Your Face GURU

Demodex folliculorum and Demodex brevis are microscopic mites commonly found on human skin, especially around hair follicles, eyelashes, and oil-rich areas like the face. Many studies suggest most adults carry them, often without knowing it.
Living on your face” is a little dramatic. They’re more in follicles than marching around like a mite metropolis. Tiny subterranean tenants. 😄
Your skin is an ecosystem. You are, in a very real sense, a walking nature preserve. A national park with pores. They tend to be more common with age. Babies often have few or none, and adults accumulate them over time.

Thermage vs. Ultherapy treatments
A Comparison

Thermage and Ultherapy are two popular non-surgical skin tightening treatments that use different technologies to stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity. Here's a breakdown of their key differences:
Technology:
Thermage: Radiofrequency (RF) energy and Ultherapy: Microfocused ultrasound (MFU).
Depth of Treatment:
Thermage: Targets the upper layers of the skin (dermis)
Ultherapy: Penetrates deeper into the skin (subcutaneous tissue)
Treatment Duration:
Thermage: Typically takes 45-60 minutes
Ultherapy: Duration varies depending on the area treated, usually 30-60 minutes
Results:
Thermage: Visible results within a few weeks, with continued improvement over 6-12 months
Ultherapy: Results may take 2-3 months to appear, and can last for up to 2 years
Side Effects:
Both treatments may cause temporary redness, swelling, and discomfort
Ultherapy may also cause small white dots (hypopigmentation) that typically fade within a few weeks
Candidates:
Thermage: Suitable for mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines, and wrinkles
Ultherapy: Recommended for deeper skin laxity, more pronounced wrinkles, and sagging skin
Cost:
Both treatments vary in cost depending on the provider and the area treated
Which One Is Right for You?
The best treatment for you depends on your individual skin concerns, budget, and desired results. Consult with a qualified dermatologist or aesthetician to discuss your options and determine the most appropriate treatment.
Additional Considerations:
Thermage is generally more comfortable than Ultherapy.
Ultherapy may be better for treating larger areas of skin.
Thermage may be more suitable for people with thinner skin.

Remember, it's important to choose a reputable provider with experience in performing these treatments.

THE BENEFITS OF NANO NEEDLING SKIN REFINING
WHAT IS”NANO NEEDLING?

An extremely effective yet, non-invasive or painless procedure that targets a large range of skin conditions with NO DOWNTIME! It promotes collagen production, refines skin surface, improves acne scarring, wrinkles, fine lines, pigmentation, rosacea.
HOW DOES NANO NEEDLING WORK?
Unlike microneedling that uses actual needles to create micro-injuries, nano needling uses a tip with 80 silicon pyramid like pins which do not damage the skin. These pins have a diameter smaller than a strand of hair and promote exfoliation and deep pe*******on of products into the skin.
During the treatment the esthetician will use a handheld electric pen device with a nano needle tip attached that is gently glided over the skin. These pins create nano channels allowing treatment serums and nutrition to pass through the skin barrier. This procedure increases the effective pe*******on of products over the average application.
Although we recommend a series of 4 – 6 procedures spaced a week to two apart, your skin will be glowing after the first treatment.
Nano Skin Refining allows for precise a treatment geared and tailored for any skin type with many different conditions.
When dead skin cells accumulate on the surface of the skin they cause your skin to look aged. These skin cells act as a barrier and prevent products from penetrating the skin. Exfoliating these dead skin cells away with “Nano Needling” will leave your skin smoother and healthier.
