Restore Your Skin’s Natural Glow – Dermal Roller Treatment

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]What Causes Us To Age With Time?

Collagen is the skin’s natural connective tissue…it’s the stuff that holds it all together basically and as we age, our collagen production slows down. This is a natural process and after the age of around 50 we’ve lost about half of our natural ability to make collagen and this of course has a knock-on effect in terms of the way our skin looks.

Older skin lacks the natural “bounce” which younger skin has…it can also appear greyish and lacking in colour…not to mention those wrinkles of course! The skin industry is a huge one with hundreds of treatments and ointments out there which are designed to improve the texture and appearance of our skin but not all of them have much effect!

Dermal Roller Treatment

Dermal rollers or Dermapen are however one treatment which has received positive reports from the many people who have given it a go. Otherwise known as microneedling, it’s a very simple treatment and while it can be a little uncomfortable it is also very effective in brightening the skin considerably and this is in part down to the role which they play in encouraging the production of collagen in the skin.

If you’re not sure what dermal roller treatment is, it’s basically the practice of using a small spiked roller to “prick” the skin of the face all over. The practitioner prepares the face with a special anaesthetic cream and this ensures that some of the sting is taken out of the treatment. Then the roller is gently applied all over the face.

Does It Hurt?

Although the treatment isn’t painful, it can cause a little discomfort; after a treatment your skin may look rather red and a little sore but this is only temporary and soon fades. Because of this side effect make sure that you leave a day or even better, two days to recover before going on any special outing!

The dermal roller is a simple but highly effective treatment in the fight against ageing and after a treatment people report a more youthful glow to their skin and an improvement in texture.

Give Your Skin A Boost! 

If your skin is looking a little lacklustre, dermal roller treatment could be just the thing to give you a fresher appearance! Dermal rollers can be used to treat a myriad of skin problems including acne scarring, uneven pigmentation, fine lines and minor scars. By stimulating the collagen in your skin it helps to fight these signs of ageing or problem skin and most sessions don’t take more than ten minutes. Soon after your treatment the tiny “holes” made by the roller will close up and the improvement process begins!

Many people report seeing an improvement in their skin after only 24 hours…why not give dermal rollers a try and see the change in your skin? Speak to your nearest clinic about making an appointment for a consultation as this is the first step in booking a session of dermal roller skin treatment and you should always see a professional regarding any invasive treatments before considering giving them a try![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Laser Hair Removal For Transgenders

We’ve come a long way as a society in accepting the differences between people and the acceptance of transgenders has been an enormous battle for those men who like to cross dress as part of their lifestyle. No longer seen as a dodgy or unpalatable practice, transvestism is now an almost “normal” thing and rather than staring open-mouthed at open transgenders, society in general understands where it has its beginning and that it’s not a perversion or an oddity…just a difference.

Acne Treatments and Problem Skin…Celebs Suffer Just Like We Do!

Acne Doesn’t Discriminate

Acne has no rules…it doesn’t just pick on ordinary people; you only need to glance through the gossip columns for pictures of even the biggest Hollywood stars and their troublesome skin. Contrary to popular belief it doesn’t cause problems just for the very young but can strike at any age and just as severely as it can do in youth.

Kim and Khloe Kardashian and laser hair removal

Whilst many celebrities are more than a little tight lipped about their beauty treatments and interventions, some are very open about them. The Kardashian sisters have all been very vocal about their love of laser hair removal.

In particular Kim and Khloe; Khloe actually had the procedure done for the first time on the girl’s reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians. (They are also big fans of Coolsculpting along with other celebrities)

With their Armenian heritage and their thick, dark hair the Kardashians had long been disillusioned with less long lasting hair removal techniques such as waxing and shaving and had wanted to try something which would offer a more long term solution to the problem of unwanted hair.

Celebrity facial hair treatment – ready for that close-up

Kim was the first of the sisters to come out as a fan and has reportedly had the procedure done on her hair line to eradicate the fine “baby hair” which was a few years ago very apparent on her forehead.

It is understandable with cameras following them 24-7 and with millions of followers on Instagram you would want to look your best.

She was so happy with her laser results encouraged the rest of her family to give laser hair removal a try and Khloe shared her experience with the world by allowing the cameras to film whilst she had laser on her body…including her toes!

Other Celebs Reported To Have Gone Under The Laser too!!

Kris Jenner, the girl’s Mother, has also been under the laser and the entire family regularly promote laser hair removal. They’re not the only ones either!

Other celebs, listed above have reportedly had laser treatment include Victoria Beckham on the advice of her friend Eva Longoria and Beyonce…both dark haired it’s not hard to see why these glamorous women would choose to opt for a permanent solution to their hair issues.

Bollywood stars and laser hair removal

It’s not only Hollywood celebrities that have undergone laser hair removal. Bollywood stars have been rumoured to have undergone laser hair removal. They include Deepika Padukone who had full body the laser hair removal and Shraddha Kapoor who as an actress would need to feel comfortable in a range of costumes and clothing.

Ingrown Hairs Can Be A Thing Of The Past

Women and especially women in the media have long felt pressure to appear “perfect” and whilst this is one reason for people to undergo permanent hair removal, another is comfort.

If you’re constantly shaving or waxing certain areas then you will undoubtedly know the pain of ingrown hairs, sore skin and shaving rashes…certain areas such as the armpits are certainly easier to keep fresh when there is a lack of hair there…so it makes sense to look at permanent removal in these spots.

Facial Hair Is A Thing Of The Past!

Equally distressing is the appearance of hair on the upper lip…women with moustaches aren’t universally admired and those who suffer from too much hair in this area will probably have tried all kinds of solutions including depilatory cream.

Whether the Kardashians have undergone this treatment is unknown but one thing’s for sure and that’s that none of the fashionable sisters ever appear with a trace of facial hair.

Celebrity influence

Celebrities often lead the way in terms of fashion and beauty treatments. Universally admired for their style and looks, celebs like the Kardashian sisters influence the masses with their decisions regarding their bodies and what treatments they choose.

With laser hair removal being such an obvious success for them, many people are choosing to follow in their footsteps and seek out laser hair removal.

Men’s Laser Hair Removal and the Rise Male Grooming!

The Rise Of Male Grooming

Once upon a time it wasn’t considered “manly” for the males of our species to indulge in anything so self conscious as male hair removal…apart from beard maintenance of course!

Just a few years ago advertising for men’s hair removal products consisted solely of the most rugged of chaps engaged in some jaw jutting, razor-sharp shaving shenanigans.

Growth in male laser hair removal

Men have finally discovered the secret about laser hair removal that women have known for years.

Laser works!

A well groomed man also has the freedom to indulge in facials and to get in touch with his feminine side has to be a good thing.

Why shouldn’t men have the pleasure of great products and great treatments when at the end of the day they not only ensure better skin health but more comfortable hair removal and a longer-lasting smoothness?

Male grooming in our London clinics

Men’s laser hair removal is just one of the areas which have seen an increase in not only sales but also interest and acceptance with more and more men daily making enquiries about laser hair removal and other treatments listed below.

At Premier Laser we offer a range of treatments to get you looking your best. They include:

Popular areas for laser grooming

So where exactly are men having their hair lasered…and I don’t mean geographically! The answer to that is just about anywhere there’s hair!

Men’s facial laser hair removal is growing in popularity…especially amongst men who suffer from pseudo folliculitis aka razor bumps! This painful condition is common among men who have curly hair and it’s basically multiple ingrown hairs which can become inflamed and painful and the condition is exacerbated by shaving.

As many professional men already know, a clean shave on a daily basis is a given…no turning up to the office with a day’s growth!

Chest, backs and necks have always been popular areas for men along with smaller areas like hands, nose and ears.

Laser hair removal for chest hair and  back hair leaves the area smooth and will end DIY shaving jobs that can be tricky in hard to reach areas like the back. This look is a particular favourite among the younger generation and it’s not as difficult to achieve baby-soft skin as you might think!

Mens laser hair removal has now headed south and more men are having their pubic area pruned and sculpted. The rise in brazilian or manzillian and bikni has also become more popular recently along with the perianal area.

No More Shaving…

This is one of the main reasons why many men seek laser hair removal and it’s an extremely popular solution too. The hair is permanently inhibited by the destruction of the hair follicles beneath the skin so men can enjoy the sensation of soft, smooth skin!

Repeated procedures are usually needed as the treatment is done in sections and the hairs must be “caught” at their growing stage but once it’s gone it’s gone and many men report feeling cleaner, more attractive and happier after their hair removal.

So if you’re bored of your beard or feeling churlish about your chest hair or perturbed by your pubic hair!,  then it might be time to look into the permanent removal of the offending pelt once and for all!

Evolve From The Razor To The Laser

Moving from the discomfort of sore, over-shaved skin to the smooth comfort of a hair-free zone is a great thing and if the only thing holding you back is fear of the unknown then it’s time to get with the picture and get lasered!

We all know the pain of preparing to bare all…or nearly all on our summer hols’ and ensuring that you’re bikini-ready is an important part of the preparation for your summer plans! It’s also half of the fun…after all why limit your preparations to swimsuit shopping when you need to know that you’ll be able to wear it with confidence!

As women make more and more effort with their appearance, it has become the norm for many women to spend even more money getting ready for their summer break than they do on the actual holiday!

If you’re on a budget there’s one area where you shouldn’t skimp and that’s your skin…you need to feel comfortable in it after all! Spray tans, exfoliating treatments and facials are all very well but if there’s a suspicious looking shadow on your upper lip it might be time to consider laser hair removal.

Think Of The Convenience of laser hair removal !!

Packing multiple hair removal essentials is just a bind at a time when you want to be free…and your holiday is a time when you should be free to indulge in the minimal of grooming after all!

Some people avoid laser hair removal due to a fear of pain but the truth is that for many people the pain is only slight…likened to a snapping elastic band hitting the area of skin currently being treated. If that’s all there is to worry about then perhaps it’s time to join the band of happy hair-free holidaymakers currently packing their best swimwear!

Stretch marks are one of those things; they’re not only a side effect of having children either! Many people suffer from the disfiguring, silvery marks on their bodies.

Laser Hair Removal…A Simple Solution

Unwanted Excess Hair

Hair is a tricky issue for many people; sometimes cropping up in places where it’s just not welcome! The problem areas for many of us include the chin, upper lip, cheeks, legs, arms and also the fingers and toes.

Some of this errant hair is natural and since some of us are hairier than others, it’s just one of those things which has to be dealt with. For a small proportion of people, excess hair growth can be a symptom of underlying health issues and this is particularly true for women.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is one of the more common reasons that some women suffer unwanted hair growth and without help to diminish the growth, this excess hair can be embarrassing and upsetting. Similarly, dark haired women can find that they have more than their fair share of hair in areas they’d prefer smooth…this is just down to the pot luck of genetics and there’s no real way to deal with the problem on a permanent basis other than laser hair removal.

Laser Hair Removal 

Laser hair removal is certainly one of the most effective treatments for excess hair-growth and certainly beats shaving, waxing or plucking, not only as far as longevity is concerned but also in terms of comfort!

Waxing and plucking are very painful for many people…especially those with sensitive skin and shaving is hardly kind on the delicate areas which most women are concerned with.

 

The decision to try laser hair removal often comes after the exhaustion of all other options…the endless round of depilatory creams and tweezers finally becomes so wearing that a more permanent and effective solution is the only way to go.

Laser hair removal isn’t an instant fix…it usually takes two or three sessions to be completely effective and this is due to the fact that hairs grow at different rates and the period of time in which an individual follicle may be destroyed is limited to that when the hair is in it’s phase of active growth.

That said, it is certainty possible to see some results even after the first session and most people are so pleased to watch an improvement in their unwanted hair situation that they’re only happy to return for their subsequent sessions!

Is It Painful?

The process is a little painful for some people whilst others say that it only causes mild discomfort. Usually the sensation is likened to an elastic band being snapped against the skin…so it could hardly be called an agonising process but rather mildly annoying. The discomfort however is more than worth it for many people when they contemplate the relief of finally being rid of their unwanted hair.

Speak To A Professional

The first thing to do when considering laser hair removal is to speak to the professionals; booking a consultation can help to give you time to settle any concerns and to have your questions answered by someone in the know…laser hair removal is a safe, effective and usually permanent way to reduce hair from the places it’s not welcome!
