It can also enhance facial features, camouflage scars and correct loss of skin pigmentation.</p>
<p><strong>What is permanent makeup?</strong><br />
Permanent makeup is also known as permanent cosmetics. The service utilizes micropigmentation to implant the color pigment into the upper layers of the epidermis. The purpose of permanent makeup is to utilize specialized tattooing inks and designs to mimic makeup application. Colors are assigned to blend with your natural skin tone to match the encompassing skin. At CosMedic Skincare we treat patients from many different backgrounds and circumstances that are seeking a permanent solution to their makeup needs.</p>
<p><strong>What areas can receive permanent makeup?</strong><br />
Eyeliner: Amplifies the eye’s beauty by providing definition and thickening the appearance of the lashes.<br />
Eyebrow: Accentuates the shape of the eyes and will help distinguish the eye as the focal point of the face.<br />
Lips &#038; Lip Liner: Augments shape and provides definition to the lips. No need to reapply lipstick, no need to be concerned with lipstick bleeding into fine lines around the mouth, and no more concerns about lipstick stains on drinking glasses.</p>
<p><strong>How long does the treatment take?</strong><br />
The time for treatment will vary considerably based on the area as well as the number of areas treated. Typical treatment time for one area is approximately 45 – 90 minutes. In an effort to promote patient comfort during treatment, topical numbing will be applied ahead of time. Permanent makeup procedures are exclusively performed by Dr. Reinertson.</p>
<p><strong>What results can I expect?</strong><br />
You can choose the look and style of your permanent makeup! Colors will appear darker immediately after treatment but will soften and lighten a few days to a week following treatment. Similar to tattoos, the color will fade in time and additional service will be required to brighten the pigment. Sun exposure will play a major role in decreasing the longevity of your permanent makeup. It is important to use a physical sunblock, year round, to help maintain the results of your treatment and subsequently protect your skin from the negative effects of sun damage.</p>

</br><br />
Recently, celeb Kim Kardashian underwent another cosmetic procedure called the Vampire Facelift. As we start to lose collagen, our skin begins to look aged. This deterioration of collagen causes the face to begin to lose volume and sag. As time progresses, this collapse of collagen and muscles in the face can also make a person’s cheeks look flat and the eyes appear hollow. The skin may also begin to lose its youthful rosy color and instead take on a dull, gray tint. The cumulative effects of facial aging can cause an individual to look tired and worn out, even when they feel completely rested and energized.</p>
<p>The Vampire Facelift is one of many ways you can restore youth and beauty to your skin! To learn more about what you can do to improve the look of aging skin, visit us at <a href="http://www.dermmedispa.com/services-2/#c" target="_blank">http://www.dermmedispa.com/services-2/#c</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you have a hard time fitting in cardiovascular activity as well as strength training? Both are equally important, especially as we age, to keep our heart healthy and our bones strong.<br />
In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control, “strength training can be very powerful in reducing the signs and symptoms of numerous diseases and chronic conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, back pain and depression.”<br />
My suggestion is to multi-task while on the treadmill and interval train or lift weights while walking. This can be done with short bursts of more intense aerobic activity. You should also not worry about this taking away from the quality of your aerobic activity.<br />
As indicated by Dr. Edward R. Laskowski, on MayoClinc.com, “Longer, less frequent sessions of aerobic exercise have no clear advantage over shorter, more frequent sessions of activity. Any type of aerobic activity contributes to cardiovascular fitness.”<br />
Let’s first start with the walking motion on a treadmill. One of the benefits of walking on a treadmill instead of on the pavement is that the treadmill will cause less impact. This is especially important if you have back or knee issues.</p>

Learn more about Juvederm, Restylane and Radiesse. Several treatments have joined Botox in receiving FDA approval as safe and effective for reducing or eliminating lines and wrinkles. Juvederm, Restylane and Radiesse are among the widely used approved products. Many of our patients ask about the differences&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;The primary difference between injections of Botox and these other products is the nature of the substances. Botox is a toxin that works by relaxing the facial muscles, whose contractions cause lines and furrows between the eyes. Once relaxed , the muscles no longer contract as strongly, and the overlying furrows disappear. In contrast, Juvederm is a dermal filler, a hyaluronic acid-based gel that actually fills in wrinkles by plumping, smoothing and elevating the creases in the skin. This temporarily compensates for reduced collagen levels and decreased skin elasticity associated with aging skin. Dermal fillers can also be used to fill in acne scars, enhance cheek bones by making them fuller and more defined, and filling hollows under the eyes that contribute to dark circles. And because hyaluronic acid, the active ingredient in Juvederm, occurs naturally in the body, there is almost no chance of an allergic reaction.</p>
<p>Another difference is that Juvederm treatments tend to last longer than Botox treatments. Juvederm treatments typically are effective for six to nine months, and as long as twelve months, compared for the three to four months that Botox typically last for first time patients. However, Juvederm is usually more expensive than Botox.&#8221;</p>
<p>But the real question is which is the best treatment for you? The team at Dermatology Depot can assist you in this decision! That said, as a rule of thumb, if creases and lines only appear when squinting, Botox is likely the best solution. If creases and lines are visible when the facial muscles are relaxed, and are not made worse by squinting, dermal fillers are recommended.  Often, the best results are achieved using Botox and Juvederm together! Give us a <a href="http://www.dermmedispa.com/contact-us/" title="Contact Us" target="_blank">call today</a> or claim you <a href="http://www.dermmedispa.com/free-consultation/" title="Free Consultation" target="_blank">FREE consultation</a> to learn more!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The maker of Banana Boat sunscreen is recalling some half-million bottles of spray-on lotion after reports that a handful of people have caught on fire after applying the product and coming in contact with an open flame.<br />
Energizer Holdings said Friday that it is pulling 23 varieties of UltraMist sunscreen off store shelves due to the risk of the lotion igniting when exposed to fire.<br />
The recall includes aerosol products like UltraMist Sport, UltraMist Ultra Defense and UltraMist Kids.<br />
A company spokesman said there have been five reports of people suffering burns after using the sunscreen in the last year. Four burn cases were reported in the U.S. and one in Canada.<br />
More than 20 million units have been sold since UltraMist launched in 2010, the spokesman said.<br />
The problem appears to be caused by UltraMist&#8217;s spray valve, which is over applying the product, Energizer said in a statement. As a result the lotion is taking longer to dry, which raises the flammability risk.<br />
&#8220;If a consumer comes into contact with a flame or spark prior to complete drying of the product on the skin, there is a potential for the product to ignite,&#8221; the company said.<br />
UltraMist&#8217;s label warns users: &#8220;Keep away from sources of ignition &#8212; no smoking.&#8221;<br />
But dermatologists say most people don&#8217;t read such labels.<br />
&#8220;So many people put this on outside, while they&#8217;re on their way to activities, so I just don&#8217;t think people are aware of that,&#8221; said Dr. Michele Green, a dermatologist at New York&#8217;s Lenox Hill Hospital.<br />
Green said aerosol sunscreens have become popular in recent years because they&#8217;re faster and easier to apply than traditional creams.<br />
Doctors and burn experts said Friday the problem appears to be extremely rare.</p>
