It is important to understand that prevention is better than the cure!   So your skin-care regime to improve and maintain your skin's youthful appearance should include:

Protect your skin from the sun - Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light speeds up the natural aging process of your skin, causing wrinkles and rough, blotchy skin. In fact, excessive sun exposure is the No. 1 reason for aging signs in the skin, including uneven pigmentation. Protect your skin — and prevent future wrinkles — by limiting the time you spend in the sun and always wearing protective clothing and hat when outdoors. Solariums also use UV light so are just as harmful to your skin as sun exposure. Today’s spray tan solutions from Invigor8 will give you the same effect as spending hours under the sun, but much safer.

Use a sunblock not just as sunscreen - When selecting skin-care products, choose those with a built-in sun protection factor (SPF) of 15+ or more are recommended. If you must use a cream to protect your skin from UV light  be sure to select products that blocks both UVA and UVB rays.  Danne Transdermal Sun Block comes in a spray container and is convenient and effective sun protection to keep in your bag or your car.

Use moisturisers daily - Dry skin turns plump skin cells into shriveled ones, creating fine lines and wrinkles long before you are due. Though moisturisers alone cannot prevent wrinkles, they can temporarily mask tiny lines and creases and make the skin comfortable.

Don't smoke - Smoking causes narrowing of the blood vessels in the outermost layers of your skin. It also damages collagen and elastin — fibers that give your skin its strength and elasticity. As a result of smoking, the skin begins to sag and wrinkle prematurely.

Exfoliate regularly - Daily use of sunblock, moisturiser and make-up can easily clog the skin.  Twice daily cleaning and regular exfoliation using home care products will keep your skin topically cleaned. However, topical (surface) cleaning does not always get the dirt and impurities deep down in the pores and follicles. Dirty, blocked skin is characterised by blackheads, congestion and blemishes.  Regular advanced skin exfoliation such as enzyme treatment, microdermabrasion and chemical peels are necessary to maintain clean, healthy, smooth and blemish-free skin.  Speak to an Invigor8 Paramedical Skin Technician for skin consultation and analysis to find out what is the most appropirate treatment for your skin type and condition.

Not all anti-wrinkle creams are the same!

Anti-wrinkle creams and non-surgical treatments lessen the appearance of your wrinkles without the risk and expense associated with cosmetic surgery.  Most anti-wrinkle creams available over the counter in pharmacies and a department store do not contain enough active ingredients to be effective.  This is because one product has to safely cater for a multitude of skin types and conditions.   

If you're concerned about the appearance of your skin, speak to one of our staff at Invigor8 for advice. We can help you create a personalized skin-care plan by assessing your skin type, evaluating your skin's condition and recommending products to be effective.

Invigor8 staff use and recommend Danné Montague-King (DMK) skin care products that are cosmeceutical or paramedical grade that are more pure, concentrated and effective.  It is therefore essential that a skin analysis and consultation be carried out before using one of these products.
