You know the symptoms:
- Enlarged visible blood vessels
- Visible broken capillaries
- Raised red bumps, or acne lesions
- Dry skin that itches and flakes
- Flushing
Rosacea, in all its aggravating forms, can cause a woman to feel unattractive and embarrassed by unexpected flare ups.
We’re glad to say you don’t have to put up with flushing, broken capillaries or enlarged blood vessels any more! Intense Pulsed Light, or IPL, has changed all that.
An IPL beam hits the offending capillaries and blood vessels and shuts them down.
Kaput! No more permanently red skin. Ever. Plus, flushing is dramatically reduced. The results are truly remarkable!
Better yet, the IPL beam affects only the damaged vessels and does not injure surrounding healthy skin.
And the side benefits of this extraordinary treatment? Firmer skin, more even skin tone, brown spots fade, and sun damaged skin takes on a healthy glow.
It’s just that many more reasons to love the woman in the mirror. Ready?

Wash Your Face Twice
Have you noticed your aesthetician cleanses your skin twice when you get a facial?
No, this is not a special method for skin care. However, it is an excellent practice for getting and keeping good skin.
This is especially true at night. Your skin works during the day by turning over new skin. Then you’ve got make-up, pollution and all the stuff floating around in the air at your work place and your home!
And, if you don’t wear make-up at all, that means you have nothing protecting the skin, so more dirt and debris collect like dust on your face!
That’s why cleansing twice is nice. The first wash is called a pre-cleanse, removing the daily build up of dirt, oil, make-up, etc. You’ll notice not a lot of suds form.
The second wash deep cleanses the skin, thoroughly cleaning your pores.
A two-step cleanse morning and evening is an excellent habit to develop. It helps remove excess oils, dirt and debris that your skin is exposed to overnight.

How To Eliminate Large Pores By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
Large pores are tough to eliminate.
You have to be careful in choosing what products or treatments to get so as not to make matters worse. So let’s start with the basics.
Pick the right cleanser. Large pores are often the result of oily skin, sun damage and genetics. Opt for an exfoliant cleanser to wash away the outer layer of dead skin cells, leaving you with smoother skin.
Use Retinoids. These are not only excellent for reducing the appearance of large pores, but they also smooth fine lines and wrinkles!
Get the right moisturizer. Oily skin needs moisturizing too! Balance your skin with an oil-free moisturizer to increase hydration in the skin.
And finally, talk to us about our highly effective treatments that diminish the appearance of large pores, increase collagen production and give you a reason to smile every time you look in the mirror.

Diet and Aging By Beauty Salon Great Missenden – Call Us On 01494 865005
As we grow old, our bodies change. More nutrition is needed, metabolism goes slower, wrinkles appear, and so on.
Our diet plays a huge factor on how we age.
Foods that are high in simple sugars, carbohydrates and bad fats wreak havoc not just on your health, but also your skin!
Skin professionals have long known of the many benefits of applying topical nutrients such as vitamin C to the skin.
In fact, topical application of vitamin C has shown some impressive results in reversing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reducing inflammation, and improving the health of skin.
This is why a lot of skincare companies boast of making products that have vitamins to give your skin a glowing, youthful look.
But we know that it takes more than skin care to make great skin. Too much highly processed food, and sodas will wreak havoc on your health and your skin.
We encourage all of our clients to skip the bad fat, high carb diet. Choose real foods that add more skin glowing effects and health benefits.
The point is to take care of your skin from the inside out. Get facials and other clinical treatments to slow down time.
But choose to keep that love going when you pick up a fork! The treatments and products that you use from us will work so much better.
