Skin Tightening... Can it Be Done Naturally???

                Do you want expensive, scarring, and 
             painful skin tightening procedures?    

                                           Or 
                        Naturally applied products,
       that can tighten and firm your skin at home!

Why Your Skin Isn't Firm:
It starts as early as your late 20's and early 30's, where you notice changes in the texture of your skin. As the skin ages and the body endures dramatic changes like pregnancy, weight loss and weight gain, the quality and amount of collagen become poor.  That's why you want to create thick, strong, plump collagen inside so that the skin on the outside looks smooth and refined.

Things to Know:
 - If you smoke or don't protect your skin from the sun, you cause sever damage to your collagen fibers.
 - What you eat can affect minerals and vitamins needed in healthy skin production and maintenance.

Hard Facts About Skin Tightening Technologies:
Whether it be fractional lasers, infrared, or radiofrequency technologies, you're still likely to experience redness and possible swelling using one or a combination of all technologies in skin tightening procedures.  Along with the swelling and redness, comes pain and a high chance of scaring. Especially for those people with over sensitive skin!

Did You Know?
- Most skin-tightening machines claim that topical anesthetic isn't required. But that still doesn't mean the proceedure won't hurt.
- Just like any aesthetic procedure , skin-tightening treatments are not without their risks.
- While side affects are dependent on the device used, more serious side affects can include mild burns, lingering soreness and redness.
