Anti-Aging Tricks


With my next birthday fast approaching, I have been researching way to keep my skin looking youthful for longer.
 Here’s a few simple ways to take years off your face.

Microdermabrasion

Our Stefan Concept Salon offers a range of treatments including Microdermabrasion. It is a light cosmetic procedure that exfoliates your skin to gently remove the outer layer of dead skin cells making your face smoother and even-toned.


Exfoliation

Frequent exfoliation is great to increase cell turnover which means new cells are being brought to the surface of the skin. Exfoliation helps to get rid of dead skin cells and will promote a smoother and more radiant appearance. We recommend using the Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant available at Stefan Concept Salon, West End. This product is gentle enough for daily use and helps to balance uneven pigmentation.


Sunscreen

We all know that the sun can contribute to skin aging. Excessive sunlight can accelerate the aging process and can cause age spots, the formation of wrinkles and fine lines and can compromise the firmness and elasticity. Save your skin by using a broad spectrum sunscreen on a daily basis – at least SPF 30. Dermalogica offers a range of products that can protect your skin from the sun. Ask one of our beauty therapists which product will work for your skin at our Stefan Concept Salon in West End.



Anti-Aging Eye Cream

The skin around your eyes is very delicate so take care of it with an anti-aging eye cream. Every time you rub your eyes, you risk breaking blood vessels, which leads to the dark circles under your eyes.  I am keen to try the Dermalogica Intensive Eye Repair Cream from our Concept Salon. It is an ultra-rich cream that helps to repair the signs of prematurely aging skin while antioxidants defend against further damage. It diminishes the appearance of fine lines by infusing skin with hydration. Apply this product after cleansing, gently pat around the eye area, blending inward from the outer corner. This can be used both morning and night. Night time application is especially important as cells regenerate while your body sleeps.



Get More Sleep

Sleep is the cheapest and easiest way to revitalize your body. Try going to bed earlier to give your body more time to recover from the day’s activities. Eight hours is the necessary amount of time your body needs to rest and regenerate. Avoid drinking coffee in the late afternoon and try not to excersied within 3 hours of your bedtime.
