away unwanted blemishes and wrinkles. While most skin care treatments only treat the first layer of your skin, Nanolaserpeel addresses the damage at a deeper level, allowing you to heal more thoroughly and quickly. What Is Nanolaserpeel? According to research published in the Journal of Lasers in Medical Sciences, as skin ages, it thins, loses elasticity, and develops “cigarette paper-like wrinkles.” Fortunately, new

technology can help repair and renew your skin. Nanolaserpeel is a procedure made possible by the world-renowned, high-performance aesthetic laser systems developed by Sciton. Utilizing their state-of-the-art instrumentation, we can provide our patients an innovative and ideal way to achieve smoother, brighter skin. How It Works Our skin is exposed to UV radiation from the sun, which primarily contributes to its aged and damaged appearance. Laser skin resurfacing helps rejuvenate your skin at a molecular level, erasing the blemishes and signs of aging. It achieves this by utilizing light energy to instantly remove not just the top layers of your skin but by penetrating to a depth that triggers messenger proteins and helps accelerate your skin’s renewal process. Best of all? The downtime is only 1-2 days, meaning it is the perfect way to end your

week and emerge from the weekend with healthy skin! Nanolaserpeel is the perfect procedure for anyone interested in the latest and greatest method of achieving smoother, brighter skin.
