Prodcuct Highlight - TNS Line Refine By SkinMedica

Dr. Riehs has been a HUGE fan of SkinMedica since he began carrying their line of medically based skin care products.

Part of the 'wonder' of many of SkinMedica's products is the exclusive and effective TNS® ingredient - a combination of multiple human growth factors, cytokines, peptides and natural proteins responsible for the production of collagen and other processes that promote healthy skin.

It's no wonder SkinMedica is all over the news and beauty magazines - they're physician-formulated products, with natural and advanced (chemical) ingredients that are very effective in achieving great results - even for the celebrities!

Next week, we'll be offering a special on TNS® Line Refine from SkinMedica as our product of the week. If you're looking to reduce fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes & mouth and gain some anti-aging benefits of the TNS® complex, then Line Refine is a product for you.

SkinMedica Line Refine is typically applied after moisturizer, twice daily (AM and PM). You can also use it throughout the day, as needed. It's got lots of other great ingredients beyond the TNS® complex (Human Fibroblast Conditioned Media) such as peptides, Dipalmitoyl Hydroxyproline (an amino acid known to increase collagen synthesis), Hyuraluronic Filling Spheres (used to 'fill' and 'plump' lines by absorbing and trapping water), Coenzyme Q10 and more.

It's great for all skin types.

Get Longer Thicker Lashes With RevitaLash®

RevitaLash® is a unique eyelash conditioner that will help you achieve the beautiful look of longer, thicker, and fuller eyelashes. With a consistency and application similar to that of liquid eyeliner, RevitaLash® is simple to use - and only needed once a day. Like MAGIC - within three to ten weeks, your own natural eyelashes will look longer, thicker, fuller, and BEAUTIFUL!

But perhaps the best thing about RevitaLash® is how it came to be. Dr. Michael Brinkenhoff created RevitaLash® while his wife, Gayle, was recovering from the loss of hair effects of chemotherapy treatments for breast cancer. The chemo had caused Gayle's eyelashes to become brittle and fall out. So, he developed a conditioner to revitalize the eyelashes and a new (miracle) product came to be. Both Dr. Brinkenhoff and Gayle, as well as the company (Athena Cosmetics, Inc.) are passionate about giving back by donating a portion of the all RevitaLash® sales to breast cancer research and non-profit breast cancer charities.

If you've been suffering from short, thin or sparse eyelashes - give RevitaLash® a try!

Correct & Replenish with This Week's Product Special

This week - at Le Beau Visage Medical Spa - we're promoting the products that help restore and rejuvenate the skin and reverse the signs of photo aging. What are these miraculous products you might ask? They're SkinCeuticals Vitamin C Serums, of course.

And this week - we're giving away a FREE Jane Iredale Lip Drink with the purchase of a Phloretin CF® vitamin C serum from SkinCeuticals.

Phloretin CF® is the "best of the best" when it comes to preventive and topical antioxidant serums. It restores and corrects the signs of photo aging and sun damage - at a cellular level.

But what is it, exactly? It's a state of the art combination of vitamin C, phloretin (an amazing plant extract/chemical found in apple tree leaves) and ferulic acid - to provide broad-spectrum restorative support to your skin (UVA, UVB, free radicals and all types of sun damage and photo aging).

Here are just a few of the benefits of using a super-power serum as a part of your daily regimen:

• Prevents damage by preventing the cellular mutations caused by free radicals and sun damage (photo aging) literally - by shielding your skin's precious DNA.
• Restores youthful skin by encouraging cellular renewal and turnover
• It increases the skin's support structure, reduces and inhibits pigmentation caused by damaging solar rays, and tightens and tones the skin for an overall more youthful appearance.

Vitamin C Serums are NOT an overnight sensation that will cause you to look 10 years younger after 2 weeks of use. Rather - Vitamin C Serums should be used as a part of a daily regimen to restore and repair your skin from damage that's already occured - as well as prevent and block future damage from the boiling rays of summer.

And don't forget - even during the winter and on cloudy days the rays of the sun can cause serious damage. Don't leave the house without your broad-spectrum sunscreen - protect your skin and keep it looking young and healthy.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS

Mark your calendars - the annual BOOTOX Botox® Party is just around the corner! We'll have SPOOK-TACULAR specials on your favorite treatments and products - as well as a night of firey or fizzling drinks, terrifying treats to eat and MORE.

It's always a HUGE hit so be sure to RSVP to Donna at 214-705-7676 as soon as possible to reserve your space.

Smoother, Younger Skin With Fraxel

What if you could literally - grow new skin? With Fraxel laser therapy - you can have fresh, new skin. Fraxel treatment is a safe, non-invasive laser skin treatment that promotes dramatic results through collagen remodeling. This means - the process uses your body's own natural ability to heal itself - to simulate collagen production. This treatment promotes younger-looking skin without the side effects, risks or long downtime of other procedures.

Fraxel Laser therapy treats sun damage, pigmentation problems, melasma, wrinkles - and other signs of aging. The laser effects tiny fractions of skin tissue at a time, with thousands of microscopic laser columns — each just one-tenth the diameter of a hair follicle. Then, your body's natural healing abilities take care of the rest, working from the inside out, replacing damaged tissue with brand new, healthier skin.

Fraxel treatment is unique - as the first non-invasive treatment of its kind and a safe and effective solution for someone with a busy lifestyle.

Healthy Beautiful Lips

Having soft, supple and kissable lips is all about keeping the skin on your lips healthy.

Start with a regular regimen of cleansing and exfoliating your skin - and lips. After cleansing - prevent chapping by using a non-petroleum lip balm that offers true moisturization and hydration of the lips. Petroleum based products can actually dry your lips - while only making them 'feel' moist. Here's another tip - there are great products out there that also an SPF which further protects your lips from the damaging rays of the sun.

Another preventative measure is to include antioxidant protection for your lips. We're huge fans of Antioxidant Lip Repair by SkinCeuticals. Use of antioxidants helps reduce signs of aging and protects your skin from damaging free radicals.

Looking to 'plump things up'? There are several options to make your lips appear more full. You could opt to inject a dermal filler into your lips to enhance their appearance and create fullness. A less-expensive and non-injectible option would be to use a lip plumper product. We offer a few options in lip plump systems, such as Skin Medica TNS Lip Plump System.

There are always treatments and products to help you keep your lips and lip skin their healthiest - protected from the Summer sun - and looking their best.
