1 August 2011 What Scars, Wrinkles, Cellulite And Stretch Marks Have In Common All of these skin conditions have been tricked by your body! Scars, wrinkles, cellulite and stretch marks are considered normal by your skin s standards. But that s okay we have a few tricks of our own. With micro-needling, we can trick your skin into creating new skin cells, instead of scar tissue and wrinkles. This safe, natural alternative to invasive laser, works with your body to produce new collagen that will diminish time s tell-tale signs. Unlike other clinical treatments, micro-needling can be repeated indefinitely! Why? Because it thickens the skin for more elasticity. Laser treatments melt and burn skin layers to promote new collagen growth, which thins the skin. Micro-needling can be used on other parts of your body, not just your face. This versatile alternative to expensive laser procedures provides: similar results to laser quicker recovery time no hefty expense! You owe it to yourself to ask us about this wonderful treatment that addresses so many unsightly problems. We know you will love the results! The Surprising Way Micro-Needling Works Of all the clinical anti-ageing treatments on the market, micro-needling, or Collagen Induction Therapy, is perhaps the most unusual in its application for creating younger skin. It works using a roller with numerous tiny, acupuncture-like needles penetrating the skin. Beneath the surface, a healing response is triggered in your skin through the release of growth factors, stimulating collagen and elastin. For you, that means a whole lot of good stuff! A visible reduction in large pores Smoothing wrinkles and filling deep lines Improving depressed acne scarring Improving the appearance of stretch marks Thicker skin for more elasticity Reduction in cellulite Micro-needling is so versatile it can be used on the face, neck and body! And it s suitable for all skin types, including thin and previously lasered skin. We use a topical anaesthetic, which makes the treatment extremely comfortable. Do you have a skin condition we haven t mentioned here? Ask us about it. We can tell you if micro-needling will work for you.

Vitamin supplements for skin concerns Every woman has beauty problems, but not everyone has the money for what can be very expensive solutions sold on the high street. But with a little basic knowledge many of those problems can be eliminated or at least diminished. In this article we'll look at how vitamin supplements can sometimes be that cost-effective solution. Skin helps protect the body from infection, which is why it is important to avoid or minimise skin problems ranging from the small, like an occasional zit, to something more serious like acne. Contrary to popular belief, however, skin problems aren't just found in the very young. Women of all ages can have them. Even skin that is relatively healthy can benefit from vitamin supplements, which help a woman maintain an eternally youthful appearance. Vitamin A is crucial for young looking skin. It helps retain moisture which, in turn, helps decrease those pesky fine lines and even larger wrinkles. Additionally, Vitamin A improves skin elasticity, which is needed to maintain a long-term youthful appearance. The vitamin is available in a lot of today's skin creams and beauty treatments. Vitamin B (biotin) replaces skin protein, which can be lost naturally over time or because of health or environmental issues. Unlike with Vitamin A, Vitamin B can be obtained from foods like bananas and grains such as oatmeal. Vitamin C is critical for collagen production. That means, as the body ages, it is more likely to need additional boosts of this vitamin. Vitamin C insures smooth, silky skin while protecting against environment problems like sunburn. Getting enough Vitamin C is easy too. It can be taken in pill form or obtained from fruits like kiwi and strawberries as well as leafy green vegetables. Vitamin E undoes the signs of environmental exposure. However, in this instance, Vitamin E works best if it is used in conjunction with Vitamin C. A lot of today's lotions and skin care products contain both vitamins. They provide the best method of absorption to help skin. Vitamin K erases the look of dark circles. That's because the vitamin can be absorbed directly into the skin's capillaries, which cause those circles. According to some, Vitamin K is also helpful in reducing brown (or age) spots as well as bruises. Like some other vitamins, this one is best absorbed through skin care products and creams.

3 3 Get Ahead Of Dry Skin! Let us handle your skin from the outside with regular facials, peels and wraps. And let's start now! You take care of the inside. How? A recent study performed at the University Of Naples found that lutein, a plant chemical found in an array of foods, has impressive skin moisturising benefits when consumed! How much do you need? Apparently a 10 mg supplement by 38%, elasticity by 8%, and superficially lipids, or skin oil, by 55%. Together, we'll make beautiful, glowing skin. Full And Curvy? The trick is to minimise those curves, not eliminate them. Look for fitted v-necks, scoops or boat neck shirts and blouses. You want tops that open at the decollete. Dressy, belted blouses and halters help to accentuate your waist. The Most Influential Hairstyle Of All Time The late Audrey Hepburn is still making news. Her hairstyle from "Breakfast at Tiffany's" was voted the most influential hairstyle of all time. Other standout vintage cuts were Marilyn Monroe's platinum blonde hair, Victoria Beckham's "pob" and Jennifer Aniston's "Friends" haircut. Oddly, Aniston hated that 'do! Note to self: Book for a hydrating facial today! Acne And Wrinkles: How To Treat This Unfair Combo! It's a bummer but skin care companies are catching on. Rich, anti-aging products simply won't work for adult acne-prone skin. When your practitioner recommends several products for anti-aging and acne, she's not trying to get you to spend more money! This complicated skin condition requires more care to effectively treat and protect your skin. You'll need an oil mattifier to reduce pore size with glycolic acid and absorb oil and shine. Plus, you want a matte look for your skin--smooth and polished. Skin discoloration is another serious part of your skin and should also be addressed. You can have it all. You just can't get it all in one product! There are two forms of sunscreen, chemical and physical protection. Chemical protection is what absorbs the UV rays, physical protection 'blocks' the rays. We work with zinc oxide, an inert mineral that is healing. Zinc oxide can become an expensive ingredient when the process is triple-milled it means however, that in the manufacturing process, the ingredient becomes 100% invisible when applied onto the skin.

Book for your free consultation today! IPSP Welcome Laura to the team... I ve been working in professional skin care since I trained in the UK and worked in a small boutique salon in the city, until I migrated to Australia in I have always had a particular enthusiasm with waxing, eyebrow shaping especially. I feel that providing a client with well shaped eyebrows can give the appearance of wider, brighter eyes and an instant confidence boost. My speciality area is the anatomy and physiology of the skin. I have always found the skin interesting; it s the largest organ of the human body and performs multiple functions on a daily basis even when we don t take any particular care of it. Any section of the skin can have multiple issues that need addressing at the same time; I enjoy the challenge of identifying and managing those issues for a good outcome for the client. Having suffered personally with acne for 3 years I feel that I can empathise with my clients when they come to me with a concern. Whether it is fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, dryness or acne, I am determined to assist my clients with a realistic result. The most satisfying thing about my job is providing clients with the results that they wish for and see their confidence grow through the process. What I love most about working at Integrity Paramedical Skin Practitioners is its professionalism; I work with an amazing, passionate and friendly team of paramedical practitioners. We all have the same integrity and enthusiastic approach to providing clients with the best possible standard of care. When I m not at work I enjoy my time at the gym and spending time outdoors with friends enjoying the beautiful climate and sites of Queensland. Thank you so much girls for my enzyme treatment yesterday! My skin is feeling so soft and rejuvenated. I am also noticing some impressive changes to my skin after receiving a series of peels... Its so exciting! Thank you again! xxx Katherine Brown Coorparoo Had an amazing enzyme therapy this morning, feeling fantastic, thank you Allison :-) Chrissy Piller Mt Gravatt East Ladies and Gentlemen if you are looking for a skin and health clinic that only has the client best interest at heart then Integrity Paramedical Skin Practitioners is what you have been looking for.

On a personal note, the truly inspirational Claire has touched my heart.

Now that I have completed my laser treatments I am looking forward in working with the team to further improve my health & beauty.
