Technological Advances in Permanent Hair Removal, Skin Rejuvenation and Cellulite Treatments
Throughout history, men and women have always sought ways to look attractive. Science and technology have, therefore, given due attention to this field, resulting in technological advances in permanent hair removal, skin rejuvenation and cellulite treatments.Permanent Hair RemovalShaving, plucking and waxing used to be the only options for hair removal. Men have been shaving their facial hair through the ages. Women have been plucking their eyebrows and underarms and shaving their legs. Plucking underarms can be difficult, though, and some women took to shaving there instead. Eventually, waxing came into fashion. It became the better choice after women realized that plucking or shaving underarms could result in ingrown hair, chicken skin and darkening. Waxing legs also became the norm when it was established that it resulted in longer periods before re-growth.Waxing could be painful, though, and men who have tried it have declared their admiration for women who regularly undergo leg waxing. Many women are even more daring and go for waxing to remove unwanted hair in the bikini line.Permanent hair removal need not be painful, though. The latest technology for permanent hair removal is called Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL). This laser hair removal treatment, now available in Tampa, is virtually painless. With the advanced Candela GentleLASE system, a coolant is applied to the skin before every laser pulse. The Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL) involve the use of full spectrum light that destroys hair follicles for permanent hair removal while leaving the skin totally free from damage or any other negative side effects. Only existing hair follicles can be destroyed, though. Since hair grows in stages, not all hair follicles can be zapped in just one session. Patients will need to undergo five to nine sessions in order to catch all the subsequent growths. After that, the treated areas will be permanently smooth and hair-free.Skin RejuvenationFace lifts and other forms of plastic surgery used to be the solution to aging skin. Nowadays, technological advances have brought skin rejuvenation therapies without the need for any invasive plastic surgery. As a testament to the safety of Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL) for the skin, the exact same technology is also used for skin rejuvenation.Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL) have been proven to be effective in erasing lines and wrinkles on the face or any other body parts by provoking the production of collagen. This also prevents the formation of new lines and wrinkles. Furthermore, Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL) erase freckles and skin discolorations in the form of brown spots caused by aging, hormonal imbalance and sun damage. A very welcome side effect is a reduction in the size and visibility of pores. Another major use of Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL) is to clear up vascular lesions or spider veins that can occur on the face or legs.In fact, because of its many uses, Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL) can be applied to virtually any body part that needs skin rejuvenation treatment. This includes the face, neck, chest, back, arms and hands.Cellulite TreatmentsFor slimming and the elimination of cellulite, the old paradigm was the use of liposuction. Unfortunately, liposuction was found to have quite a number of serious side effects. Even worse, it was found to be ineffective in eliminating cellulite. Once again, technology comes to the rescue with a non-invasive alternative that not only slims and shapes body contours but firms up the skin and dramatically reduces cellulite, as well. This new technology which uses light, heat, suction and massage in one machine is called VelaShape. The good news is that all these technological advances are within the reach of most of us. Check them out.

What Would you Do to Your Body to Get Rid of Cellulite?
There are more ways then ever to treat cellulite on your body. This unfortunately makes the decision of which cellulite treatment to choose more difficult for you. This article is going to look at a few of the more popular anti cellulite treatments, and help you choose a treatment option that is best for you.Endermologie®This is a newer anti cellulite treatment technique. It involves the use of a small machine with two rollers and slight suction. It performs a type of massage on the skin rolling the top layer of skin and fat as it’s moved over top of the skin. The rolling motion stretches out the connective tissues in the skin leaving it smoother and flatter then before.The FDA has approved the statement that Endermologie® can temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite. This is the only treatment method that the FDA has made any statement about.Treatments are done in multiple sessions and to maintain the results continuos sessions must be done several times a year. The process can hurt a bit, and leave a bit of soreness. Sessions run from $70 – $100.MesotherapyThis treatment came over from France as a skin care treatment used with cellulite, wrinkles and fine lines. It involves small needles and “micro injections”. These micro injections contain vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other natural building blocks that help reduce new fat cells from forming.Mesotherpay is administered in multiple sessions like Endermologie®, how ever there can be a bit more discomfort associated with the treatment. Soreness is the major side effect for a couple of days after each session. Treatment sessions run around the same as Endermologie® and are done by beauty and skin care clinics in most major cities.Anti Cellulite Lotions and CreamsThis is the only topical treatment we’ll look at, but it has been shown to be effective. While both previous treatments produce quicker results they are high cost and can have some pain associated with them. In comparison anti cellulite creams are topically applied and generally contain all natural ingredients with minimal if any side effects.Cellulite creams firm and tone the skin where applied to reduce the appearance of cellulite fat cells pushing up against connective tissues below the skin. It’s this pressing that causes dimples to occur. Some anti cellulite creams contain stimulants such as green tea extract or caffeine to help improve blood flow and circulation to those areas of the body affected by cellulite. This process also improves the functionality of the natural metabolic pathways in that area of the body.Consistent application is required, similar to multiple sessions of other types of treatments. A one month supply of cellulite lotion can cost between $30 and $50 dollars.Most women opt to try anti cellulite creams first, before expensive and sometimes painful alternative treatment methods. How ever the results can be more dramatic from sessions of Endermologie®.

Pre-Wedding Treatments to Schedule: Cellulite Treatments, Permanent Hair Removal Treatments and Skin Rejuvenation
So you’re planning on getting married next year? You just have enough time to start preparing yourself for the most important day of your life. If you want to be a radiantly beautiful bride with a svelte cellulite-free figure and perfectly clear smooth skin that is totally hair-free where you want it to be, you can make that happen. You have options for effective cellulite treatments, permanent hair removal and skin rejuvenation. But you have to start taking care of yourself right now.VelaShape Cellulite TreatmentsDoes your dream wedding gown require a flat abdomen with no love handles? Do your honeymoon plans include a beach or a poolside where you will have to wear your sexiest swimsuit that demands cellulite-free buttocks and thighs? There’s no need to worry.No, I’m not going to recommend that you undergo plastic surgery or liposuction. Plastic surgery is too invasive. Liposuction may be less invasive but it has its drawbacks, too. Patients have reported experiencing pain, a lot of blood loss, loosened skin and long recovery periods. In the end, it has been proven that liposuction does not even solve the problem of cellulite.Fortunately for all of us, there is a more effective non-invasive option for a trimmer cellulite-free figure. VelaShape is a machine that uses bi-polar radiofrequency (RF), infrared light energy, vacuum and mechanical massage to shrink fat cells and fat chambers, resulting in a visible reduction and reshaping of the treated body part. Body parts that can be treated include the abdominal area, buttocks and thighs. Patients have reported reduction from 1 cm. to 7.2 cm in as early as two sessions, a week apart. The body is slimmed down, contoured and toned, resolving cellulite. It is effective, safe and, according to patients, virtually painless. There is also no downtime at all. After treatment the patient can go about normal activities.Permanent Hair Removal and Skin Rejuvenation through Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL)Your figure problems may have been solved by VelaShape but what about unwanted body or facial hair? Wherever you want to get rid of unwanted body hair, permanent hair removal will free you from your problem. This can be achieved through Intense Pulsed Light Treatments or IPL, a laser hair removal treatment that can be done right here in Tampa. Using full spectrum light from flash lamps to destroy hair follicles and prevent regrowth, IPL does not damage the skin nor does it cause any unwanted side effects.Since IPL targets hair during its growth stage, though, five to nine sessions are needed, ten to twelve weeks apart, for complete hair removal. This means you have to allot at least a year for your permanent hair removal treatments before your wedding, and you have to start on it right now. You won’t regret it on your wedding day and your honeymoon.One other reason you’ll love IPL is that it can be used for skin rejuvenation, as well, erasing any skin discoloration, eliminating blemishes, shrinking pores, smoothening wrinkles and lines, and firming skin on the face, neck, chest, back, arms, hands, legs and feet. You may need two to four sessions, four weeks apart. This means you have to allot two to four months to this treatment before your wedding.It would be really convenient if you could find a reliable center that offers all these treatments so that you can get the full package at a good price. Now you’re all set. You’ll definitely be a beautiful bride on your wedding day. You can go on and order that dream wedding gown and that tiny honeymoon bikini now.
