Tanning Bed Woes

As the summer sun sets behind us and winter soon approaching, many people begin to visit tanning salons. Tanning salons are considered a quick, easy way to get a tan; but that’s not all they are capable of. The usage of tanning beds may cause dry, itchy skin, and premature aging including wrinkles; they are known to age skin more rapidly. If that isn’t scary enough, tanning beds can increase the risk of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer. Melanoma can spread not only to the organs, but bones as well. It causes dangers to both the skin and the eyes, damaging the retina, and even burning the cornea. Tanning bed users are more likely to develop basal call carcinoma on top of squamous cell carcinoma, which stays on the skin forever.
Tanning beds pose dangers to everyone, especially teenagers. Since the teenage body is still developing, it is more susceptible to the risks of tanning. Many teens and college students are regulars at the salons, and are unaware of the hidden dangers. Researchers have found that the younger one begins tanning, the more likely they will be to develop skin cancer in the future.
There are two kinds of ultraviolet rays that both the sun and tanning beds release; ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B. Although spending a day in the sun can be harmful, spending 10 minutes in a tanning bed is worse. The skin is being exposed to these damaging rays at stronger levels.
With more than 1 million Americans visiting tanning salons daily, skin cancer is becoming more prevalent. Being tan is said to build self confidence, but in the long run, visits to the tanning salon can be detrimental to the body. Use sun protection daily with our SPF30 UVA/UVB Vitamin C Sunscreen.

Stress and Aging

DKM Skincare Stressed out

Everyone has stress at some point in their lives; some have it more than others. There are many causes of stress including financial struggles, working long hours, and the daily routines of life. It can negatively impact one’s body, including how your skin ages. We can tell how a person is feeling by looking at their face and by the same token see how well they are aging. Depending on how stressed out you are can determine how rapidly you show signs of aging. It is essential for everyone to have a relaxation plan and when it comes to skincare, there are several steps you can take to keep your skin looking fresh.
A mature person who properly takes care of their skin can noticeably reduce the signs of aging. So it is worth taking the time to develop a skin care regiment that could possibly knockoff a few years and help you look and feel younger. Getting regular facials help your skin look and feel refreshed. Moreover, it helps you recapture your youthful flair and vibrancy. Facials improve skin texture, tone, appearance, and more importantly they make you feel good. A facial peel is another procedure that can result in healthier skin. It removes the top layer of dermal tissue, allowing a new layer of skin with fewer age spots and wrinkles.
A procedure, commonly known as the “lunchtime peel”, is microdermabrasion.
This exfoliates and gently resurfaces the skin, giving way to clearer, smoother skin. In addition, it stimulates the growth of new skin cells, and improves skin texture. This procedure is done fairly quickly and can have a lasting effect on how you look and feel.
Relaxation plays an important part in stress management… obvious opposites. By taking care of your skin everyday, not only will you look and feel younger, it will help you take a break and recharge your busy life. We at DKM Skincare, do not like premature aging, and we are sure you agree that no one likes looking old. So, take a break, choose a facial that is right for you, leave stress behind and reeeeelax.

What Can I Do About Cellulite?

Cellulite is a big concern for women and men alike. There are a lot of stigmas surrounding cellulite and even more myths. So, what is cellulite? How do we treat cellulite?

What is Cellulite?

Cellulite is actually a very normal condition of the skin. It first starts to appear when a collection of fat pushes against the connective tissue beneath your skin and causes the surface of the skin to dimple and look lumpy. To check if you have cellulite, you can squeeze a portion of skin on your thighs, buttocks, or stomach. If there is any dimpling in the skin, you most likely have cellulite.

Several factors can determine whether a person will have cellulite in their lifetime and how much they will have. Your genes, your gender, the amount of body fat you have and the thickness of your skin are all linked with the how much cellulite you have – your age is also contributing factor. Overweight individuals are not the only ones that get cellulite, because trapped fat is more superficial, even people with a healthy lifestyle and are thin, have problems with cellulite as well.

How to Treat Cellulite?

The good news is that with a healthy diet, minimal exercise, and a body treatment called Endermologie, you can start to get rid of your cellulite. Dkm skincare offers a series of treatments that will shape your body, and smooth out your cellulite dimples! This innovative treatment is called Lipomassage by Endermologie. This treatment focuses on the superficial fat layers that cause cellulite, while also working with your lymphatic system to drain excess water weight, and toxins. When you complete a series of treatments, you should experience a smoother, more shapely body that has little to no cellulite. The best part is that the treatment does not hurt! The treatment usually lasts about 30 minutes and is a relaxing massage given by a professional esthetician with the innovative Lipomassage machine.
