Kelowna Laser Skin Tighening and Re Surfacing

Laser resurfacing and a facelift are two very different procedures. Laser resurfacing uses light energy to heat the top layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production. This can reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture, tone, and pigmentation. On the other hand, a facelift is a surgical procedure that involves tightening the underlying muscles of the face to lift sagging skin. It can also remove excess fat and tissue from the face for smoother contours. Laser resurfacing can improve the results of a facelift by addressing fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes or mouth that are not corrected by surgery alone. However, neither laser resurfacing nor a facelift will stop further aging or prevent new wrinkles from forming.

Kelowna Laser skin tightening  is often preferable to surgery because it can reduce the signs of aging, like fine lines and wrinkles, without requiring invasive surgical treatments. Laser resurfacing is generally less painful and requires much less downtime than surgery, with most people being able to return to their normal activities within a few days. It’s also less expensive in most cases, making it more accessible for many people. Moreover, laser rejuvenation produces fewer noticeable scars than surgery and helps minimize the risk of infection or other complications. Finally, laser treatment can also be used with surgical procedures such as facelifts or blepharoplasty to achieve even better results by addressing fine lines or wrinkles that the original operation may not have treated alone.

Surgery

The main disadvantage of surgery for skin tightening on the face is that it is an invasive procedure. There is an increased risk of infection, scarring, and other side effects. Surgery also requires a longer recovery time than laser resurfacing, potentially stretching up to several weeks before a patient can return to normal activities. Surgery also carries a higher cost than laser treatments, making it less accessible to most people. Additionally, surgical procedures can only address the more extreme signs of aging, such as sagging skin; they cannot restore lost volume or reduce wrinkles and fine lines like laser resurfacing can. Finally, while surgery is effective in lifting and contouring the face, it will not stop further aging or prevent new wrinkles from forming in the future.

Women and Men Facelifts

The popularity of laser skin tightening is rising among both men and women as a way to reduce the signs of aging, such as wrinkles and sagging skin. On average, people start considering laser skin tightening when they reach their mid-30s or early 40s, when the first signs of aging may appear. Laser treatments can be used on any age group since it does not involve invasive surgery. Laser skin tightening can help reduce wrinkles and fine lines, improve skin texture and tone, restore volume loss caused by aging, lift and contour the face, and give patients a more youthful appearance.

In addition to age being a factor in deciding whether or not to receive laser skin treatments, lifestyle choices are also essential factors to consider. People who spend much time in direct sunlight or smoke may require more frequent treatments due to accelerated aging caused by these activities. Additionally, people with certain medical conditions, such as diabetes, may require more frequent treatments since their body’s natural healing process is compromised. Ultimately, based on your lifestyle choices and needs, only a board-certified dermatologist can determine if laser skin tightening is proper for you.…

Tips To Help You Choose A Kelowna Hair Salon Or Stylist

| Uncategorized

Looking for a great hair stylist in Kelowna BC?

You’re going to the salon.  You want hair that says you can take on anything. But after your appointment, you come home with a style that says to forget taking on anything. Just go take a nap. Ever had that happen? I have.

If this kind of experience sounds too familiar, then it might be time to find a new Kelowna hair salon.

It isn’t easy. How can you know, until you sit in the chair, whether you’re in the right place?

First, let’s be honest—you can never be 100% positive about whether a relationship—even with someone who does your hair—will work out. But with the following tips, you have a good chance of finding a hair salon you can count on.

5 TIPS FOR FINDING A KELOWNA HAIR SALON

1.LOOK THEM UP ONLINE

What do they have to say for themselves? Do they have pictures?

 Before and after pictures can tell a lot

  • What do they focus on
  • Trending styles
  • Did colors and cuts flatter
  • Was everything well done

2.GET RECOMMENDATIONS

Granted, most of us have been staying pretty close to home for a while. So make social media help out. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter—wherever you go online to keep in touch, ask who people like to go to for hair care in your area.

3.DO SOME RESEARCH: HAVE THEY DONE YOUR TYPE OF HAIR BEFORE?

If a 55-year old walks into a salon that is all about styling Zoomers, you might get what you want…and….you might not.

4.ASK IF THEY WILL DO A FREE CONSULTATION

If they won’t, that’s a red flag.

If the salon agrees to a free consultation, here are some things you might like to check out:

a.Which stylist will be working on my hair?  Just because a salon is good doesn’t mean the stylist is. So find out who you would be trusting your hair to.

b.Does the stylist have training?  Often, this is left out of the conversation, but it can be important. Levels of certification: Level 2: Takes two years to achieve.  Minimum standard for a person to be able to cut or color hair without supervision. Level 3: Takes three years to complete. Senior Stylist Level 4: This means they learned how to run a business. Level 3 and Level 4 are about equal as far as competency as a stylist.

c.Ask about Products, Trends, Practices

If your hair is curly but limp, can they tell you what products would work for you?

Do they know what styles are “in” for the moment, and which looks will be around for a while?

Do they offer a patch test when they color your hair?

Can they offer advice on what would look good on you, and why?

d.Ask for a blow dry test.

It’s best to have the consultation on a day other than the day of your hair appointment, so it doesn’t seem so long.

5. Make sure the stylist listens

Talk to them. Observe. Are they paying attention? Your hair says a lot about you. So, when you go to the hair salon, make sure you get what you want.
