• EXFOLIATING HYDROXY ACIDS

Hydroxy acids are one of the best of the skin renewal approaches. They are naturally occurring, non-toxic substances found in the human body, fruits, wine, milk and sugarcane, to name a few sources. Scientifically, these chemicals are known as alpha keto carboxylic acids or beta keto/carboxylic acids. They are more commonly known as alpha hydroxy acids, or AHAs and beta hydroxy acids, or BHAs. Hydroxy acids remove older skin and this helps the flow of new keratinocytes to the surface.

Part of their effect is breaking the "glue" that holds dead cells to the surface of your skin. Hydroxy acids reduce the thickness of the hyperkeratotic stratum corneum by reducing corneocyte cohesion in lower levels of the stratum corneum. This induces epidermolysis, which triggers an increase in cell renewal. This helps the dead cells to slough off (desquamation), speeds skin turnover, and brings to the surface a layer of smoother, softer skin.

• SKIN REMODELING COPPER-PEPTIDES

Copper peptides were first used clinically for wound healing and to heal skin following laser resurfacing and chemical peels. Their actions help to improve the skin's appearance and return skin to a younger-looking, healthier state.

• BASIC SKIN CARE

The essentials of facial skin care are:

1. A skin creams such as Protect & Restore help free the skin from the visible accumulation of damage.

2. For heightened results, also use an LacSal Cream, a 10% hydroxy acid cream.

3. A retinoic acid cream such as generic retinoic acid, Tretinoin, Retin-A, or Renova if you have excess skin oil production and acne. Reduce retinoic acid use to fewer times per week if you become too irritated. Retinoic acid is a very good product, but many dermatologists sell the product and tend to over prescribe retinoic acid and under estimate irritation. Never use cortisone or corticosteroids to reduce retinoic acid irritation. Many users of Protect & Restore have told us that it helped reduce the irritation produced by retinoic acid.

4. A very gentle facial cleanser. Be careful here because many "gentle" cleansers have very alkaline pHs of 9.5 to 10.0. The pH should be near neutrality and there should be no foaming or lathering agents in the cleanser. These foaming chemicals only damage skin and do not help with skin cleansing. Check out our Dr. Pickart Facial Cleanser in this website.

5. For sun protection, use products with reflective sun blockers such as pure titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. Do not use micronized or siliconized titanium dioxide or zinc oxide because they penetrate deeply into the skin whereas, the pure forms remain on the skin surface.

• NAIL REJUVENATION

Since your fingernails are a living tissue, injuries and stresses can manifest itself by weak and thin nails which may lead to premature breaking and tearing. Since its introduction, many have reported Tin Peptide Nail Renewal effectively strengthens and thickens nails. .

Help your fingers feel smooth and your nails grow stronger and faster with this new nail renewal cream! Once or twice daily apply a light amount on your nail bed and cuticle. For fragile nails, apply Tin Peptide Nail Renewal to the nail and cuticle. For fingernails and toenails. Supplements of MSM (2-4 grams daily, from a health food/supplements store) or flaxseed oil (4 grams daily) may also help.

• IMPROVE THE APPEARANCE OF EYEBROWS/EYELASHES

Eyelash loss and eyebrow loss are often due to long-term use of cosmetics. Folligen Cream works well for promoting longer thicker eyelashes.

Keep in mind:
1. The use of many color cosmetics and makeup, with their high concentrations of dyes and metal salts, can produce extensive skin damage and can affect an increase in eyelashes falling out or sparse eyebrows.

2. Eye cosmetics are very irritating, so always use a minimum of eye shadow, eye liner and mascara.

3. Many cleansers used to remove makeup cause further irritation by stripping away protective lipids from the skin. It is best to use a mild cleanser such as Dr. Pickart Facial Cleanser, specifically formulated for sensitive skin and sensitive skin areas.

• CHEMICAL HAIR RELAXERS: FOLLIGEN FOR AFRICAN AMERICAN HAIR

Hair breakage, hair thinning, lack of hair growth, scalp irritation, scalp damage from relaxer burns, hair loss. These are just some of the complaints from many who experience problems due to the misuse of chemical hair straighteners or relaxers. Without the correct instruction, this powerful process which transforms the very chemical makeup of the hair strand, can lead to severe damage.

Before beginning any hair treatment, especially one that introduces chemicals to your hair, you owe it to yourself to be well informed. Armed with a better understanding of this process, you will be able to make good decisions with regard to hair and scalp care.

If you have naturally tightly curled hair you have the option of styling it using products specifically designed for your hair type as it is, or the option to straighten the hair which opens up further hair styles to be available to you. However, chemically straightening the hair should be carefully thought out and thoroughly studied. We have compiled essential information on chemical hair relaxers and urge you to read the following carefully and, if not for yourself, share it with a friend.
