Vol. 19 Reversing skin damage at the end of summer
The summer in Sydney, which gets hotter and hotter every year I feel, gradually becomes more autumnal as Easter approaches. I've been in my current job for 17 years now, and I've started to see patterns in skin problems throughout the year. I didn't think much about it for the first few years, but at one point I realized that "this is always the time of year when customers get frustrated about this skin problem," and I started to take that into account in my treatments and treatment plans.
Now, around this time of year, April and May, summer is coming to an end, so it seems that more and more people are thinking about getting spot treatments around this time. I think this is the most common time of the year. There are many people who were concerned about the increasing number of spots during the summer, but hesitated because "the sun is still strong." Also, collagen, which is vulnerable to ultraviolet rays, is damaged during the summer, and not only spots, but also fine wrinkles increase and the skin becomes less firm. So, it's been almost 10 years since I started the popular spot treatment at this time of year as an April/May special. Until a few years ago, my biggest complex was spots, but as I approach 50, I'm also concerned about wrinkles and sagging. That's why I'm not just focusing on removing spots, but also on treatments to revitalize collagen and home maintenance.
Treatment for spots is not something that you can do once and then never have to do again. Spots appear where there were none, so it's natural to think that they will appear again even if you remove them. The key is preventing new spots from appearing as much as possible after removing the spots. This is controlling melanocytes, which have the habit of producing melanin. For me, treatment to remove spots is just the starting point, and the real goal is to create skin that is less susceptible to skin trouble. To that end, I advise my customers who undergo treatment to learn about the mechanisms behind skin and skin trouble, and to keep their skin beautiful while enjoying life.
The first treatment is like a major "cleaning". That's why it takes time and money. After that, if you clean a little bit every day, you won't need to do another major cleaning soon.
In most cases, people over the age of 30 have a mixture of various types of spots. Each type of spot has its own appropriate treatment. In terms of cleaning, should you wipe or sweep, or are there strong spots that can only be removed with bleach or water pressure? Also, depending on the environment of the place where you clean, the progress after cleaning will be different even for the same garbage. Places that are left exposed to the wind and do nothing will get dirty again soon. Since the environment of spots is different for each person, such as skin type, lifestyle, whether you are female or male (difference in hormones), chronic illnesses, allergies, etc., the key to maintaining beautiful skin is to find and continue the maintenance that suits each person.
My goal in beauty treatment is not to remove what is there now and be done with it, but to keep the skin beautiful even after removing it. Some spots have bad personalities. Even if you remove them, the melanin will return soon. The human mind and body are programmed to always maintain the same state. (Homeostasis) Melanocytes, which used to naturally produce melanin, do not cease their activity just because the melanin they have already produced has been removed. Now, we will educate the melanocytes, which can be called the factory that produces spots, and guide them to a state where they do not need to produce excessive melanin.
As a side note, I recently learned something interesting. There is homeostasis in the mind as well, so even if you start something new, you will not be able to continue. Apparently homeostasis is also at work when people give up after three days. This means that the key is for me to support not only the melanocytes, but also the customers who maintain them so that they can make a new routine a habit. In April and May, we will help you take the first step in giving them that push with this special offer. It is a set of the first treatment, skin care that is effective against spots and wrinkles, and sunscreen.
