All you need to know about skincare injectables

Ever used a skincare product that claimed to have skin rejuvenating properties like collagen and elastin only for it to show little or no results? Sometimes it seems to take a long time before you get to see any noticeable changes in your skin.

The Why

The reason why the skincare products you apply topically are not as effective is because some ingredients don’t penetrate into the skin easily. For example, hyaluronic acid, the ingredient which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, doesn’t penetrate to the layer of the skin where it can perform its wonders. Before it can penetrate in your skin it has to be fine-tuned in the lab. This process may reduce its full potential. That’s why it takes a long time before you see the most coveted beautiful skin.

The skincare products help reduce premature aging by minimizing the presence of wrinkles and improving cell elasticity. That is why they are included in almost all skin rejuvenating skincare products.

However, if collagen, elastin or hyaluronic acids are so vital and don’t penetrate into the skin easily then how can you enjoy the benefits they offer?

 

The How

Cosmetologists devised a way women, like you and I, can experience the full benefits of collagen and elastin. The effect is immediate so you don’t have to wait for a long time before the benefits kick in. To achieve this you need to go through a simple procedure. You get the skincare products injected into your skin.

It may sound a little scary to some of you who are afraid of needles but skincare injectables promise to deliver excellent results. The success is based on ensuring that they’re injected below the skin where the action can take place as soon as they are deposited. It would have taken weeks, if not months, for them to get there while applying the skincare products that contain the exact properties topically.

There are so many types of injectables like Xeomin, Botox, and Juvenderm with their specific functions and peculiarities. However, as good as injectables sound their effects aren’t permanent. Injectables last about 6 to 9 months.

If you’re interested in injectables that will help bring the glow back or cause your wrinkles and fine lines vanish, make sure you ask how long they last. The bright side is that it is safe to have the same procedure multiple times.

 

The Limits

Of course, skincare injectables have their limits. Although they do an amazing job keeping the wrinkles out of sight you may not end up too lucky if you have deeps set wrinkles. And that is because little or nothing can be done for these type of wrinkles. That’s why it’s advisable to use skincare injectables when the fine lines and wrinkles are at their early stage or when you start noticing them.

You need to exercise a lot of caution when going for an injectable procedure. Some injectables require that you avoid or reduce physical activities. Others require you to be cautious when applying makeup on the area where the injectable procedure was applied.

Skincare routines like exfoliation should be avoided immediately after the procedure. The injectable procedure can leave your skin sensitive or bruised. The intensity depends on your skin type but they disappear after some time. So make sure that you have the injectable procedure carried out by a trained and experienced professional.

Fashion and Beauty Products

I eat and drink fashion and beauty, which is why you read a lot of these topics on Fashion and Style Police. I wonder how the world would have been without fashion and beauty. It would have been dead boring. That I am sure of. I bet I won’t have been able to cope.

These fashion and beauty products were delivered in the last few days, and I have been busy with them.

I have used Olverum Bath Oil and I think it is a fantastic bath oil. The fact that all the oil is absorbed into my skin, leaving no greasy residue in my bath tub is amazing.

Before I met Olverum, I always found using bath oil products a chore, because I had to scrub the bath right after, so no one trips. So it is great to not have that problem with Olverum Bath Oil. I can see myself taking this travel set away with me on many trips. Half a capful of this product leaves me feeling so relaxed.

5 Things you need to know before getting laser hair removal treatment

I had my last session of my laser hair removal treatment last year. There were 6 sessions in total including the patch treatment. Many people have asked me about my laser hair removal experience, and some questions have been asked a few times by different people. So I thought writing a post on 5 Things you need to know before getting laser hair removal treatment would be useful.

The laser hair removal treatment I had was on my chin. I found my chin hairs very annoying. The best option for me was to have the laser treatment, since waxing and threading were not the keeping my chin hair-free long enough. I would 100% recommend this treatment to anyone in need of it. I found it very effective. But before you go ahead, here are some things you need to know you start the treatment.

 

5 Things you need to know before getting laser hair removal treatment

Avoid the sun before your treatment

It is best to stay out of the sun before your treatment. You won’t be able to have the treatment done if the area has a sun burn. It is best to have the treatment done in the autumn/winter months if possible.

You should also avoid tanning beds, spray tans, tanning lotion and makeup on the area to be treated. I had to always wipe my chin area completely before the treatment to ensure there was no makeup on it.

 

You will need a couple of sessions

You will need a couple of sessions to achieve good results. I had 6 sessions and I know someone who had 12 sessions. The number of sessions you have depends on the area to be treated, the type of hair to be removed and many other factors.

Consistency is the way to achieve good results. So ensure you have as many treatments as needed, and at the right time too.  I went for my treatments every 4/6 weeks.

 

The pain is bearable

I found the pain bearable, but maybe I just have a good pain threshold. Many people I know complain about how uncomfortable it is and I agree. It is uncomfortable but not as painful as I imagined.

 

It is suitable on all skin types 

The laser hair removal treatment I had is suitable for all skin types. You can find out more about it being suitable for your skin type from this short YouTube video.

 

 

Do not wax or thread after treatment

You can shave, but make sure you don’t wax or thread after each treatment. Whilst having the treatment, pulling out your hair follicles through waxing and threading hinders the process.
