It is important that you schedule a free skin care consultation with one of our skin care specialists in order to determine which products are most appropriate for your skin type and personal health history. Here is some brief information on the cosmetic products available in our practice:
Glytone®
It all begins with alpha hydroxies - a group of fruit extracts used since ancient times to beautify the skin. Glycolic acid is derived from sugar cane and has more beautifying effects on the skin than any other fruit acid.
Glycolic acid improves your skin's tone and texture, refines large pores, and evens out pigmentation and other irregularities.
SkinCeuticals
Recent skin care research shows that aging skin is the result of more than just age. Everyday your skin is exposed to environmental elements like sunlight, smoke, and air pollution - elements which cause free radicals to form in the skin. These free radicals attack the skin's collagen layer and break it down, causing lines and wrinkles to appear. This process is commonly called photoaging.
Research has now shown that topical Vitamin-C can help improve skin tone and elasticity, and help to improve the appearance of skin damaged by photoaging.
SkinCeuticals topical Vitamin-C improves elasticity and firmness, fights free radical attacks, protects with the anti-oxidant strength of Vitamin-C, and prevents the appearance of future signs of aging.
