If the burn is swelling and forming a blister, the skin is trying to heal itself from within. To help with the healing burn process use a soothing/cooling gel that has an alo vera ingredient within it, this also helps with the pain form a burn and will assist in it healing further. If you don’t have any gels, creams or lotions you could try a alo vera plant. You need to keep hydration within the burnt area to reduce the affects of the burn and stop any permanent scarring occurring.

 Investing in yourself

Cosmetic tattooing is considered to be the makeup of the future. Worldwide, women use this procedure to enhance their overall looks. Under this procedure, hypo allergenic pigments are implanted into the skin by using either a very small machine comprising of a very fine needles or a hand tool of very fine needles. The end result is something that is totally different from that of conventional tattooing. You will find that there are no heavy blocks of color but just simple and beautiful enhancement, all done in a natural manner. While undergoing this procedure, anesthetic is used to decrease any pain or discomfort that you may feel.

Quite often decorative tattooing is done on different parts of the upper body like your arms or your back or even chest by using solid colored ink to get a permanent make up. If you are planning to have a touch of permanent makeup to your eyebrows then you should look at using a technique called the feather touch eye brow tattooing which helps in giving your eyebrows a natural and realistic look.

How to enhance your looks

Just imagine what you would look like if you used a solid block of color for your eyebrows. The end result may not be what you are looking for at all. Now consider how you can use and draw with an eyebrow pencil to enhance the lines or darken the color. If you are using a good pencil, you will find no difficulty in using light touches to trace the hairs that do not exist. In fact,you can actually give a very good representation of the hairs with soft and feathery strokes with this technique. Even when a regular tattooing machine is used with this technique.

It is said that a well balanced eyebrow gives framing and emphasis to your entire face. Feather touch eye brow tattooing actually helps in lifting the eye brows to give them a youthful look. In fact you can now get rid of various concerns like thin and over plucked eyebrows or sparse and very light natural eyebrows by correcting and addressing them. This helps in adding fullness and definition without actually having to compromise on the natural look. The best part of feather touch eye brow tattooing is that you can actually reshape or reconstruct every eyebrow by replicating each hair strand at a microscopic level to give your eye brows a very realistic and natural look.

Eyebrows

Drawing on eyebrows each day can be time consuming for most women. In addition, as we get older it is a lot harder as the eyesight is not so good, and the hands are not as precise. Eyebrows frame the shape of your face, so it s very important to have the correct shape and colour Eyebrows! Here at Murrumba Downs Beauty clinic we do many different Tattooing procedures.

The tattooing procedure can reshape poorly arched or uneven eyebrows to put the beauty back in them, fill-in sparse eyebrows and create new eyebrows to anyone who has suffered eyebrow loss from Alopecia, Burns, over Waxing/Plucking or Cancer treatments.

Is it Permanent?

This is the one misconception about permanent makeup. Once placed in the upper reticular layer of the dermis (one to two millimeters) the fluid part of the pigment is carried out of the body leaving only tiny molecules of colour. The colour is affected by environmental factors unlike a “body tattoo” that can be protected at least part of the time from UV exposure, but the face is constantly exposed. It is hard to focus on beauty with your eyebrows with so much bad exposure. Over time bleaching or fading will occur. How quickly this happens depends on client’s lifestyle choices and exposure to UV light.  Also another factor is if a client goes to Beauty salons and has regular facial peels this could eventually fade tattooing -we don’t want this if we want to keep the beauty in our eyebrows.

Enlarged Pores

A pore is an opening on the skin that secretes sebaceous oil to lubricate and protect the surface of the skin. Keep your face clean and resist the urge to pick at blemishes this will prevent pores from becoming irritated, inflamed, and more noticeable.

Enlarged pores is usually results in a skin due to the over activity of the sebaceous glands.  Enlarged pores on the face can also be the result of hereditary factors. If your mum and dad had them, you may too. Oil is secreted by the glands through the pores, causing the pore to be clogged with dead skin cells and oil, when the oil hardens the pore enlarges. This normally occurs during puberty, when oil glands begin to increase the amount of oil that they pump through your pores.

The pore is stretched and loses their natural resilience. Excessive secretion of oil and clogging of the pore, over a period will thicken them and make them enlarged. The skin begins to look coarse have an orange peel effect and loose its smooth, porcelain quality.

If you have an oily skin, it is important to keep the enlarged pore free of sebum.  Wash the skin with a quality cleanser to reduce the surface oil. Use a good quality skin toner daily to remove oil from the skin and to close pores also you should exfoliate skin at this 2-3 times a week to remove dead skin cells. Regular cleansing and use of correct products that reduces surface grease can help to refine the enlarged pore. This will result in a smooth clean textured skin.

Use skin care products that will increase levels of collagen and elastin production such as vitamin C this will help prevent the pores from stretching any further. In addition, the use of products with alpha hydroxy acids salicylic acids will exfoliate your skin.

Microdermabrasion, Facial peels and Intense Pulse Light Treatments performed at Beauty Clinics will provide benefits to help reduce the size of enlarged pores.

(Is an Inflammatory skin disease)

Acne Vulgaris is a common facial condition occurring in adolescence and rarely in early and mid-adult life. The cause is the blockage of  pilosebaceous glands with surrounding inflammation, and this can occur because of a number of different factors.

Clinical features and cause of Acne vulgaris

Acne presents in areas rich in sebaceous glands such as the face, back and sternal area. The features are:

Ø       Blackheads

Ø       Crusting of skin eruptions

Ø       Cysts

Ø       Inflammation around the skin eruptions

Ø       Pustules

Ø       Redness around the skin eruptions

Ø       Scarring of the skin

Ø       Whiteheads

The skin may be very greasy (seborrhoea). Rupture of the inflamed lesions may lead to deep-seated dermal inflammation and nodulocystic lesions, which are more likely to cause facial scarring. There is a tendency for spontaneous improvement over a number of years but acne can persist into adult life.

Take the following steps to lessen the effects of Acne:

Ø       Seeing a qualified Beauty Therapist, who will recommend a quality skin care range for your skin.

Ø      Clean your skin gently with a recommend skin care

Ø       Remove all dirt or make-up.

Ø      Wash once or twice a day, including after exercising. However, avoid excessive or repeated skin washing.

Ø      Shampoo your hair regularly, especially if it is oily.

Ø       Keep your hair back  and out of your face.

Ø      Do not to squeeze, scratch, pick, or rub the pimples. Although it might be tempting to do this, it can lead to scarring and skin infections.

Ø      Avoid touching your face with your hands or fingers.

Ø      Avoid greasy cosmetics; look for water-based or “non-comedogenic” formulas such as mineral Make-Up.

Ø      Take make-up off at night, and cleanse twice as to remove all the Make-Up.

Ø      Exfoliate at least twice a week with a recommended skin care.

Ø      Having fortnightly treatments of Microdermabrasion.

If these steps do not clear up the blemishes to an acceptable level, after a reasonable time frame around 3 to 6 months. See your doctor or dermatologist and discuss other options that will be available to you.

The Rejuvi Tattoo removal system is a revolutionary method of ink extraction developed in the USA. It has been extensively researched, developed, and tested for over ten years and in use worldwide for over five years. Here at Murrumba Downs Beauty clinic we have had great result.

The Rejuvi Tattoo removal system is suitable, effective for both professional, homemade tattoos, and permanent make-up on most areas of the body and face, apart from sensitive areas that have high levels of moisture e.g. Lips and near Eyes Lids. The treatment is not colour selective (unlike laser) and acts on all colour pigments.

The Rejuvi Tattoo removal system works much like the original Tattoo, but instead of using ink uses a specially formulated cream that is designed to bond with the original Tattoo ink and draws it to the surface of the skin, then forms thick and tough protective scab, which will eventually drop off taking the tattoo with it. The treatment is so effective that in just three to four sessions can usually be completely removed, compared to dozens of treatments required by laser. The benefits of this tattoo removal system over other methods of tattoo removal are numerous. This treatment is substantially less painful than other removal methods and less likely to scar.

A treatment normally takes around 45 to 60 minutes to cover a 2×2 inch square area. Most clinics can apply topical anaesthetic prior to treatment, which makes this treatment much more comfortable than the original Tattoo. There is also no need to avoid direct sunlight after treatment.

It is imperative to keep the skin area dry and to apply the Rejuvi super soothing skin cream after the scab has dropped off, to achieve maximum healing result, the scab normally takes between 14-25 days to lift off, from the original date of treatment, the skin can be quite pink/red, raised or even dipped. This is quite normal and it is easy to assume that scarring has occurred to the area but it will slowly return to normal skin over a period of months and these effects should diminish. There are no guarantees though as every body’s skin repairs different.

It is important not to confuse the Rejuvi system with any other method of Tattoo removal. Only a trained Tattoo or permanent make-up artists can only perform the Rejuvi Tattoo removal system.
