Prevention is better than cure

Keep your skin, hair, and nails healthy and looking their best by following these practical tips.

Skin care

    • Use skin care products that have strong science behind them and have been proven safe and effective in human studies.
    • For day, wear sunscreen and consider using products containing antioxidants because they also have sun-protection properties. At night, consider using products containing retinoids, peptides or growth factors for their repair properties.

Skin cancer

    • Get to know your skin. If something is bleeding or doesn’t look right, see a dermatologist.
    • Skin self examine should be a regular part of your healthy lifestyle.

Stress and the skin

    • Stress can worsen psoriasis or rosacea, result in acne lesions that are more inflamed and persistent, cause brittle nails and ridging of the nails, lead to hair loss, worsen or cause hives, and induce excessive perspiration. Reducing your stress can help you skin condition.
    • Consider using stress-management techniques to reduce blood vessel over-activity (a primary cause of blushing or flushing of the skin).
    • Make changes to your life style to reduce stress and sun exposure.

Cosmetic procedures

    • If you’re considering purchasing any at-home kit to improve the look of your skin, such as a microdermabrasion kit, talk to a professional first. Safety can be a concern if these at-home treatments are used improperly or if an active ingredient causes an unforeseen skin reaction. It also is important to know that the concentration of active ingredients in these products is much lower than that used by professionals. Therefore, most at-home treatments do not produce results as dramatic or long-lasting as the cosmetic procedures performed in professional offices.
    • Talk to a professional about how lasers, wrinkle fillers and botulinum rejuvenation can be used to diminish signs of aging that concern you.
