I love this time of year when days are cooler, the trees are starting to turn colors and the air has a clean, crisp, invigorating smell. I especially enjoy my early morning coffee on the deck just listening to the sounds of nature and getting my thoughts together for the coming day.
It is during my early morning coffee that I reflect back and enjoy the events of certain days and various activities such as the September 12th “Peel Party.” My peel was a success: after peeling for three to four days, I now enjoy – like fall weather – the clean, healthy glow that my skin gets with a chemical peel. What a natural glow new skin has when old dead skin is removed; makes me feel young again.
With my morning and evening cleansing routine I use Lytera by SkinMedica to help lighten pigment and, I have to tell you, it is working. Using Lytera on my face and neck, darker pigment spots are much less noticeable, fading more and more each month. Lytera is a great product for aging skin.
In the past I have used SkinMedica Retinol, but I must admit I was not a faithful user. However, at the Peel Party I learned how important retinol was for all skin types (especially aging skin). Before, I would clean my skin, apply TNS Essential Serum, Lytera and Dermal Repair; I thought this was enough, but now I know my skin needs retinol to help promote new skin cells and retain firmness. Retinol is now back in my evening routine and next month I will let you know improvements that I see using retinol.
All the products and treatments that I have received through JCMG Laser and Vein Center have given me results far better than I ever expected. The Laser and Vein Center is like a “personal trainer” for my face and skin; they have customized a program for me that works for me, my skin and my budget. I have said before that JCMG Laser and Vein Center is my “best friend”, but I will say it again: they are my “best friend” and always will be.
