Why We Love SkinMedica Products

Genesis • February 16, 2015

Dr. Chandra Prasad visits with SkinMedica scientists Rahul Mehta, Ph. D. and Scott Petersen, Ph. D.I just returned from the SkinMedica VIP Summit and could not be more energized about our skin care line. Years ago, I chose to offer SkinMedica products because the science behind their claims was solid. I stand even more confident in that choice today because of their ongoing commitment to results-oriented products.

I had the pleasure of spending time with the two chief researchers, Rahul Mehta, Ph. D. and Scott Petersen, Ph. D., at SkinMedica. These two super smart people are the brains behind the discoveries. Their insight into the aging face and skin is far ahead of the curve. They will only bring new products to market once they have solid research and results that are published in medical journals reviewed by other doctors. This is what separates SkinMedica from the other skin care offerings that we are bombarded with daily. There are lots of claims and fancy advertising, but no hard science to back it up.

Some of the game-changing products they have brought to the market include: TNS Essential Serum, Lytera, and their retinol products. TNS is the single most important anti-aging serum today, containing an industry leading 94{d855275bb5a53a691922ddbe09fd77e36a4f35d1f88aaf3bcf40ae4b44ffef7b} growth factor concentration! In addition, it is paired with free radical scavenging antioxidants and other skin enhancing formulations all in one easy to use pump. Lytera will visibly reduce brown spots from sun damaged skin in 90 days. Continued use will lead to even better reduction in these unsightly spots. Retinol products are a mainstay of anti-aging and will lead to a reduction in fine wrinkles and increase the tone of the skin. SkinMedica’s retinol has enhanced delivery mechanisms and is much easier to tolerate than current Retin-A products with no sacrifice in results. SkinMedica continues to advance the science of beauty and I am proud to be able to bring these groundbreaking discoveries to you at the JCMG Laser & Vein Center.

Are you tired of looking in the mirror and seeing the signs of aging, sun damage, or just the wear and tear of everyday life? Get ready to turn up the heat with Tixel, the skin resurfacing treatment that’s hotter than your morning coffee and twice as refreshing. This innovative treatment uses cutting-edge technology to rejuvenate your skin and leave you looking and feeling refreshed. So, what exactly is skin resurfacing? Essentially, it’s a process that removes the outer layers of your skin to reveal the healthier, more vibrant skin underneath. (Think of it like peeling a carrot.) This can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, and even acne scars. This is the best part – Tixel is non-invasive and has minimal downtime. Tixel uses heat to create tiny microchannels in the skin, which stimulate the body’s natural healing process and encourage the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Plus, because Tixel uses heat rather than lasers or chemicals, it’s a safer and more comfortable option. This method is less invasive and leads to less tissue damage, resulting in minimal downtime. Of course, it’s important to remember that Tixel is only part of the equation when it comes to healthy, glowing skin. To truly maintain those amazing results, you need to take good care of your skin at home. This includes using high-quality skincare products, avoiding excessive sun exposure, and staying hydrated. Think of Tixel as the hero of your skincare routine, and your at-home regimen as the trusty sidekick along with your Aesthetic Provider’s tips and tricks. Together, they’ll help you achieve your skincare goals.

Cosmetic fillers are a great way to help you turn back time, when used correctly. Do you notice the person staring at you in the mirror has a few more lines than before? Are you seeing an image of your parents or grandparents looking back at you? Time and the aging process is something we can’t stop, but we can help slow it with cosmetic fillers. Cosmetic fillers are a great way to enhance areas on the face or simply put back volume that time took away. They can volumize the cheeks, sharpen the chin and jawlines, volumize the lips, and soften unwanted wrinkles. Done in the right hands, cosmetic fillers will help bring back a younger, more youthful version of you! Injecting filler is an art that requires precision, ongoing training, and an eye for detail. For the best results, it is important that you choose an injector who is highly educated and stays current with the latest techniques. It is important to remember that fillers only replace volume; they don’t stop the movement of the face, which le

The good news is bioidentical hormone replacement can relieve these symptoms and even provide protection against chronic health conditions. Not to be confused with synthetic hormones that come with the risk of blood clots and cancers, bioidentical hormones are naturally made from plant-based materials and have little to no increased risk of cardiovascular disease or cancer, but instead are shown by research studies to protect against these conditions and can be used long term without an increase in risk.

It’s Sunsational month again at Genesis! We are looking forward to and getting geared up for our 16th annual Sunsational Celebration Open House on May 18th. It’s hard to believe how many of these we have put on as a company. Every year we are so grateful to all who celebrate with us. This year also marks, for me, 16 years of being a client of Genesis. As some of you know, Dr. Prasad and Barb are my parents, so I was exposed to great skincare products and sun protection from a young age. As I have grown up, and when I began my career at Genesis eight years ago, I tried even more of the services and products we offer. I can’t say enough how much they have changed my life. Everything I have tried has been fabulous, from vein care and Biote Hormone Replacement to routine facials and Botox. At 31, I feel younger than I used to and feel more confident in my skin than ever before. I have grown up around a lot of my Genesis team, and we have added some newer faces as the years have passed. They are amazing! I feel privileged to work with such a solid and passionate group of people. I think this place is pretty magical and you can feel it when you come through our doors. So, I invite you to hang out with us, meet the team, and experience all the fabulousness Genesis offers this month. Find something that will help you feel better or be more confident. You deserve it!
