Summer Tips For Healthy Skin Care in Springfield Missouri

Summer Tips For Healthy Skin Care in Springfield Missouri

Summer Tips For Healthy Skin Care

Everyone always looks forward to summer with warmer weather and lots of outdoor activities. But summer also brings with it different conditions for your skin to deal with. Heat, humidity, sweating from the sun and sunscreen all affect your skin.

So what should you do differently over the summer to maintain healthy skin care in Springfield Missouri? Certain changes can be pretty simple, like changing from a milk cleanser that you might use in the winter to a gel cleanser that would be more appropriate for summer.

You also might want to change out a heavier moisturizer for a lighter-weight product. Using a cleanser with Alpha hydroxy acids can help keep cellular turnover going to reduce blemishes.

Some people have skin types that require extra exfoliation in the summer. This could be in the form of a light acid peel, or using more friction with a wash rag to exfoliate.

Environ's Hydrating Clay Mask is a very gentle way to exfoliate and detox the skin, and can be used regularly. Cleansing morning and night might be necessary if you sweat more in the warmer temperatures.

Environ's Dual Action Pre-Cleansing Oil is another summertime staple. You might think the last thing oily skin needs is more oil, but oil actually helps dissolve oil, which in turn aids with deep cleansing for your skin. This pre-cleansing oil should be used both in summer and winter.

With heat causing more sweating and additional sun exposure, this leads to more sunscreen usage. This combination can lead to more breakouts for a lot of people.

At Advanced Laser Clinic we take a break from most of our corrective anti-aging procedures over the summer due to the increased sun exposure. We instead focus more on deep cleansing and light peeling of the skin.

Manual extractions will help to keep your skin clear and are included in all of our facials.

There are several treatments that can still be utilized over the summer. Eyebrow shaping, lash lifting and tinting, permanent makeup, Geneo, Tri-Wave, and facials are all great things to continue during the summer.

If you need recommendations for healthy summer skin care, call Advanced Laser Clinic at 417-883-5400. Our trained staff can help keep your skin healthy and radiant all year long.

Our June Special On Lash Tint and Lash Lift in Springfield Missouri

Our June Special On Lash Tint and Lash Lift in Springfield Missouri

Our June Special On Lash Tint and Lash Lift

Once school is out and the weather finally starts to warm up, it officially begins to feel like summer. If you're as excited for summer as we are, then you will love Advanced Laser Clinic's June special.

For the month of June, you can enjoy $10 off our lash lift and tint services so your eyes look great whether you're at the lake or the pool. You won't have to worry about your mascara running.

Lash lift and tint is a combination of two eyelash services. The lash lifting part is similar to hair perming.

Just like you can perm your hair to make it curly, the lash lift puts a semi-permanent curl in your eyelashes. This is a chemical process that changes the texture and structure of the lashes, for the appearance of added volume, length and curl.

The tinting part of this service colors your eyelashes black. These lash lift and tint products are designed specifically to be used on your eyelashes.

Having a lash lift and tint is a perfect way to get ready for summer. After 24 hours, your lashes will stay curled on their own and retain the dark tinting. This gives the illusion of wearing mascara without all of the hassle.

Waterproof mascara is a good option, but it can be very difficult to remove. A lot of people don't realize that lash lift and tint is an affordable alternative.

A lash lift and tint treatment can also be a great alternative to getting eyelash extensions. Lash lifting and tinting is a lot less maintenance than lash extensions and needs to be repeated only every 8 to 9 weeks.

Eyelash extensions are typically filled every two weeks. Our lash lift and tine treatment takes about an hour and has no down time.

You can't get your eyelashes wet for 24 hours, but after that you can treat them normally. Then you will wake up each day with amazing eyelashes!

This is the perfect treatment for people who are in the water a lot. If you are a lake goer or or a swimmer, you will love this option.

Having your lashes lifted and tinted can make a big difference for a lot of people. Especially if you're blonde and have light colored eyelashes, this can be a game-changer for you. Just one more step you can cross off your daily routine.

Normally this treatment costs $95, but in June you will save $10.

If this sounds like the treatment for you, come let Meagan or Adrian give your lashes a lift and tint and see the difference yourself.

The Perfect Sunscreen To Help Prevent Wrinkles in Springfield Missouri

The Perfect Sunscreen To Help Prevent Wrinkles in Springfield Missouri

The Perfect Sunscreen To Help Prevent Wrinkles

Probably one of the top factors that we're asked to repair when it comes to skin rejuvenation are because of sun damage. Whether it's dark spots or wrinkles, the UV rays from the sun age your skin faster.

The best way to prevent dark spots and wrinkles is to protect your skin with sunscreen. But no matter how many times we are told to wear sunscreen daily, this simple skincare step can feel like a formidable task.

For many people, that heavy, oily feeling of traditional sunscreen on your skin or the irritating white hue you get from zinc oxide are the biggest hurdles to overcome.

Whatever your excuses have been to not wear sunscreen on a regular basis are the same excuses that we've used in the past. But we've found a sunscreen that has transformed our daily skincare routine. SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion UV Defense Sunscreen.

This tinted sunscreen is a weightless fluid that combines 100% mineral filters with translucent color spheres for effective broad spectrum UVA/UVB protections and an even, radiant finish. This sunscreen is so lightweight that it disappears immediately into your skin and allows you to put on your makeup immediately after application.

Physical Fusion is a high protection zinc oxide sunscreen which also contains artemia salina, a plankton extract known to increase your skin’s resistance to UV and heat-induced stress.

We love that this sunscreen adapts to most skin tones without adding that white cast of traditional sunscreens. It is water resistant for up to 40 minutes and is paraben-free, fragrance-free and noncomedogenic.

If you have sensitive skin and other sunscreens have bothered you in the past – this is the sunscreen for you.

For the men out there who think that a tinted sunscreen is just for girls, then you need to try the Sheer Physical UV Defense SPF 50. This is an ultra-sheer, transparent sunscreen.

This silky, sheer fluid spreads easily and dries quickly, leaving no residue. It has all the same anti-aging and wrinkle protection as the Physical fusion without the tint.

With May being Skin Cancer Awareness Month, Advanced Laser Clinic has all of our Mineral Sunscreens on sale for 10% OFF. This includes our SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion and Sheer Physical Sunscreens.

It is never too late to start wearing sunscreen on a daily basis to prevent sun damage and wrinkles. We think you will love the feel of these mineral sunscreens once you discover how they look and feel.

May Special On Our Mineral Sunscreens For Anti Aging in Springfield Missouri

May Special On Our Mineral Sunscreens For Anti Aging in Springfield Missouri

Our May Special On Mineral Sunscreens For Anti Aging

Many people may not realize that sunscreen is one of the most important anti-aging products you can use. How do you know which one is best for you?

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, so Advanced Laser Clinic is celebrating by offering a discount on the most important product in skin care: sunscreens.

Sunscreen may not be the most glamorous product in your skincare regimen, but did you know that it is the most important anti aging product you can use? Sun exposure or photo-aging is responsible for 80-90% of visible signs of aging.

But the good news is that it can actually be prevented. Daily use of sunscreen can shield your skin from harmful UV rays that cause premature aging and skin damage including fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, collagen depletion, loss of elasticity and most dangerous of all skin cancers.

Now that you know the importance of sunscreen, how do you choose the right one? With so many sunscreens on the market, finding one that you will use daily, that doesn’t cause irritation or breakouts and feels good on your skin is the key to ensuring you have good SPF habits.

At Advanced Laser Clinic, we only carry medical grade physical sunscreens with the best skincare secret ingredient: zinc oxide. Zinc oxide is the most effective sunscreen ingredient that is universally tolerated across all skin types.

There are many benefits to zinc oxide including blocking from harmful UVA and UVB rays as well as being photo-stable and water-resistant, which means it is slow to break down in the sun or in the water.

Unlike chemical sunscreens, which are not good for your skin, zinc oxide is a physical sunscreen which means it sits on the surface and deflects the sun’s rays providing instant protection against any sun damage.

There are only two FDA approved mineral sunscreen ingredients: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. While zinc oxide is known for having a heavier, opaque, white hue which can make the skin look pale or ashy, the newest formulations use micronized technology to reduce the zinc oxide particle size so it appears transparent when applied to the skin.

At Advanced Laser Clinic, we carry several different micronized zinc oxide sunscreens with tint to achieve full SPF protection that add a little color as well.

During the month of May, come in and see our Mineral Sunscreen options and get started protecting your skin today. All of our mineral sunscreens are 10% off.

Let our trained staff discuss the options with you and help you choose the very best mineral sunscreen for you. It is never too late to start this daily habit and stop premature aging at the core.

Beautiful Skin Is A Journey With Expert Skin Care in Springfield Missouri

Beautiful Skin Is A Journey With Expert Skin Care in Springfield Missouri

Beautiful Skin Is A Journey With Expert Skin Care

At Advanced Laser Clinic, many of our customers are searching for the best skin care solutions:

"How do I get rid of my wrinkles?"
"How do I correct my age spots?"
"What can I do about my sagging jowls?"

While it's only natural to want a quick fix, the truth is that skincare is a journey. And the earlier you start on developing your skin care routine, the better the results.

It's never too late to start on your skincare journey. But if you'll get started at the onset of aging or the specific conditions you're trying to correct, you will have the best results.

Another common question we get asked is "How often should I come in for a procedure?" or "How often should I perform my home skin care routines?"

Your skin is aging every day. Getting procedures performed on a regular basis and consistently sticking to your home skin care routine can help combat time.

But rather than thinking about beautiful skin as a destination, it is more helpful to see it as a journey. Repetition is key. Most often your journey would begin with a medical grade skin care regimen at home.

Advanced Laser Clinic has several medical skin care lines to address most skin concerns. Our highly knowledgeable staff can point you in the right direction. We can custom tailor our regimens specific to your concerns.

The next step you may consider is an anti-aging treatment such as micro-needling or ResurFX. If your concern is hyperpigmentation, then we would consider IPL treatments.

If a client is looking for a non-invasive solution to skin tightening, then we would steer you towards our TriaWave technology.

But remember that repetition is key. Even facial injections, which are the quickest solution to correcting wrinkles, must be repeated on a regular basis to maintain results.

Once you realize that your skin care is a journey, you'll want an expert guide that you can trust to help lead you along your journey.

Advanced Laser Clinic has been in business for 19 years. We have well-trained staff to assist you on your journey. We tailor treatment plans to specifically address your needs, concerns and comfort level.

When you are ready to start your skincare journey, call 417-883-5400 to book your free consultation. We will get you started down the right path for your specific needs.

Should You Choose Microblading or Powder Brows in Springfield Missouri?

Should You Choose Microblading or Powder Brows in Springfield Missouri

Should You Choose Microblading or Powder Brows?

More people than ever before are discovering the benefits of permanent eyebrows. They love having a low maintenance way to always have the type of eyebrows that they've always wanted. They also enjoy having their brows stay in place without smudging or rubbing off.

Another great benefit is the time they save each day without having to hassle with getting their eyebrows even and shaped the same before heading out the door.

Your permanent eyebrows can be shaped and styled to fit your face and there are different permanent eyebrow techniques to choose from. The two most popular techniques are microblading and powder brows.

Microblading is a relatively recent method of doing permanent eyebrows. The microblading trend really hit big around five years ago. It had been a little known method used in the beginning of permanent makeup, but in the last several years it has become a very popular technique for permanent eyebrows.

Then came the term powder brows. This is a newer term for the tried and true method of doing permanent makeup, which uses a tattoo machine. By definition, any form of permanent makeup is considered tattooing because pigment is being implanted into the skin.

So what are the major differences between these two permanent eyebrow techniques?

Microblading

This method of tattooing is done with a very fine micro blade. The blade is used to implant pigment into the skin via individual strokes. These strokes resemble brow hairs. Each stroke is done by hand. The microbladed eyebrow looks more natural and looks like there is actual hair in the area when there is not.

Powder Brows

This method of tattooing is done using a tiny needle grouping with the eyebrow tattoo machine. This needle grouping is used to cover the desired brow shape with pigment. Thus filling in the brow and making the brows look “done” or like you have put makeup on your brows. Powder brows have more of a dramatic look.

Both methods are very beneficial and time saving when applying makeup. Microblading is best used on younger skin with little texture to it. Wrinkles in the brow area will affect microblading.

Microblading is a beautiful, soft technique that can help look like you have more eyebrow hair where it might be missing. It's a great way to fill in thinner brows while still making them look natural.

Powder brows are a more fluid, covered look. Powder brows can be applied to all skin types.

Both techniques have the same before and after care. Both methods involve custom brow mapping and pigment selection. Your permanent makeup technician will advise you on the best technique for your skin type and the type of look you are wanting to achieve.

Either way you will leave with amazing looking, low maintenance eyebrows.

If you are interested in permanent makeup, call Advanced Laser Clinic at 417-883-5400 to book a free consultation today.

  • It lightens the skin by removing dull skin and revealing healthier tissue.
  • It improves skin tone caused by sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and Melasma.
  • It can help slow the signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles.
  • This peel stimulates collagen to produce firmer skin.

The Perfect Derma Peel is a quick, in-office application. We will prep your skin, then apply the peel. It will need to remain on your skin for 6 hours or even kept on your skin overnight for a more intense peel.

Peeling will begin around the third day and can be moderate to intense peeling. Your skin is usually back to normal in about a week. UV exposure needs to be avoided during this time. Sunscreen of 30 needs to be applied daily. This treatment can be repeated two to four times, spaced at least four weeks apart.

If this medium depth peel interests you, call Advanced Laser Clinic at 417-883-8400 for more information. Consultations are always free.

If you are feeling extra peely, then this month is also a good time for a foot peel. Our popular Baby Foot peel is buy one get one half price. Now is the perfect time to get this in, so you can start showing off your feet in warmer weather.

How Does The Geneo System Work?

This isn't your average superficial oxygen facial. The Geneo OxyPods create oxygen within the skin, not just on the skin. When the dormant all-natural ingredients from the OxyPod come in contact with the primer gel this encourages the release of CO2.

The Geneo process triggers a natural physiological reaction in the body. oxygen is carried to the surface of the skin where the increased levels enhance the absorption of the ingredients in the oxy pod and throughout the rest of the facial.

The Genao facial begins with targeted treatments for each skin condition. Their patented oxygeneo technology combines with microdermabrasion type exfoliation, resulting in a bubbly CO2 Rich environment on the skin. this triggers the body's unique natural process of increased oxygen levels internally. the oxygenation process promotes exfoliation enhance the penetration of active ingredients in the skin.

Oxygenating your skin increases blood flow and cell metabolism, hydrates and detoxifies the skin, and promotes repair and regeneration of collagen and elastin.

There are four types of Geneo Treatments to choose from:

  • The Balance Facial targets oily and acne-prone skin.
  • The Hydrate Facial enhances moisture retention and dry skin types.
  • The Illuminate Facial brightens the skin and evens the tone.
  • The Revive Facial reduces fine lines and wrinkles.

No matter which treatment you choose, every Geneo Facial provides immediate and long-lasting results like healthier and younger-looking skin, a dewy glow, and improved cell production.
