 If You Can Spot It, You Can Stop It A Skin Cancer Awareness Month Reminder from The Skin Cancer Foundation Schedule an Annual Skin Exam With Your Dermatologist! Skin cancer is the world’s most common cancer; here in the U.S. more people are diagnosed with the disease each year than all other cancers combined. When caught and treated early, skin cancer is highly curable. When allowed to progress, however, it can cause disfigurement and even death. That’s why The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends that adults see a dermatologist at least once a year for a skin exam and perform monthly self-exams at home. Anything on your skin that is new, changing or unusual could be cause for concern. Skin Cancer By the Numbers The three most common forms of skin cancer are basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and melanoma. An estimated 4.3 million cases of BCC are diagnosed in the U.S. each year. Only in exceedingly rare cases can it spread to other parts of the body and become life-threatening. It shouldn’t be taken lightly, though: it can be just as disfiguring as other forms of skin cancer if not treated promptly. More than 1 million cases of SCC are diagnosed in the U.S. each year, resulting in more than 15,000 deaths annually. Melanoma, one of the most dangerous forms of skin cancer, is now being diagnosed more frequently than in the past. In 2019, an estimated 192,310 new cases of melanoma will be diagnosed in the U.S.— almost 8 percent more than in 2018. “Skin cancer is an epidemic in this country and we anticipate that incidence will continue to rise,” says Deborah S. Sarnoff, MD, president of The Skin Cancer Foundation. “There is some good news: One of the reasons we’re finding more skin cancers is because more people are getting screened than ever before, and doctors are diagnosing tumors that would have gone undetected in the past.” While melanoma incidence is on the rise, the mortality rate is expected to decrease by 22 percent this year. Significant advances in treatment, better public education and early detection are all contributing to this positive trend. It's impossible to overstate the importance of getting regular skin exams with a dermatologist. Finding a melanoma early can make all the difference in your prognosis — the estimated five-year survival rate for patients whose melanoma is detected early is about 98 percent. The survival rate falls to 64 percent when the disease reaches the lymph nodes and 23 percent when the disease metastasizes to distant organs. A professional skin exam takes only a few minutes out of your day, but it can give you peace of mind for the year. To make the most of your appointment, check your skin beforehand and take note of any new, changing or unusual growths on your skin. Be sure to remove any nail polish from your fingernails and toenails. Direct your dermatologist’s attention to any spots you noticed during your exam of your own skin. Be sure your physician examines hard-to-reach areas like the scalp, soles of the feet and between the toes. Don’t be afraid to ask questions! The Skin Cancer Foundation’s Guide to Skin Self-Exams

 We totally get it, mornings are hard. Most days, you're likely rushing out the door to make it to school or work just barely on time. You might throw on a swipe of mascara and lip gloss and call it a day, but beauty experts agree there's one step you should never skip in your a.m. routine: SUNSCREEN. No, sunscreen isn't a product you should reserve solely for trips to the beach. In this blog we explain the biggest reasons why you should put sunscreen on every morning, also how to choose the right sunscreen for you. You Need Protection, Even When It's Not Sunny Outside You might think sunscreen is only necessary at the height of summer when you've got plans to lounge outside by the pool, but the sun's UV rays are always present. Even on cold and cloudy days, UV rays from the sun can damage your skin. UV rays are actually present year-round and of equal intensity during the daytime throughout the year, including winter. UV rays can even penetrate through clouds and glass. Cloudy days still allow for about 80 percent of the UV exposure as a sunny day. UVB rays are blocked by windows, but the longer wavelengths of UVA that lead to skin aging, sunburn and melanoma can still be transmitted through glass. So if you drive during the day or sit near a window at work, your actually being exposed to UV rays throughout the whole day. You'll Keep Yourself Looking Young for Years to Come The best anti-aging product offered will be your daily SPF. That's because sunscreen protects you from UVA rays, the ones that accelerate signs of aging. UVA are the longer of the UV rays, meaning they can penetrate your skin more deeply. UVA affects collagen structure, transforming the normal triple helix structure that looks like straight, uniform rods of dry spaghetti to broken, fragmented and different-sized tangles. This translates to visible skin changes, including textural changes, wrinkles and a sallow discoloration to the skin. You'll Shield Yourself From Skin Cancer More than four million cases of basal cell carcinoma (the most common form of skin cancer) are diagnosed every year in the United States, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation. One in five will develop skin cancer in their lifetime in America, and one person dies from melanoma every hour according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Those are startling statics, but it's one that can be drastically improved if we all get better at incorporating sunscreen into our daily lives. Daily sunscreen use is the best skin cancer tool short of avoiding direct midday sun exposure altogether. UV rays damage the DNA of skin cells, producing genetic mutations that can lead to cancer. Prevention is always easier than reversal. You'll Steer Clear of Dark Spots Wrinkles aren't the only signs of aging caused by the sun. Sunscreen can also protect your skin from developing brown pigmentation or 'sun spots' which aesthetically age the skin. UVA rays are the ones that lead to dark spots and blotchy hyperpigmentation. UVA causes DNA changes in melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells of our body. You'll Get Added Skin Care Benefits While protecting yourself from skin cancer and preventing premature signs of aging are the major benefits you get from applying sunscreen every morning, there are some additional reasons you should grab a tube the next time you're getting ready. Many of today's sunscreen formulations have added ingredients that can address a variety of skin issues. Mineral sunscreen agents, for example, are anti-inflammatory and can help to calm irritated skin. Many sunscreen formulations also contain moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid which helps make collagen and helps improve the skins barrier, probiotics for active bacteria as well as antioxidants to protect against damaging free radicals. Physical sunscreens also act as a barrier for your face. Just like a light jacket on your body, SPF acts like a jacket for your face. SPF acts as a barrier to protect you not only from UV rays but also from temperature changes, warmth, cold, wind, sun and moisture loss. What to Watch Out For PABA and Trolamine Salicylate should not be used as they give rise to adverse effects including inflammation, Edema and Erythema. Steer clear of organic and chemical suncreens as chemical sunscreens absorb the sun's rays instead of shielding. Avoid active ingredients: Oxybenzone, Avobenzone, Octisalate, Octocrylene, Homosalate and Ocinoxate. How to Choose the Right Sunscreen Before you can apply your morning SPF, you need to figure out which sunscreen is right for you. You should always reach for one that has a broad-spectrum label, as that means it shields your skin from UVA rays (the ones that age you) and UVB rays (the ones that cause burns). Always grab a sunscreen that is 30+. Look for active ingratiates Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide. Ask us during your next appointment what SPF is best suited for you. All SPFs are not created equal, so we will help you find one that fits your specific needs. Information: 6 Reasons You Shouldn't Skip Your Morning SPF (We Know You Do) by Christina Heisler, Web TotalBeauty MedEsthetics April, 2019 Volume 15, Number 3, Page 28 “Better Protection” Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that stimulates collagen production and helps to reduce signs of aging by repairing the damage done by free radicals and the sun.
Vivierskin Vitamin C Serums What makes Vivier's Vitamin C different than other Vitamin C's on the market? Vivier's Vitamin C's are formulated with PHARMACEUTICAL grade Vitamin C, this oil-free sērum helps reduce signs of environmental damage such as fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin texture and tone. Ideal for all skin types especially oily skin. There are 3 key factors that determine the results of a Vitamin C based product. Vivier has met all factors to ensure efficacy of product. 1) Chemical Form – The only form of Vitamin C that can be used in the body is L-Ascorbic Acid. Other forms of Vitamin C, such as Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, are not recognized by the body and must be converted to L-Ascorbic Acid by the body in order to be beneficial. VivierSkin® patented Vitamin C serums contain only L-Ascorbic Acid USP. VivierSkin® Vitamin C serums are formulated using the highest grade of Vitamin C available called “USP”. “USP” stands for United States Pharmacopeia. It is the highest pharmaceutical standard recognized for quality, purity, strength and consistency. 2) Stability – When exposed to air, Vitamin C undergoes oxidation (the process which causes a sliced apple to turn brown). When oxidized, a Vitamin C formulation becomes an oxidant instead of an antioxidant, which is harmful to the skin. The formulation and grade of the Vitamin C in its raw form determine the rate at which the formulation will oxidize. The color of your Vitamin C serum will indicate its stability. Vivier's Vitamin C serums are clear to light yellow, which means they are stable. NOTE: L-Ascorbic Acid USP will tend to oxidize and change to a light yellow color with time. This change in color is natural and will not significantly alter the product's effectiveness. So check your Vitamin C's; orange to brown serums have oxidized and should not be used! 3) Absorption – Vitamin C products in the market differ on how much Vitamin C is actually absorbed and remains within the skin. The absorption of the Vitamin C is impacted by the pH as well as the absorption technology of the formulation. To be absorbed by the skin, the pH of topical Vitamin C must be between 2.3 and 3.8. Vivier Vitamin C serums have an optimal pH between 2.4 and 3.2. - So before you decide to settle for that $20 dollar bottle of Vitamin C on the shelf of the makeup or department store, make sure that it meets the criteria of what a Vitamin C needs to make it BENEFICIAL to your skin. -   Information from: Vivierskin @ http://vivierskin.com.sg/products/  Breast cancer is the second most common kind of cancer in women. About 1 in 8 women born today in the United States will get breast cancer at some point. Have you or someone you know been diagnosed with Breast Cancer? Here at Aesthetic Therapies we see many patients with hair loss on scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes and other skin conditions such as extreme dryness directly related to Cancer and Chemotherapy. We want you to know that we are here to help you look good and feel better. We are Certified Facilitators for the Look Good, Feel Better Program of the American Cancer Society. Your hair and Chemotherapy: Hair loss occurs during chemotherapy because it targets all rapidly dividing cells—healthy cells as well as cancer cells. Hair follicles, the structures in the skin filled with tiny blood vessels that make hair, are some of the fastest-growing cells in the body. If you're not in cancer treatment, your hair follicles divide every 23 to 72 hours. But as the chemo does its work against cancer cells, it also destroys hair cells. This hair loss can be devastating for many, so we are here to help! We offer multiple treatments such as permanent make up for eye lining or eyebrows, permanent make up (3D Design) for Nipples, and PRP Hair Restoration (post 6 months). Along with treatments we carry Revitalash and Zenagen products to promote hair growth too! Through the end of October receive 20% off any related treatment ($110 off per PRP treatment). View our services Your skin and Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy often causes dry, irritated skin. Rather than waiting to deal with symptoms after treatment starts, you can take steps to minimize skin problems about one week before beginning chemo. Then, they can continue the regimen during treatment. There are many things that you can do to prevent dry skin. People tend to think of dry skin as just a cosmetic problem, but dry skin can get so severely dry that it becomes inflamed and more susceptible to infections.

As the tiny microneedle channels heal, your own collagen and elastin are naturally produced. This can cause the skin to shrink and tighten. It requires less healing time than a surgical face lift and can help with fine lines/wrinkles and even scars. This treatment promotes our own body's repair mechanism. What are the benefits of microneedling?
Why We Love PRP What is Platelet-Rich Plasma? Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an extract of your own blood that contains three to five times more platelets, growth factors and active proteins for tissue and injury healing. When PRP is placed back into the skin by injection or microneedling, it initiates a localized stem cell response. Over the next few weeks and months following treatment, this stem cell response recruits collagen-producing cells called fibroblasts. The fibroblasts replace tissue that has been damaged or lost through the aging process with healthy skin. The Real Question What are the benefits of microneedling with PRP? When PRP is used with microneedling, it penetrates your skin through the tiny channels the microneedles create. The PRP supercharges the microneedling benefits. PRP also addresses under-eye puffiness and dark circles to give you a more youthful, well-rested appearance. Since PRP is derived from your own blood, the side effects are virtually eliminated giving you less down time (a day or two). Which areas of the body can be treated with microneedling and PRP?
Who is a good candidate for microneedling with PRP? Microneedling with PRP is a very safe and effective treatment for adults with all skin types who wish to improve their skin quality. The depth of the treatment can be adjusted to meet the client’s individual needs and objectives. Due to its low-risk profile, microneedling with PRP is a good option for people who are not good candidates for lasers, such as those with darker skin types. Microneedling with PRP is also a very powerful tool for treating scars on the face and body (stretch marks). How is the microneedling with PRP procedure performed? First, we apply a topical numbing gel to the treatment area for optimal comfort. Then we insert a new sterile cartridge and select the appropriate depth setting based on your skin’s unique needs. We then apply your prepared PRP solution to the treatment area before and after the microneedling procedure to ensure that the PRP gets fully absorbed in the channels created by the needling. When the treatment is done we send you home with SPF, and give you at home care to fallow for the next 72 hours. What does microneedling feel like? We apply a topical numbing cream prior to the treatment so that discomfort is significantly lessened. Microneedling feels like light sandpaper being moved across the skin. In some areas there is more sensation such as thinner skin on the forehead and around the eyes. How long does the procedure take? A full treatment is about one hour total. The numbing process takes about 30 minutes. If you are having PRP in addition to your microneedling treatment we would draw your blood and centrifuge it to obtain the PRP while you are numbing. The microneedling itself only takes about 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. What is the downtime after the microneedling with PRP? The downtime is minimal with only one to three days of mild redness, depending on the aggressiveness of the treatment. Proper post treatment care will help the recovery process. Many say it is equivalent to a sunburn for the first few days. When microneedling is paired with PRP the downtime is significantly reduced. When will I see results? You’ll notice an immediate “glow” to your skin and it will continue to improve over the next few weeks. It takes a full 4 weeks for your collagen production to finish the recovery process. The full results can be seen up to 6 months post treatment as collagen production continues. If paired with good skin care and good sun protection results can last even longer. How many treatments are needed to see optimal results? We recommend a series of at least 3 to 6 treatments about four to six weeks apart to see the best results. You can then do the treatment about once a year to maintain these results. Treatment numbers may differ depending on skin conditions and concerns.  Before. Immediately After (only minor redness similar to a sunburn that subsides very quickly). Approximately 20 hours After. Notice an overall softer, brighter, more youthful complexion.

Losing your hair can be extremely traumatic both to males and females. Let us help you stop your hair loss today with PRP treatments at Aesthetic Therapies! WHAT IS PLATELET-RICH PLASMA? Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is an autologous concentrated preparation of platelets and the associated growth factors in a small volume of plasma. Platelets are a natural source of a number of growth factors in their natural and biologically-determined ratios. THE SCIENCE BEHIND PRP PRP contains special cells called Platelets, that can theoretically cause growth of the hair follicles by stimulating the stem cells and other cells in the microenvironment of the hair follicle. These special Platelet cells promote healing, accelerates the rate and degree of tissue healing and regeneration, responds to injury, and formation of new cellular growth. The primary purpose of using PRP in hair restoration is to stimulate inactive or newly implanted hair follicles into an active growth phase. WHAT DOES THE PROCEDURE CONSIST OF? First blood is drawn as though you are having routine blood testing. Next the blood is spun down in a centrifuge and the PRP is separated and removed from the rest of the blood. Lastly the highly concentrated platelet rich plasma (PRP) is injected into the scalp. No sedation or any medication is necessary during the procedure, if needed a topical numbing or an air cooling technique can be used.

We want to give you as much information about this amazing new technology and what type of outcomes to expect. This can be a life changing treatment for many! (651)739-5181  Microneedling is designed to address acne scars, symptoms of aging skin, and to increase the efficacy of topical skin-care products. Microneedling is a resurfacing method that’s gaining increasing interest for those seeking smooth, radiant results without the stinging, flaking or downtime of other treatments. This is a technique that uses a needle-studded wand to drive invisible puncture wounds into the skin (potentially down to the dermis) with the goal of inducing collagen growth. Treatments are considerably cheaper than the higher-tech alternative of fractional lasers, which create similar pinpoint channels in the skin. These channels also create openings for products to penetrate deeper and be more effective such as a stem cell product that aids in overall healing and health of the skin. Done regularly, microneedling will make your skin act like it did in your 20s—it’ll be thicker, it’ll glow, it’ll have the most beautiful tone and texture. It can also improve scars, pore size, and stretch marks. It is one of the most asked for treatment in our office this summer. Another great thing about this treatment is that there is little to no downtime, and can be safely done in the summer months. The idea candidates is anyone with: Acne scarring, Fine lines, Hyperpigmentation, Stretch marks, Wrinkles, Uneven texture Benefits of microneedling:
