Simple & FREE tips to improve your ACNE - Lifestyle edition

1) Toss your fabric softener, dryer sheets and switch to fragrance free detergent! 🫧

2) Cut out dairy products where you can, there are TONS of dairy free alternatives 🥛

3) Biotin can lead to breakouts in the way your body absorbs it and other vitamins. It’s not so much that biotin causes acne 💊

It’s that it prevents your body from absorbing other nutrients that normally help counteract the effects of acne.

4) Stress: These hormones increase your skin’s oil production, which can exacerbate acne.

Stress, anxiety, and fear might also worsen acne by triggering the production of cytokines, tiny proteins that stoke inflammation, including inflammation of the area around sebaceous glands, the glands that produce oil.

5) Birth Control- If you’re taking BC, talk to your OBGYN about selecting a BC that is higher in estrogen and lower in androgen potency 💊

If you just got off birth control, you might notice more breakouts. Give your hormones about 90 days to balance!

TCA CROSS✖️ACNE SCARRING

How does TCA Cross work for ice pick scars?👇

TCA Cross treats the depression, or area of scarring itself, and not the surrounding skin. The acid is directly deposited with the edge of a syringe or a toothpick/applicator, into the atrophic scar, leaving the entire skin surrounding the scar preserved.

This is a stand-alone treatment or combine with microneedling to enhance the results!

🗓 3-6 sessions required for best results

✋ proven ways to prevent wrinkles:

It’s never too late to start implementing these steps, HOWEVER, prevention is key! 🤌

Start with the basics like sleeping on your back OR if you’re a side sleeper like me, invest in a beauty pillow (you’ll thank me later) 💤

If you’re expressive and talk with your forehead:
I’d recommend wearing Sio beauty patches at night to prevent expression lines. Botox would be the next step BUT if you’re not ready, try this option!

STORY TIME 🥹

First off, I am soo grateful for where I’m at in life. I don’t give myself enough credit or take the time to reflect on my journey but here we go..

My younger self (15-21) didn’t know what the hell she wanted to do. My goal at the time, was simply just to make it out of high school which I barely did dropping out 6 months into my senior year (not my proudest moment) but here we are.

I was the proverbial couch surfer for several years and partied my ass off (whew not sure how I survived work the next day) 😅 School was always difficult for me so attending a university was NOT an option. I eventually found my purpose which was esthetics. I’ve always dealt with problematic skin as an adolescent so naturally I wanted to find a solution to clear my skin for good!

Fast forward ⏩ I started working for a plastic surgeon in Austin in 2012 and eventually moved to Houston in 2015. I’ve always been a rebel at heart so I knew working for an employer would not fulfill my purpose 💅🏼 I eventually rented a studio space on the weekend which I would grow my clientele and later evolve into Beautopia Skin Studio (shoutout to the hubs for helping me decide on the name). I now have 3 amazing women that are on my team and have helped me scale my business!! 💓

There’s some days where it feels like I’m living in a dream and don’t know what I’m doing or how I got here. I’ve realized that’s the affects of imposter syndrome; which 75% of women report having personably experienced, according to a study I read.

To all the entrepreneurs that took the leap of faith and left their 9-5 job.. I see you and I’m soo f*cking proud of you! We did it y’all🥂

TREATMENT PLAN FOR STUBBORN HYPERPIGMENTATION 🫶

🧴PREPPING THE SKIN: We require 2-3 weeks of prepping prior to performing any of our chemical peels. Prepping consists of retinol 1% and hydroquinone 4% (or a form of tyrosinase inhibitor)

WHY WE PREP⁉️ Prevents complications such as post inflammatory hyperpigmentation or scarring!

🔑 When scheduling an appointment for a chemical peel, it’s imperative that the aesthetician you choose has previous experience with treating all skin types/fitzpatricks!

I repeat CLEAR SKIN WILL NOT HAPPEN OVERNIGHT 🗣

It’s important to have realistic expectations when you’re starting your skin care journey 🔑

Most of our clients can expect a change in their skin within 90 days IF you’re consistent with professional treatments + a proper skin care regimen.

DEHYDRATED SKIN = LACK OF WATER 💧

Unlike dry skin - dehydrated skin is caused from a lack of water, whereas dry skin is caused from lack of oil.

Dehydrated skin is a skin condition which means we can change the condition by incorporating products to help combat the lack of water.

Products recommendations: 👇

-Your favorite hyaluronic acid 💧
-Skin softening oil (steer clear of coconut oil as this is pore clogging)
-EFA’s (essential fatty acids) 💊
