Factors Contributing to Acne:

STRESS- It is largely a contemporary problem, compounded by work pressure, city life, and lack of sleep.
SUNLIGHT- Sun exposure causes undesirable scaling and drying, it also damages the follicle, exacerbates hyperpigmentation, cause skin cancer, premature aging, " Solar Acne" later in life.
CLIMATE –(Acne Majorca) Heat and humidity causes swelling of the skin which could possibly exert enough pressure on the follicles to further complicate an already existing condition.
PRESSURE/FRICTION- Acne Mechanica affects athletes who wear headbands, baseball caps, and/or football helmets, etc. Note, "teenage Romeos" break out where the telephone rests on one side of their face.
PICKING-Picking nervously without realizing or attacking minor lesions can create huge macular sores and disfiguring scars.
DIET- Though most foods are not associated with acne flare-ups, salty foods containing iodine such as fast foods, salty snacks, and dairy products can cause flare-ups. Other foods that are high in iodides include some types of shellfish, kelp, squid, and asparagus.
INDUSTRIAL FACTORS -Exposure to constant amounts of occlusive grease or airborne grease such as fast food restaurants and mechanics may notice flare-up in their condition.
COSMETICS- Some ingredients in skin care products such as bar soaps may have substances which cause dead skin, oil and bacteria to stick together leading to pore clogging. Also, old make-up may have gone rancid which could cause bacteria in the pores.
HORMONES- May trigger the process in genetically acne-prone skin.

Personalized Skin Care does not make any medical claims and will only suggest appropriate skin care for each individual.

Your skin is constantly producing new cells and oils. This oil becomes sticky and adheres to dead skin, which can clog your pores and cause white heads, black heads and flare ups.

Many acne flare-ups are caused by hormonal imbalances and the skins inability to slough off dead skin cells. Daily exfoliation will reduce blemishes. Genetics play an important role in acneic skin conditions. Although there is no permanent solution, acne is treatable with effective salon treatments and a home skin care regimen.

SKIN CARE TIPS

Drink lots of water.
Exercise helps to eliminate toxins and circulates the blood, therefore giving you healthier skin.
Always protect your skin from the sun with sunscreen whether it is over cast or not.
Avoid sun. However should you be in direct sun; stop using any kind of benzoyl peroxide, bleaching creams, or any AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) a good 3-4 days prior to the day of sun bathing.
Using a pumpkin or cranberry Peel mask once a week would be like giving your skin a "mini facial treatment".
For inflamed skin, treat your skin with purified water ice cubes for about 5-15 minutes. It helps the skin to heal faster and avoid some of the "big ones" from flaring up and becoming sore. Avoid ice if your skin has vascular weakness (broken capillaries).

Make up users
If you wear make-up be sure to remove it completely before using this skin care program. Benzoyl peroxide must get into the pore to fight the bacteria that causes acne. However, cleaning is important, over cleaning can aggravate the skin.

What is LED THERAPY?

In about six to eight 20-minute sessions with the Revitalight Skin Care System, you will notice how different your skin looks and feels. Already cleared for the treatment of acne and pain, and used at reputable physicians’ offices, spas and salons worldwide, Revitalight uses highly advanced LED (Light Emitted Diode) therapy procedures which work by pulsating color into your skin for therapeutic benefits.

Unlike many other non-invasive treatments, the Revitalight LEDs can direct all the light energy from the pulsator to specific problem areas, rather than using the “broad brush” approach used by other LED devices. With this versatility, the red LEDs help prevent aging and promote photo rejuvenation, while amber LEDs trigger pain and arthritis relief and blue LEDs treat acne.

Revitalight’s treatments are safe, affordable and effective. A disposable plastic pulsator cover ensures cleanliness, while trained professionals apply the proper technique to stimulate skin for a smoother, healthier appearance. Your skin will radiate with youth from the colorful glow of the photo pulsation light therapy.

The Revitalight Skin Care System using its red LED light consists of six (on average), 20-minute pain-free sessions 2 time a week for -3 weeks at your skin care professional. Once desired results are obtained, maintenance treatments are recommended every 45-60 days.
