Adrien’s Favorite Night Cream For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

Adrien's Favorite Night Cream For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

Adrien's Favorite Night Cream For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

Adrien has been an Esthetician at Advanced Laser Clinic for several years and she loves to share her knowledge of skin care as well as her own personal skin struggles.

Adrien has always struggled with oily skin, but she also has very dry skin. She says it was this constant balancing act that sent her on the search for the perfect hydrator, which she found in SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2.

Adrien has been using Triple Lipid Restore for awhile now as her night cream and says it's had a noticeable impact on her skin. She applies it at night before she goes to bed and wakes up with her skin being super hydrated (but not oily) and plump looking that lasts all day.

She highly recommends this product for anyone that has acne prone skin but dry outer layers.

What is Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2?

Triple Lipid Restore is an anti-aging night cream that contains the optimal lipid ratio of 2% pure ceramides 1 and 3, 4% natural cholesterol, and 2% fatty acids. This ratio of lipids helps to repair your skin's barrier, provide lasting hydration, correct signs of aging and adds nourishment to aging skin.

This helps improve skin texture, evenness, and overall skin appearance. We lose lipids in our skin as we age and the 2:4:2 ratio of cholesterol-dominant cream delivers the lipids back to the skin in the concentration that our skin can use.

Triple Lipid Restore is ideal for aging, normal and dry skin types. This unique correction night cream has a patented lipid ratio which is a skin-identical ingredient.

That means these lipids are naturally occurring in the skin and are components of cell membranes which our body already recognizes as familiar and allows them to improve our skin’s health.

Triple Lipid Restore may be marketed for aging skin, but at Advanced Laser Clinic we feel that it’s never too early to start a good anti-aging regimen.

If you want more information about Triple Lipid Restore, come by our clinic and talk to Adrien or please give us a call at (417) 883-5400.

Adrien would love to share which of our medical grade skin care products that she uses personally and why she thinks they are the best.

We offer free skin care consultations to help you on your way to beautiful, healthy, protected skin.

Shelly's Favorite Double Defense For Skin Care in Springfield Missouri

Shelly's Favorite Double Defense For Skin Care in Springfield Missouri

2023 marks the 20th year since Shelly first opened the doors at Advanced Laser Clinic. For all 20 of those years, there are two products that she has used consistently: SkinCeuticals' Double Defense which consists of their CE Ferulic Vitamin C serum and Physical Fusion sunscreen products.

During this time, Shelly has also been directly involved with a busy dermatology office helping with Mohs surgeries to remove skin cancers. She believes that prevention is the key to healthy skin. This had made her very confident in her years of Double Defense prevention tactics.

It takes years of consistency in your skin care routine to preserve and maintain great, beautiful skin. Using a product for a few months will help. But using it for years is really where you really start to see the magic.

These Double Defense products are designed to work together to protect your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays.

SkinCeuticals' CE Ferulic is an award-winning vitamin C combination antioxidant serum proven to deliver advanced environmental protection. It is formulated for optimal vitamin C absorption and effectiveness.

This synergistic formula neutralizes free radicals caused by daily exposure to UV rays, pollution, and infrared-A radiation. All the while helping reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles and improving the feel of skin firmness.

CE Ferulic is 15% pure vitamin C, 1% pure vitamin E, and 0.5% ferulic acid. This potent combination is shown to increase firmness 37% and reduce the appearance of fine lines by 27% and improve wrinkles by 36%.

SkinCeuticals' Physical Fusion UV Defense SPF 50 sunscreen is an ultra-light weight tinted fluid with 100% mineral UV filters. It contains artemia salina extract that helps boost the skin’s natural defense against UV and heat induced stress. It is a non-comedogenic formula that spreads evenly and provides discreet coverage while enhancing skin radiance.

If you'd like to learn more about Shelly’s favorite skin care products, please give us a call at (417) 883-5400.

We offer free skin care consultations to help you on your way to beautiful, healthy, protected skin.

Two Great Neck Products For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

Two Great Neck Products For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

Targeted Neck Products For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

As we begin to age, we tend to focus mostly on our face. But a droopy neck can really start to show your age.

If crepiness and lines on your neck are driving you crazy, don’t think that covering it up with a scarf or wearing a turtle neck are your only options.

Advanced Laser Clinic has two great targeted neck products that can really help with anti-aging in Springfield Missouri.

Don't make the mistake of waiting to treat your neck until it’s already a problem. Using medical grade skin care in the targeted neck area can really help that delicate skin to stay in the best shape possible.

Neck skin is very different from facial skin, with a thinner and more delicate dermal layer. It also has fewer lipids and the skin barrier can weaken as early as age 30. The neck in general must give space for movement and as such can show age more than the facial skin.

Obagi has the new ELASTIderm Neck and Décolleté Concentrate that our staff loves. Its powerful triple threat ingredients are made up of the patented Bi-Mineral Contour Complex, retinoid, and arbutin.

It comes in a convenient easy to apply roller tube to treat the neck and upper chest for anti-aging. ELASTIderm Neck and Décolleté Concentrate supports skin elasticity and improves horizontal neck lines, fine lines, skin sagging, and crepiness.

Most people will notice results in as little as eight weeks, with full results in twelve weeks. We suggest this to clients in their mid-thirties and up.

SkinCeuticals has their amazing TriPeptide-R Neck Repair. This has been a staple at Advanced Laser Clinic for several years. It is a daily retinol cream specifically formulated for the neck.

TriPeptide-R is formulated with 0.2% slow-release retinol, 2.5% tripeptide concentrate, and 5% glaucine complex. This corrective technology is clinically demonstrated to target multiple signs of visible neck aging.

It is designed to target early to advanced signs of neck aging, including fine lines, and wrinkles due to repetitive movements.

It’s a good idea to start treating your neck early. We recommend clients start on their neck anti-aging as early as their 20's.

If your neck has got you down, Advanced Laser is here to help. Call us today at (417) 883-5400 or come by and see which of our anti-aging targeted neck products would be best to help your neck look its best.

Rapid Weight Loss Skin Tightening in Springfield Missouri

Rapid Weight Loss Skin Tightening in Springfield Missouri

Rapid Weight Loss Skin Tightening With TriaWave Facial Sculptor

Rapid weight loss shots are all the rage these days. They offer amazing results for people who medically need to lose weight. But they do have side effects, including the loss of muscle and skin laxity in your face.

With slower weight loss, the muscles in your face have more time to adjust and the skin can slowly regain its bounce. Rapid weight loss doesn't allow the same recovery process.

Microcurrent can help as it stimulates strengthening of the facial muscles. If you are happy with your weight loss, but not so happy with your jowls and loss of facial volume, we can help.

We offer the TriaWave Facial Sculptor that provides three synergistic treatment modalities to reduce the look of fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and dehydration. These include microcurrent, iontophoresis, and sonophoresis.

This helps to create the appearance and feel of a healthy, lifted, contoured, more youthful and plumper face.

Microcurrent technology has been around for a long time with much research to show its effectiveness in muscle and skin tightening. Iontophoresis and sonophoresis help enhance the delivery of nutrients in our medical grade skin care products.

When you add these together you get amazing, visible results. This microcurrent facial treats the face, chin and neck for best lifting.

We recommend a series of six treatments spaced a week apart. Maintenance after that would be monthly visits.

You can choose either a quick 50 minute appointment or our full treatment with alginate mask that is used to pulse your skin care products into the skin. This option is an hour and a half.

The TriaWave Facial Sculptor is a good alternative to surgery and injections, as some people are not open to those options. Microcurrent facials are non-invasive and painless.

If you are looking for facial help after rapid weight loss, Advanced Laser Clinic is here to help you. We offer free consultations to answer all your questions. Call us today at 417-883-5400.

Double Defense Protection For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

Double Defense Protection For Anti-Aging in Springfield Missouri

Double Defense Protection For Anti-Aging

May is Melanoma Awareness Month and Advanced Laser Clinic is featuring a great product protection duo for anti-aging from SkinCeuticals. Their Double Defense features the ever-popular CE Ferulic serum and Physical Fusion sunscreen.

This will really power up your defense and anti-aging with a broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen of SPF 50. Then your high-quality vitamin C serum will help combat DNA damage. This month if you buy this Double Defense set, you will save $35.

Sunscreen alone can't completely eliminate the risk of skin cancer, but it is one important thing we can do to lessen our risks.

Genetics play a large role in the development of skin cancer and you can't change that. But getting into the daily habit of using a safe sunscreen to provide protection against the sun’s damage can be very helpful.

There are also several types of prescription medications that can make your skin more photo sensitive and more reactive to the sun’s rays. In this case, sunscreen can be crucial in skin cancer prevention and anti-aging protection.

There are many different types of sunscreens and sunscreen ingredients. At Advanced Laser Clinic we prefer to use a physical block.

These active ingredients include the minerals Zinc Oxide and Titanium Oxide. These ingredients sit on top of your skin and deflect the sun’s rays.

Chemical sunscreen ingredients include avobenzone, octinoxate, and oxybenzone. These ingredients are absorbed into your skin and act more like a sponge to absorb the UV rays before your skin can soak them up.

Some people can be sensitive to these types of ingredients. There is much debate on which type of sunscreen is better, but the best sunscreen is the one that you will actually wear every day.

When you pair a high-quality sunscreen with a high-quality vitamin C serum, you are taking great strides in protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful rays and preventing skin cancer with anti-aging.

Visit Advanced Laser Clinic today to see how our skin care products can help you keep healthy skin for a lifetime.

Get Your Skin Event Ready With Fillers and Facials

As the weather warms up, we start to head into peak event season: weddings, graduations and family get-togethers. Advanced Laser Clinic has the best facial treatments to get you looking and feeling your best this Spring.

There are two main categories of skin care treatments that you can get your skin ready for all these events.

The first category is facial treatments like the Geneo 3 in 1 super facial, dermaplaning, or custom facials.

The second category is seeing Dr Talley for Dysport and/or fillers.

These are two different routes but both categories can complement each other. Some people simply do injections and disregard facials and the condition of their skin. Or vice versa.

Injections are more for specific clients who are open to doing them, but facials are a low commitment, enjoyable way to improve your skin.

All of the facials performed at Advanced Laser Clinic include deep cleaning with our signature triple cleanse process. Then we move on to whatever treatment is appropriate and requested your skin type.

No matter which treatment you choose, we end with amazing medical grade skin care products to vitalize and rehydrate the skin.

To further the benefit of your in-office treatment, we offer two great medical skin care lines from SkinCeuticals and Environ if you need to step up your home game. Your daily home regimen can have a huge impact on improving your skin.

You may need help deciding which treatments would be best for your skin type. In that case, we sit down with you for a free consultation and make a plan tailored for you.

There is no sales pitch. Just an honest assessment of how we can help you reach your goals.

Before your social calendar starts to fill up, it's a great time to think about the steps you should be taking to get your skin event ready.

We don’t perform miracles at Advanced Laser Clinic. But we do have several effective treatments to help you reach your skin care goals.

If you have never visited our clinic, maybe it’s time to start investing in your skin's future.

Mention this blog post and receive $10 off your first facial treatment. Call us today at 417-883-5400 to see how we can help you put your best face forward.

SkinCeuticals Vitamin C Effective Ingredient For Anti-Aging

When most of us think about Vitamin C, we probably think about drinking a glass of orange juice or taking a supplement to fight a cold. But it turns out that Vitamin C is also an effective ingredient for protecting your skin.

SkinCeuticals is known for their highly advanced formulas that incorporate vitamin C. To highlight this effective ingredient, they've designated April 4th as National Vitamin C Day.

To learn more about the importance of vitamin C serum in your skin care regimen, come by Advanced Laser Clinic and ask for a sample of the SkinCeuticals Vitamin C formula that would work best for your skin.

SkinCeuticals has formulated three vitamin C products to suit all skin types: their well known CE Ferulic, Phloretin CF, and their newest Silymarin CF. With these three different products, you can choose the formula that will be most effective for your skin.

All three formulas have ferulic acid, which is an antioxidant compound found in plant cells. It is added to skin care products to help reduce inflammation, promote anti-aging and even out skin tone.

Their CE Ferulic formula features a blend of antioxidants with a combination of 15% pure vitamin C, 1% vitamin E and 0.5% Ferulic acid. These ingredients together enhance protection against environmental damage and atmospheric aging.

CE Ferulic serum is proven to reduce oxidative damage by UVA/UVB rays, and ozone pollution up to 41%.

This product promotes anti-aging and treats sun damage. It helps improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and loss of firmness. It also brightens your skin's complexion.

Next on the list of amazing lineup of vitamin C options from SkinCeuticals is Phloretin CF. This product also contains a blend of antioxidants with 2% phloretin, 10% vitamin C, and 0.5% ferulic acid. The benefit of Phloretin CF is not only does this product help diminish the appearance of fine lines, but also discoloration.

The newest combination of vitamin C antioxidants from SkinCeuticals is Silymarin CF. This breakthrough vitamin C serum is for oily and blemish prone skin. The potent combination in this formula contains 0.5% silymarin (milk thistle extract), 15% l-ascorbic acid, 0.5% ferulic acid, and 0.5% salicylic acid.

This will help prevent oil oxidation that leads to breakouts. This oil-free formula is clinically proven to reduce oil oxidation by 76%, as well as reduce oiliness, refined skin texture, and visibly improve your skin.

No matter what skin type or issues you might be facing, there is a right vitamin C serum for your skin.

Our Cutting Edge Technology For Laser Hair Removal in Springfield Missouri

Cutting Edge Technology For Laser Hair Removal in Springfield Missouri

Our Cutting Edge Technology For Laser Hair Removal

When the weather starts to warm up, we start thinking about shorts and swimsuits. And with that we also think about hair removal.

Whether you choose shaving or waxing, it can be painful, messy and ineffective, as well as time consuming. Why not choose permanent hair reduction?

Advanced Laser Clinic has been leading the field in laser hair removal for 20 years. What sets us apart is our expert technicians as well as utilizing the most current and effective technology.

We like to be on the cutting edge when it comes to all of our treatment options. Our permanent hair removal treatments are no different. That is why we are proud to offer the newest diode laser from Lumenis - The LightSheer QUATTRO.

The LightSheer QUATTRO laser system is different and more versatile than other aesthetic laser hair removal options. It uses clinically proven diode laser technology to permanently remove unwanted hair, comfortably and effectively with long lasting results.

The QUATTRO’s state of the art hand pieces were developed to speed up treatment times as well as decrease the pain of treatment.

The High-Speed Vacuum Assisted handpiece uses gently suction to lift and stretch the skin. This allows the laser to be absorbed into the hair follicles more easily when treating a large area, so your treatment time is quicker.

It also helps to reduce the sensation of heat. The laser offers a second handpiece which offers a unique cooling technology, known as the ChillTip, to keep your skin cool during your laser hair removal treatment.

Most individuals who have unwanted hair are good candidates for the LightSheer QUATTRO laser, but we would recommend that you schedule a consultation to determine if it is right for you.

During this consultation, we will discuss the process of laser hair removal, your expectations and if you are a good candidate for laser hair removal.

We would love to be your permanent hair removal experts and help you on your journey to becoming hair free. Call us today to schedule your FREE consultation.

TriaWave Facial Sculptor Perfect for Skin Rejuvenation in Springfield Missouri

TriaWave Facial Sculptor Perfect for Skin Rejuvenation in Springfield Missouri

TriaWave Facial Sculptor Perfect for Skin Rejuvenation

Advanced Laser Clinic introduced the TriaWave Facial Sculptor in 2020 and our clients have been loving the results.

Environ pioneered this amazing skin rejuvenation treatment. It's a great option for people who are not interested in more invasive Medical Esthetics treatments such as Dysport and Fillers.

The TriaWave Facial Sculptor utilizes microcurrent, iontophoresis and sonophoresis to tone and deepen the penetration of medical grade skin care products. This combination makes a great outcome for your skin.

Many people have already heard of microcurrent. This technology has been around for a long time with great success. Microcurrent is like a workout for your facial muscles.

The probes send an electrical current through the skin in order to stimulate tighter muscles. Just like a workout it does take time and consistency to get the best results.

It will lift and tighten the skin. This treatment can help address specific issues such as pigmentation and specific lines on the face.

The best way to utilize this treatment is to come in weekly for a series of six treatments. Then maintenance after that is a monthly session. This advanced technology can really help to address laxity in the skin, smooth out skin texture and help with crepey skin.

We can combine targeted products to use in the penetration phase. The iontophoresis and sonophoresis can actually manipulate the skin cells to let products be more absorbed and utilized in the skin.

There are options of super potent vitamin serums, filler plumping serums, serums to hydrate, and serums to help lighten pigmentation. All of this will be customized specifically for your needs.

It is truly a feat of skin rejuvenation technology. No machine has ever combined these three systems together.

The TriaWave Facial Sculptor can also be used as a standalone treatment before an event. Your skin will look tighter and more glowing. It will be hydrated and healthy looking.

If this treatment sounds interesting to you, call Advanced Laser Clinic today at 417-883-5400. We always offer free consultations to see if this would be a good fit for your skin goals.
