All About Electrolysis!

September, 2016

Electrolysis

Electrolysis is a method of removing individual hairs from the face or body. It is currently the only FDA-approved method for permanent hair removal. At Skin Studio in Brighton, we apply a minimum amount of electricity to the base of the follicle. During this process, a fine probe is put into the follicle and removed. This process destroys the hair growth tissue. Therefore, the hair follicle loses its re-forming ability. Schedule a free consultation with our registered electrologist, Lana today!

What about the necessary number of treatments?

The number of treatments necessary varies with each client. Treatment sessions can range from 15 minutes to more than an hour depending on the treatment area. Factors such as hair growth cycles, the quantity and structure of hair presented, previous use of temporary hair removal methods, medication use and stress, influence the treatment program for each individual. It is also important to follow the recommended treatment plan to achieve the best results.

What causes unwanted hair growth?

Most importantly, hair growth is the result of heredity and hormone levels. Also, some drugs, temporary methods of hair removal, and illnesses can stimulate hair growth.

Can electrolysis remove hair anywhere on the body?

Electrolysis works on all skin and hair types. It can be applied to most facial and body parts, including: eyebrows, chin, upper & lower lip, jaw line & sides of the face, breast & underarms, abdomen, bikini line, legs and back. Based on a personal and confidential consultation, our electrologist at Skin Studio will design a treatment plan that addresses your specific hair removal needs.

10 Beauty Resolutions to Make This Year

January, 2016

resolutions

Wishing you and yours a Wonderful New  Year from all of us at Skin Studio!

Ring in the new year with a list of resolutions that will help improve your skin.

Set goals that are good for your health and will keep you looking your best.

It’s the time of year when we all start thinking about our new year resolutions.

Here  we’ve compiled a list of  resolutions that we are vowing to follow this year to help us get the healthy, glowing skin of our dreams.


  1. I will clean my makeup brushes.

    Cleaning your brushes will help them last longer and will reduce your chances of breakouts.


  2. I will wear SPF every day.

    Daily use of SPF 15 or higher sunscreen reduces the risk of developing melanoma by 50 percent, according to The Skin Cancer Foundation. Our skin care professional will help you to choose correct SPF for you.


  3. I will find a skincare regimen that works for me.

    A proper skincare regimen starts with finding the right products for your skin type. Do you have dry or dehydrated skin? Oily skin? Combination skin? Introduce new products one at a time so you can see how they affect your skin. Once you’ve got your cleanser, toner and moisturizer.


  4. I will try new colors.

    Do you play it safe with neutrals? Challenge yourself to add some color to your palette, whether it’s a bold lip or a new shade of eye shadow.


  5. I will not pick at my acne.

    Stop the spread of acne-causing bacteria. Cleanse your skin twice a day and spot treat acne as needed, but don’t pick and prod at your breakouts, you’ll make it worse! Consider getting a professional acne treatment at Skin Studio.


  6. I will treat myself to a facial

    . Nothing beats a professional skincare treatment at Skin Studio.


  7. I will find a red lipstick I love

    . Learn how to find the perfect red lip and test drive a few shades to find the one that’s right for your skin tone. At Skin Studio we have few choices for you.


  8. I will throw out expired products.

    Look on the back of your skincare products for an icon of a small container and lid with a number inside. This period after opening symbol tells you the lifetime of a product after it has been opened. For example, if your hand cream says 30M, the product is good to use for 30 months after you first open it. To keep track of how old your products are, write the month and year in permanent marker on all of your tubes. Every six months go through your stash and toss old product.


  9. I will drink LOTS of water

    . It’s no myth, drinking water is good for your skin! Prevent dehydration by drinking plenty of water and lock the moisture into your skin with a moisturizer.


  10. I will remove my makeup every night before bed.

    Sleeping in your makeup can lead to premature aging, so wash your face in the evening to wash the day away. Try a water-soluble cleansing oil to clean the skin of dirt and debris.

Home Care For New Year

January, 2015

Let’s start the year with fresh and healthy skin. It can be very confusing what skin care products to use and when to use them. Our estheticians at Skin Studio can assist you with correct home care regimen for your skin.

 Here are the steps to a healthy skin. 

  • Make sure to use pH balanced cleanser, apply a small amount (about dime size) to a damp skin and massage over face and throat. Rinse with lukewarm water. Removes excessive oil, dirt, make-up, and impurities. Can be used alone or mixed with a facial scrub. Use A.M. and P.M.  Do not use cleanser to remove eye make up. Use Gentle eye makeup remover to effectively remove all traces of eye make up.
  • Balancing toner- after cleansing use a cotton ball to smooth tonic over face, and immediately apply serum and moisturizer (do not let the toner dry!)  Hydrates and balances skin. Use A.M. and P.M. Also can be used throughout the day.
  • A facial serum is a little bottle that delivers mighty results. From skin firming or skin brightening to skin clearing, skin serums transform the skin. Use at night or in the morning depending on the concentration before moisturizer after a toner.
  • Repair skin and lock in hydration with moisturizer-apply right after the toner and serum to the face and throat using upward strokes. Morning moisturizer needs to have (at least) SPF 15 or use a separate sun protection cream.  Depending on moisturizer concentration it can provide extra hydration, nourishment, firming affect, and protects against environmental aggression Use A.M. and P.M.
  • Gently polishe away dead skin cells exfoliation-, leaving a soft, smooth skin with a better absorption of treatments and products. Apply to a cleansed, damp skin or mix with your cleanser and gently massage over face and throat. Depending on skin conditions use at lease once a week.
  • Get more out of your products with facial mask-apply a thin film to a clean face and throat for 10-15 minutes. Depending on a mask it can increase hydration, firm, reduce sensitivity, deep clean, and provide multiple antioxidants. Use once or twice a week.
  • Deeply hydrate eye area with eye cream-gently tap a small amount around the eye area, blending inward from the outer corner. Improves and/or prevents fine lines, hydrates, and reduces puffiness. Can use A.M and P.M.
