Is Cosmetic Surgery the most popular way of turning back the clock? It’s Not!
The #1 Medical Spa treatment is Chemical Peels
Chemical Peels increase collagen 200%, increase skins ability to self moisturize 150%, increase firmness 35%, smooth skin 44%, reduce wrinkles 55%. With no down time and in most cases under $100.
Who is a good candidate for a chemical peel?
Generally, lighter skinned individuals are better candidates for chemical peels as darker pigmented skin may experience uneven skin tones.
What can I expect?
The professional who does your peel will first clean your skin thoroughly. Then he or she will apply one or more chemical solutions — such as glycolic acid, trichloroacetic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, or carbolic acid (phenol) — to small areas of your skin at a time completely covering the area that creates a controlled peel, letting new healthy cells take its place.
During a chemical peel, most people feel a burning sensation that lasts about five to ten minutes, followed by a stinging sensation. Putting cool compresses on the skin will ease that stinging.
Glycolic Acid is one of the most popular natural skin peeling treatments. 70% acid is a deep strength peel that is for mature, sun damaged, or aging skin not recommended for the first time user. Initially 30-50% acid peels are used gradually increasing to 70-100% acid.
Glycolic Acid peels will show dramatic results by removing pore-clogging debris evenly and stimulating healthy new skin cells encouraging elastin and collagen growth.
Alphahydroxy Acids (AHAs) such as Glycolic Acid are the mildest of the peel formulas and produce amazing results with no down time offering smoother, brighter, healthier – looking skin.
No anesthesia is needed for AHA peels since they cause only a slight stinging sensation during the application. Protecting skin from the sun is important following a chemical peel and should be worn daily.
Chemical peels are cumulative, meaning the results improve with continued treatments.
Before You Get a Chemical Peel Consider a Medical Microdermabrasion
It is recommended that you have a Medical Microdermabrasion prior to a chemical peel to remove several layers of dead skin cells that build from environment and sun exposure. Microdermabrasion is a manual correction of dead skin cells that are gently abraded off. The results are immediate after a Medical Microdermabrasion, improving the skin tone and texture. Microdermabrasion renders the skin for deeper penetration of the chemical peel. It is necessary to wait a week after your microderm to have a chemical peel to avoid any down time. The skin is able to absorb a L-Ascorbic acid, liquid vitamin C, after this treatment encouraging collagen fibers to regenerate. Facial skin normally is not available to the benefits of a vitamin c application because of the dead skin cells that build up over time. These treatments can be done during a lunch break. Combining the two with medical skin care will result in healthy skin beyond the surface for an authentic, esthetic, long lasting correction for ageless skin.

How An Organic Facial Treatment Can Benefit You
Everyday life can take a toll on your skin, especially the face. Sunlight, wind and even constant touching by oily hands can do damage, as well as the natural process of dead skin cells sloughing off. Those cells can clog pores causing breakouts or giving skin an aged appearance.
Fortunately, a deep cleansing organic facial or chemical peel can rejuvenate, relax and exfoliate. The process removes dead skin cells leaving skin younger looking, moisturized and healthy. As an added benefit getting a facial can be an extremely relaxing, pampering experience.
The Organic Facial Treatment Process
Every facial starts by cleansing and exfoliating the skin. At Pretty Face Medispa the signature, organic facial, created by a local herbalist, cleanses with goats milk, colloidal oatmeal and Norwegian Kelp. That process removes any dead skin, residual makeup and dust or dirt on the face, revealing a new layer of skin. Rose water toner and Eucalyptus soaked towels conclude the facial with a pleasant degree of pampering.
If you crave a chance to feel pampered and rejuvenated consider an organic facial from Pretty Face Medispa. You’ll be glad you did!

Laser Hair Removal Vs. Electrolysis – Summer’s Coming….
If you’re sick of shaving hard to reach places or dealing with unwanted facial hair permanent removal can be very appealing. Of course you must then make the decision between laser hair removal and electrolysis, which can be tricky. There are pros and cons to each treatment type.
The Differences
Laser hair removal works by targeting melanin so it is most effective on areas with dark hair such as the under arms, bikini area, legs and arms. These areas have fully active follicles and are treated in sections during laser hair removal.
Electrolysis targets each follicle individually. A skilled, qualified technician inserts a sterile tube into each follicle and shocks it. This method is a little more particular and time consuming, but 100% effective. The follicles don’t have to be active or the skin dark. For this reason, electrolysis is commonly used on the face and other small areas.
Choosing treatment can be confusing, that’s why it’s important to have professionals, like those at Pretty Face Medispa talk to you about options. They will help you come to the decision that best meets your needs.

Perfectly Placed Permanent Makeup Eyebrows – Complimentary Consultation
Even though they aren’t as crucial in terms of the five senses, eyebrows are one of the most important facial features to looking your best. Well-formed brows frame the eyes and determine the angles of the face. If you pencil in your eyebrows every day it’s time you consider Permanent Makeup as a solution.
It is tempting take complete control of eyebrow management at home with your own application, but this method isn’t foolproof, takes time and costs money every month. Focusing on one eye at a time can lead to over application and shaky hands create frustration. Besides, everyone knows at home efforts rarely live up to professional and permanent application.
Advantages of Using An Expert Permanent Makeup Artist
Professional permanent makeup is by far and away better than doing it yourself for a number of reasons. First, the professionals have a detailed understanding of facial proportions. They know how to best lift the eye and keep the face looking youthful and vibrant. Second, they have the objectivity and literal distance to make that happen.
With your face squished up next to a mirror with pencil in hand, the average woman isn’t fully aware of how each individual hair should appear in relation to the others, especially when it comes to the symmetry of other eye. There isn’t any distance. Plus, you have a limited amount of time to complete the procedure each morning and just want to get it done so you can start your day.
In addition to objectivity and training, professional permanent makeup artists have experience reshaping all sorts of eyebrows on all sorts of faces. So put away the pencils away and treat yourself to a perfectly placed permanent makeup eyebrows.

The Laser 360 Difference
Over time, the sun and aging cause our once firm skin to sag and wrinkle. This is especially true of the face, which experiences extensive use due to a variety of facial expressions and movement. Sometimes this can cause the appearance of aging in people with otherwise youthful, energetic lives.
Since your face is the first thing you present to the world it is important that it reflect your youthful spirit and energy level. Three Laser 360 skin resurfacing treatments over the span of a few months can rejuvenate and renew skins previous youthful appearance.
How does it work?
Three light sources project lasers on the skin, giving deep collagen stimulation. Collagen is the structure that keeps skin firm and youthful. Over time it can disintegrate or not be produced as readily. Stimulating it naturally improves skin texture and tone, while removing fine lines and wrinkles. Laser 360 treatments can also do wonders on odd pigmentation and vascular marks. The three different technologies ensure that the effect is thorough and lasting.
Unlike a face lift, this method is non-surgical; instead lasers penetrate deep below the skin level to heat and stimulate the deepest layers of the skin. If you’re ready to experience fresher, smoother, younger looking skin consider laser 360 skin resurfacing.

Protect Your Skin During EVERY Season
The changing seasons can be hard on your skin. Just like you have different clothing needs as the weather changes, your skin needs different care depending on the seasons. Looking after your skin as the seasons change can protect your youthful appearance for years to come.
The cold winter months have a serious drying effect on your skin. Your skin needs extra moisture to avoid becoming dry and chapped. During the colder months, make sure you use a high quality body lotion on your arms, legs, and all exposed skin other than your face.
The skin on your face is more delicate and needs special attention. Choose a light, non-clogging facial moisturizer. Look for one with a minimum SPF of 30. You might not notice the sun during the colder months, but those rays are still potential damaging to your skin. Taking these simple steps can help your skin stay soft, youthful and healthy for years to come.
Unfortunately, moisturizer and preventive care cannot reverse damage already caused by the elements. At Pretty Face Medispa we offer several solutions to restore youth and beauty to your skin. Our services range from organic, natural facials, medical microdermabrasion to remove several layers of dead dull skin to injectable treatments like Botox, to laser skin resurfacing treatments.
