Skin Resurfacing: Lift Away Time

My Fraternal Grandmother was an antique collector. She had rooms full of beautiful old furniture all of which had a lovely hand rubbed glow. I remember her lovingly sanding out imperfections and applying her own blend of magical solvents and finishes to reverse the toll the years had taken on each of her treasured pieces. She called the process giving the furniture a "facelift." Actually she wasn't "lifting" the furniture, but she was lifting away the years of wear and tear.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could do the same for our dull, old looking skin? The great news is, we can! We can peel or even sand away the layers of ageing, resurfacing our skin just as Granny did with her beloved antique furniture, erasing years without a surgical facelift.

Starting with a Peel which can be mild to strong, depending on the severity of the problem, years of wear and tear can literally be lifted away. New young skin replaces old dead skin giving the refreshed appearance of youth.

For more serious skin problems, Dermabrasion can be used to actually sand away deeper imperfections caused by age, acne, smoking, bone loss, and a variety of other factors.

You may wonder why I have not recommended any of the currently trendy laser resurfacing techniques. Lasers are lights that burn, sometimes severely. Because of this, I would choose the time tested, gentler, less expensive, faster healing and often more effective Peels and Dermabrasion.

If we take a lesson from Granny and her antiques, perhaps most of us don't really need an actual facelift to achieve a brighter, smoother, more youthful appearance. All many of us need is a little Skin Resurfacing for our old, dull skin to virtually lift away time.
