Do you know there is a difference between moisturizing your skin and hydrating your skin? Discover the difference between moisturizing your skin and hydrating it with the New HA5 from SkinMedica. Moisturization is your skin feeling hydrated while hydration increases the water level of the skin, which is more beneficial when you want to combat the signs of aging.  A new SkinMedica product hit the market recently and not only is it incredible, but it truly hydrates your skin. The first of its kind with FIVE different types of hyraluronic acid, HA5 has time-release hyraluronic acid and it instantly smooths your skin and keeps it looking more supple over time. Within minutes of application, your skin will look and feel smoother.  The weightless, silky texture cools, soothes, and hydrates your skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. What’s so special about HA? Hyraluronic acid (HA) is a natural, water-loving substance found in the skin.  It holds in moisture, keeping skin healthy, resilient and supple. As you get older, your natural HA levels decrease and your skin loses its ability to retain moisture.  By the time you are 40-50, you have lost 50% of the HA that you had at 20 – this causes your skin to become rougher and dryer, which leads to lines and wrinkles that can make you look older than you feel. How is it different than other products? It delivers both immediate and long term skin benefits, unlike others hyaluronic acid serums that only temporarily moisturize the surface.  HA5 has 5 different forms of HA that work synergistically to provide instant smoothing results and continuous hydration throughout the day.

Belladerm’s LightSheer™ Laser Hair Removal is the Gold Standard laser system for providing permanent hair reduction. Laser hair removal intrigues many but remains a bit of a mystery so we want to answer some common questions people ask:
Q: What does treatment feel like?
A: LightSheer’s actively cooled handpiece makes treatments more comfortable than other lasers on the moment today. This is an important difference especially for a woman’s sensitive skin. Local anesthesia or pain medication is not required, but some patients prefer a topical anesthetic.
Q: Is this treatment safe?
A: Laser hair removal has become a safe and reliable hair removal treatment. The LightSheer Diode Laser is one of the few lasers approved by the FDA for permanent hair reduction on all skin types.
Q: How does it work?
A: As you may already know, a laser produces a beam of highly concentrated light.  Light emitted by the LightSheer Diode Laser is absorbed only by the pigment located within the hair follicles.  The laser pulses for a fraction of a second, just long enough to vaporize the pigment, disabling several follicles at a time.  This either eliminates or significantly reduces the hair’s ability to grow back.
Q: How many treatments do I need?
A: The number of treatments required for optimal, long-term benefits depends on the area you wish to have treated, your hair’s density and growth cycle. Age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication and metabolism all play a part in the way your hair responds to the treatment.
Q: Are there side effects?
A: Short-term side effects may include slight reddening of the skin or local swelling which typically lasts less than an hour. In very rare instances, there may be some blistering.
Q: How does this compare with other hair removal methods?
A: Shaving, waxing, plucking, or depilatory creams are all temporary methods, which must be repeated on a regular basis to keep unwanted hair away.  Hair removal with LightSheer advanced laser technology offers longer lasting results.
