Microdermal Needling for Perfect Skin

From large pores to stretch marks, there are many skin imperfections that cause us to criticize ourselves. And although we should love our bodies regardless, the specialists at Radiance Medspa know that sometimes we need a little pampering to feel better. That is why we offer micro-dermal needling - the top treatment to help you look and feel radiant. Here’s how it works:

MD Pen
For microdermal needling (aka collagen induction therapy), many specialists use advanced technology like the MD Pen. The MD Pen initiates the body’s natural healing process. It is the most powerful micro needling device in skincare today and works at a rate of 13,500 RPM. Because this device moves so quickly, it helps to minimize damage to the skin as well as pain and discomfort.

Depending upon the patient’s needs, two different types of needles may be chosen - the refined needle (ideal for superficial treatments) and the restore needle (best for treatments on all face and body areas). 

Results
Microdermal Needling causes an increase in the production of collagen and elastin. And on the surface, it allows for the absorption of hyaluronic acid or PRP, ultimately smoothing out, tightening, and lifting the skin.

If you’re looking to banish your skin’s imperfections, microdermal needling might be the answer! It is the perfect solution for anyone looking to diminish wrinkles, photo aging, and pore size. At Radiance Medspa, we offer microdermal needling using the latest innovation in fractional micro needling. To learn more about how what this treatment can do for you, call us at (630) 221-1883.

New Year, New Beauty Routine

If the New Year means being the best version of you, why not pamper your beautiful skin? The secret to radiant skin is all about hydration and protection. As beauty products evolve and your daily routine changes, here is how you can change up your beauty routine for 2016:

Treat your neck. Don’t neglect your neck and chest area just because it’s turtleneck season! Continue to hydrate your decolletage just as you would during the summer months simply by taking advantage of vitamin B3-rich masks as well as facials. 

Purchase a humidifier. The dry, cold winter air can suck all the moisture out of your skin. Rehydrate by getting a humidifier and using in your home or even in the workplace often. Did we mention it can also double as a fan in the summer months?

Leave blemishes alone. This year, put behind the bad habit of picking away tiny imperfections. Turns out that imperfections, such as white spots protect your skin from infection and aid in the healing process. Instead, let them heal on their own.

Disinfect everything. From your makeup brushes to the screen on your mobile device, be sure to disinfect everything that comes in contact with your skin. All the oils and bacteria that collects on such objects can cause serious breakouts on your face, so disinfect them with cleansing towelettes.

Make a promise to yourself that you will create the best and most radiant version of yourself by adopting new skincare techniques. And don’t forget to pamper yourself with facial treatments from Radiance Medspa! We believe that everyone’s skin deserves special treatment, which is why we offer a personalized skincare approach to help you look and feel nothing short of radiant!

Healthy Food Trends for 2016

Want to slim down and get healthy for 2016? Part of getting in the best shape of your life means keeping up with the latest food trends. Find out some of the latest and greatest ways to lose weight below:

Portion Control. Eating your favorite foods in moderation is key to maintaining a healthy diet. To monitor your breakfast, lunch, and dinner portions more closely, consider preparing your meals in bowls instead of on large dinner plates. This way, you can get your protein, grains, and veggies in the proper proportions.

Seaweed. Kale has been all the rage in recent years, but 2016 will be all about seaweed. Why? Because its benefits are endless! Not only is it good for the skin, but it’s also excellent for your digestive tract, as it contains lots of fiber. Seaweed contains a rich source of minerals that make it a smart alternative to other salty, processed foods and vegetables. Add it to your salad with a hint of soy sauce and ginger juice.

Green Tea. Keep on drinking that traditional green tea, but don’t forget to give Matcha a try. Matcha is a Japanese green tea in powder form that can be mixed into hot water or milk. This alternative is rich in antioxidants and can help you detox your way through 2016.

Yams. Skip that baked potato for a healthier, sweeter option like yams. This root vegetable not only satisfies your taste buds, but is also packed with vitamin B, vitamin C, and potassium. Did we also mention it’s an excellent energy-rich food that can boost your metabolism? After all, a quick metabolism rate is one of the key ingredients to slimming down and staying healthy.

Of course, staying healthy and slimming down means also adding some exercise into your weekly schedule. But sometimes exercise and eating the right foods just doesn’t cut it. If you’re looking for the safest, most efficient way to slim down and stay healthy, then a Medical Weight Loss Program might be the solution for you!

Skincare Resolutions for the New Year

New year, new you? If your New Year’s resolution is to be your best self yet, why not start with your skin? Healthy skin means you’ll feel more comfortable and confident in your body.

At Radiance Medspa, we want to help you look and feel radiant as ever! So make the new year all about taking care of your skin and overall health with these four beauty tips for 2016:

1. Quit smoking - Smoking is bad for your health for many reasons. One of those reasons being poor skin. You’ve probably heard that more puffs means more wrinkles and premature aging. The reason? Smoking lowers your body’s source of vitamin C, which means you’re more susceptible to sunburn. So if you've been meaning to put a stop to this bad habit, 2016 is the perfect opportunity to do so!

2. Eat a more balanced diet - From vitamins to water, there are plenty of ways to adopt a more balanced diet. Eating healthier is a common New Year’s resolution, but if you’re specifically looking for foods that support your skin, try adding more anthocyanin, vitamins, and healthy fats to your diet.

3. Get a better night's sleep - It’s not just a myth! The more rested you are, the more your skin will thank you. The more beauty rest you receive, the less cortisol (stress hormone) your body will produce, which means less inflammation and eczema.

4. Treat your skin - Facial treatments are a wonderful way to reward yourself after a long, hard-working year. Chemical peels, for instance, can rejuvenate your skin and safely treat fine wrinkles without any downtime at all! And custom facials are designed to prevent aging skin and promote the growth of healthy cells and collagen.

At Radiance Medspa, ring in the new year by treating yourself to one of our many facial treatments! We believe that everyone’s skin deserves special treatment, which is why we offer a personalized skincare approach to help you look and feel nothing short of radiant!
