Renu Derma Natural Cosmetics Adds Exfoliating Brush to Natural Anti-Aging Skin Care Line

Salisbury, NC (PRWEB) March 26, 2013
Renu Derma is excited to announce the addition of a 4 in 1 electric exfoliating brush to the natural anti-aging skin care line. Cosmetologists and dermatologists agree that regular exfoliation is an important step to prevent aging and maintain skins healthy and youthful appearance. If skin care products are applied to the impenetrable debris of dead skin cells, the price or quality of the products dont truly make a difference. They cant penetrate the layer of dead skin so the customer will see little or no results in her skin.
The 4 in 1 exfoliating brush is a great addition to Renu Derma`s best-selling 3 in 1 rejuvenating mask which serves as a microdermabrasion facial. When the two are used in combination, skin rejuvenation results are immediate and visible. Renu Derma client Laurie Basinger Shuping comments, The mask is fantastic. I used it Thursday night and my daughter commented on Friday how young my skin looked.
Renu Dermas skin care consultants noticed a number of customers with adult acne.
While this issue can be directly connected with hormonal imbalance, it also can be aggravated by increased oil production and clogged pores. With regular weekly use, the 3 in 1 mask and the 4 in 1 exfoliating brush fight clogged pores, remove blackheads, normalize oil levels and reduce enlarged pores.
Anti-aging is a complex process, confides Renu Derma Founder Maia Smith. It is very important to address any hormonal imbalance issues that may contribute to your overall health as well as for skin that looks and feels younger. Spiritual health is also a key component for beauty and anti-aging.
As a leading Beauty and Image Expert, Smith is deeply involved in educating and inspiring women to make healthy life choices. She shared How Hormonal Imbalance Can Harm You on her popular blog and Renu Derma Natural Cosmetics organized and sponsored a seminar regarding this same issue hosting Dr. Christopher Nagys presentation on the importance of balanced hormones.
As part of Renu Dermas mission to educate, inspire and help women beyond topical skin care, another seminar is planned for April 22 when Maia Smith and Dr. Terry Cassell will help attendees understand how to achieve a balanced and successful life.To find transcripts from seminar visit company's blog page.
Renu Derma Natural Cosmetics provides organic, anti-aging products for people who desire natural, effective skincare. Maia Smith, Founder and CEO, is a leading Image and Beauty Expert who has appeared in womens magazines and newsletters. She has over twenty thousand page views and database of four thousand loyal members.

Pretty Mommies Comments On Why Obgyns Are Now Interested In Skin Care
Years ago, nutritional supplements, prenatal vitamins and maternity helpful accessories were not commonly found and retailed in Obgyn practices but today times have changed and evolved. Information concerning benefits of using these type of products while expecting is abundant and therefore necessary for physicians to educate their patients concerning the advantages.
Obgyns are regularly asked by their pregnant patients about lifestyle changes they must make now that theyre pregnant. In fact, most offices give out welcome packages to all of their newly pregnant patients that address these questions and are loaded with helpful information, recommendations and guidelines to follow. In addition to the common questions regarding diet, rest and exercise obstetricians are also frequently asked about what skin care products are safe and until recently many would refer their patient to a dermatologist.
It is common for dermatologists and plastic surgeons to feature skin care products in their practice because this is their area of expertise. Physicians can design a skin care regimen based on their patients needs and the patient can leave the office with the recommended products.
Today, many Obstetrics and Gynecology practices are taking their patient care to a new level. They are providing complete and comprehensive information, covering all the areas that are crucial to safety during pregnancy and this includes skin care.
Surprisingly Pretty Mommies is the first physician maternity skin care line, says Gina Zeiger, President/Founder of Pretty Mommies Skin Care. At first we were primarily offered in dermatologists and plastic surgeons offices as a replacement to their prescription skin care products, when one of their patients became pregnant. However, due to the growing evidence of safety issues while pregnant with many over-the-counter cosmetic products we are gaining wide spread recognition by Obgyns. Even though Pretty Mommies is a new concept, doctors quickly understand the importance of a line like ours. Obgyn practices that carry our products are changing the standard of obstetric care.
Pretty Mommies Maternity Skin Care is the #1 physician recommended maternity skin care line. Their safe, all natural products are in 21 states in hundreds of physicians offices.

Stem Cells Skin Care Does it Work?

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) April 06, 2013
According to a recent Harpers Bazaar article, stem cells have been discovered to offer effective anti-aging properties. A new skin care company is offering a treatment using ones own stem cells that claims to be the solution for fine lines and wrinkles (Go to: goo.gl/Nqegn).
I appreciate the work of other physicians pushing the boundaries of skin care and science, says Dr. Ourian, Medical Director of Epione Beverly Hills. In this instance, I would need to see additional positive data before Id offer the treatment to my patients.
Those choosing this new skin therapy undergo a type of liposuction with an approved plastic surgeon. A few ounces of fat tissue are removed from the body, placed in a cooler, and sent to a lab. There the stem cells are separated from the rest of the fatty tissue obtained during the liposuction procedure. The cells are then cultured in a growth solution, with the final product being a client specific skin care product.
Over the last several years, aesthetic practitioners have been using autologous fat transfers in which fatty tissue taken from one area of a client's body is transplanted into another part of the body. This procedure can make faces and lips look healthier and fuller. The treatment in the report is the first to use one's own stem cells to cultivate a personalized skin care product to stimulate the skin's healing abilities.
According to the article, users of this new line say that the product effectively reduces wrinkles and fine lines. Further, researchers found that out of 19 clients, 95 percent reported improved skin texture within just 4 weeks of using the product, reduction in fine lines that was visible was reported by 81 percent, and 87 percent of clients reported a more youthful appearance.
Critics point out that a major drawback of this procedure is its costly nature, with procedures such as Botox and dermal fillers in the same price range. I have to say that, for now, Im in agreement with the critics, says Dr. Ourian. Why pay for something you hope will work when for the same money you can receive a treatment we know will be effective?
Dr. Ourian has been a pioneer in laser technology and non-invasive aesthetic procedures including Restylane, Juv
SpiritDetox.com Provides Advice on Skin Care in Newly Published Article

Bakersfield, California (PRWEB) April 09, 2013
Health and wellness retailer SpiritDetox.com has announced the publication of an article entitled "Clay as an Acne Solution: Rid Yourself of Acne and Skin Problems Once and for All." The new article joins the extensive database of articles on the SpiritDetox.com site that help people find natural solutions to common health and beauty concerns.
"Acne is a debilitating and embarrassing condition for those who suffer from it on a regular basis," stated Albert Milligan, the company's owner. "We have found that clay is a natural healer for the inflammation that causes acne, yet few people are aware of its use for this concern. With this article, we hope to help more people understand how living clay can heal their skin."
The article explains that hygiene is rarely the cause of acne problems. Instead, according to the article, the problems lie below the skin. That is why clay appears to be so helpful. It helps hydrate the skin and draw out toxins, which helps lessen breakouts and treat chronic acne problems.
"Many cleansing products are harsh and create increased problems with acne," warns Mr. Milligan. "This is not the case with clay, which is completely natural and promotes the body's own ability to heal."
About SpiritDetox.com
SpiritDetox.com is an online retailer that sells clay-based products, including detox products, supplements, beauty products and pet care products. For a full list of products offered or for more information on the power of healing clay, visit them at http://www.spiritdetox.com.

Vascular Specialist at Salem Skin and Vein Specialists Continues to Learn the Latest Vein Treatment Approaches in Pursuit of Superior Patient Care

(PRWEB) April 15, 2013
For Phillip Moore, MD, lifelong learning is an integral part of his dedication to providing superior patient care. A vascular surgeon at Salem Skin and Vein Specialists, a leading vein treatment center in Winston-Salem, NC, Dr. Moore recently attended the 25th anniversary meeting of the American Venous Forum, and learned some of the latest advancements in vein care.
The meeting, held in Phoenix, Arizona, is one of the premier conferences for vein specialists. Vein experts from around the country and the world gathered to discuss the latest research findings and clinical advancements. Dr. Moore attended lectures on a variety of topics in venous disease, including a particularly informative talk on pelvic venous congestion. The vein surgeon also heard about the newest improvements in varicose vein and spider vein treatment, and returned to his Winston-Salem vein center with advanced knowledge he can put directly into practice to improve patient outcomes.
Based on the information presented during the meeting, I will be making several small changes in the way I treat superficial vein disease, said Dr. Moore. For example, small modifications to our procedure for venous ablation of the greater saphenous vein should help reduce the risk of DVT after the procedure.
Dr. Moore found the conference to be highly valuable and says he will be in attendance again next year as a newly inducted member in the elite society.

aylabeauty.com Introduces VOYA Organic Skin Care to the US: Cult-Status Irish Natural Skincare Brand Features Hand-Harvested Seaweed from the Atlantic Coast

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) April 16, 2013
Ayla (aylabeauty.com), an online natural skin care boutique, is bringing VOYA skin care to the broader US market. VOYA is a family-owned Irish business that has developed the worlds first range of certified organic seaweed based products. Utilizing generations of acquired wisdom about the sea, VOYAs natural beauty products are designed to purify the skin and body.
aylabeauty.com is delighted to be VOYAs first online retailer, stated Dara Kennedy, founder of Ayla. These organic skin care products, which are currently only carried in the US in high-end spas, are exceptional. Every product in the line features certified organic seaweed from the coast of Ireland seaweed which has been sustainably hand-harvested and prepared for formulation within two hours in order to harness its full detoxifying and anti-aging power. Seaweed is natures most powerful antioxidant, and it helps a variety of skin conditions ranging from aging to cellulite to eczema.
Inspired by the long-standing local traditions of seaweed baths in Strandhill County, Ireland first established in 1912 VOYA organic skin care treatments blend the finest organic ingredients with the family-owned companys natural seaweed extracts. Due to VOYAs practice of dehydrating the seaweed within hours of its harvest, the algaes cell structures are left intact and harmful preservatives are not necessary in the companys formulations. As a result, the full recuperative power of wild seaweed is preserved in the products so that users can benefit from the maximum amount of vitamins, minerals, and proteins. Additionally, VOYA uses only sustainable harvesting practices to protect the delicate coastal environment.
This very special, unique line of natural skin care products will be a great addition to aylabeauty.com, notes Kennedy. The range includes organic body care such as Lazy Days, an extraordinarily powerful detoxifying seaweed bath, as well as a suite of organic facial skincare products, such as Cleanse and Mend Anti-Aging Cleanser, Me Time Moisturizer, and Love A Scrub, which all contain a very high concentration of anti-aging seaweed extracts as well as organic collagen enhancers and restorative botanicals. These skin care products not only smell and feel luxurious, but also deliver clear results. We expect them to be top sellers.
Ayla (http://www.aylabeauty.com) is thrilled to make this powerful line of organic skin care products available to US consumers starting in April 2013. Those interested in learning more or purchasing VOYA can visit aylabeauty.com.

Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month: Skin Check-ups and Laser Technology Team Up in the Fight Against Skin Cancer
One in five Americans will develop a type of skin cancer at some point in life; annual indoor tanning increases that chance by 20 percent. There are several different types of skin cancer, each with its own unique characteristics. Skin cancers include basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and the most serious form, melanoma. Melanoma is both serious and difficult to treat, especially in later stages. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, it is important to check for skin cancer at least once a year with full body check by a knowledgeable dermatologist. It is also recommended that suncreen with SPF 30 or higher be worn as a first line of defense.
Precancerous cells, such as actinic keratosis are the first indicators of danger. It is a scaly lesion most commonly found on the face and back of the hands of those with fair skin, which can be treated using a laser technology called Fraxel Re:store Dual. The Fraxel Re:store Dual laser is a non-invasive resurfacing system used to treat wrinkles, loose skin, sun damage, and is FDA-approved to treat precancerous lesions before they become life threatening. The Fraxel laser treats the skin by fractionally treating microscopic sections of the skin at a time, while stimulating the skins natural repair system to replace damaged cells with healthier tissue. This leaves behind a newer, tighter and cancer-free layer of skin.
Fraxel has become an extremely useful preemptive measure in the fight against skin cancer, by catching and destroying precancerous cells before they worsen. Dr. Rokhsar was the first physician to introduce Fraxel Laser technology to the United States and medical community after working with a prototype for over a year, giving him unparalleled experience.
The Fraxel Dual laser is successful in replacing precancerous cells with healthy ones, Dr. Rokhsar says. After working with the Fraxel laser so extensively, it has proven effective in treating cells that could potentially turn cancerous if not treated, making it an important tool against skin cancer.
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) utilizes alpha lipoic acid (ALA), a substance that enhances the absorption of laser or blue light into the skin, thereby destroying precancerous cells, improving skin tone and erasing sun damage.There are other precancerous lesions that patients should also be aware of besides actinic keratosis. Dysplastic nevi syndrome is a marker for patients that may develop melanoma later on. Early detection and treatment through regular checkups for skin cancer with a board-certified dermatologist, is vital for the cure of skin cancer, and if caught early virtually all types of skin cancer are curable.
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common type of skin cancer in the United States, it also grows slowly and rarely metastasizes (spreads to other areas of the body). However, if left untreated, basal cell will continue to grow, invade and destroy the surrounding skin and tissues beneath the skin. The major cause of developing basal cell carcinoma is overexposure to ultraviolet light; from either the outdoors natural light of the sun or from indoor tanning beds.
While it is important for people to be able to recognize a basal cell carcinoma growth at home, it should still be examined and confirmed by a dermatologist because it is often mistaken for other skin conditions such as acne, cysts, eczema or psoriasis. It appears as a pink or pearly white lesion or sore that can easily bleed, crust over or heal poorly. They are characterized as dome or nodule shapes, flat growths, or scar-like lesions.
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common form of skin cancer in the United States. The most common cause of squamous cell carcinoma is also the overexposure to ultraviolet light from the sun or tanning beds. It can develop anywhere along the body, although the most prevalently exposed areas, such as the head, neck, hands, shoulders, and lower legs, are the most common. Squamous cell carcinoma lesions appear as hard, superficial, dark red growths that become dome-shaped as they get larger and can sometimes look like dry skin patches.
The most infamously dangerous type of skin cancer is melanoma, which accounts for more than 9 to 12-thousand skin cancer deaths each year and can appear on any area of the body. In the United States, it is the 5th most common cancer in men, and the 7th most common cancer in women. Melanoma typically resembles a mole; however if the pigmentation of the area is not uniform or if the diameter is greater than 6 millimeters, it should be examined by a dermatologist. Surgery for melanoma can be effective only if the melanoma is caught early.
Treating basal and squamous cell carcinoma depend on many factors including the type, location and age of the growth. One method is cryotherapy, which involves killing the cancerous cells by freezing them with liquid nitrogen. However, it is most effectively treated by the MOHS Micrographic surgery procedure. The lesion is removed and examined under a microscope to ensure complete removal of the cancerous cells. Because the skin is removed in careful layers, the technique salvages as much healthy skin as possible. The MOHS Micrographic surgery is especially useful in areas of cosmetic concern, such as the face. Regular checkups should follow afterwards to guarantee minimalistic scarring and healthy healing process. Physicians who can perform MOHS surgery, such as Dr. Rokhsar, must be specially licensed with one additional year of training.
Dr. Cameron K. Rokhsar, M.D., is the leading authority in laser surgery and non-invasive techniques and has trained more physicians on the use of the Fraxel laser in the United States and internationally than any other physician. He is also a MOHS Micrographic trained surgeon with years of experience in the procedure. A graduate of Harvard and New York University, Dr. Rokhsar is a fellowship-trained dermatologist and laser surgeon and extensively published medical author and Professor of Dermatology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. His offices are located in New York City and Garden City, Long Island.
