Understanding the skin and the benefits of adding these cosmetic skin care treatments to your clinic.

Of the basal layer, 10% of cells are stem cells, 50% are amplifying cells, and 40% are postmitotic cells. The postmitotic cells continuously move upwards through the epidermal layers until they reach the stratum cornium where the cells contain no nucleus and will exfoliate as new postmitotic cells reach the stratum cornium. With ageing this process is compromised with lesser migration of postmitotic cells resulting in a buildup of dead cells in the stratum cornium. A thick stratum cornium will make the skin greasy, dull, lifeless, and lacklustre. When the skin is compromised, the effects of Botox or Botox and Dermal Fillers is less dramatic since the canvas of the face is flawed. Therefore skin health should be a part of the repertoire of all medical aesthetic practitioners.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How do chemical peel, mesotherapy , dermaroller and skin care contribute towards skin health and skin attractiveness

.
The answer is normally stem cells are slowly dividing cells and with age these cells divide even slower but under certain conditions such as wound healing they divide faster. Chemical peels, mesotherapy and derma roller treatments injure the skin. Therefore these procedures contribute to increased cellular activity at the basal layer which leads to increased cellular turnover resulting in a uniform stratum cornium, thicker epidermis, and increased fibroblast activity at the basal layer. Chemical peels especially TCA peels can dramatically improve damaged skin due to lifestyle issue. The intensive exfoliation of the epidermal layers will improve the elasticity, texture, and clearness of the skin.

Dermaroller treatments simply injure the skin resulting in massive cellular activity which dramatically resolves numerous skin problems like scar marks, sun damaged skin, fine lines and more.

Mesotherapy has a dual action since the needle punctures injure the skin and at the same time the clinician is injecting nutrients and hyaluronic acid into the mesoderm.

The results are amazing since an ageing skin needs Hyaluronic Acid in the dermis to maintain its suppleness and hydration.

 

Identifying the best skin care treatments for your patient.

The correct skin care package can do wonders for young and mature clients. A good skin care course/package designed by a specialist will always include glycolics to enhance cellular function combined with anti-oxidants for protection and nutrition for skin repair. A bespoke skin management package used daily will protect and improve the skin continuously.

Given a choice, most clients will prefer to engage in a program that preserves their natural beauty rather than wait for folds and lines to appear creating the need for high priced quick fix procedures which does not deliver optimum solutions since these treatments will provide improvements but not to the extent if combined with a skin health program. The objective of this industry is to improve the appearance of the individual and chemical peels, derma oller and mesotherapy are less expensive, improve the entire face, improves hands and neck areas, and the treatments make patients happy due to the cost and outstanding results. There is never a complaint.

The Skin Care and Chemical Peels courses are held in London and the Southwest.The 1 day course covers a range of chemical peel systems.
