Feeling Down? 4 Self-Care Services to Schedule

Be honest: do you love your appearance? If you’re anything like us, you look in the mirror and become engrossed by minuscule, barely-noticeable imperfections. While the random passerby would never notice these issues or blemishes, they cause you to turn your face and hide away from the world. But what if there were solutions to alleviate your issues and raise your sense of self-worth? If this sounds like a far-off pipe dream, think again.

Stem-Cell Therapies

Skincare professionals who specialize in making people look amazing, such as those at Capitis Medical and Aesthetics, know how detrimental inflammation can be. For this reason, stem-cell therapies are a great option for some self care.

Without getting into the advanced medical jargon, stem cells target problematic areas and alleviate signs of damage and aging. While each patient’s mileage may vary, here’s what stem-cell treatment can do: 

  • Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
  • Alleviate redness and inflamed patches
  • Plumps up the skin
  • Creates a “youthful-like” appearance
  • Tones the skin’s surface
  • Creates even skin tone and coloration  

Because of the above reasons, stem-cell-based skincare and haircare treatments are “non-negotiable.”

Fillers

As we mature, our facial complexion begins to mold and shift in unnatural ways. While many individuals chalk this up as a part of becoming older, it doesn’t have to be. With natural-looking fillers, we can reverse the hands of time and restore our youthful appearance with ease.

In general terms, fillers are used on patients who deal with excessive fine lines, unwanted wrinkles, uneven skin surface, scarring, and acne-related issues. More importantly, fillers can give patients an aesthetic appearance around their nose, lips and hard-to-eliminate “smile lines.” If you’re tired of looking in the mirror and feeling disappointed, dermal fillers are the way to go.

Chemical Peels

Having a spa day and getting a nice facial can work wonders for your mental health. Regardless of your age, hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone can wreak havoc on your self-image and pride. Although many over-the-counter products make grandiose claims stating they can reduce these problematic areas, they rarely deliver.

With a traditional chemical peel given to you by a trained professional, your discolored patches, scars and hyperpigmentation marks will melt away. Each session removes the outermost layer of a patient’s skin (epidermis), revealing the soft, supple and healthy skin ready to show itself. After a few sessions, patients notice their entire appearance has changed for the better.

Microneedling

Part of being human involves having scars, stretch marks, and tiny imperfections. Even though most of us have learned to love the skin we’re in, it doesn’t mean we need to hang on to these skin-related issues for the rest of our lives.

Luckily for us, advancements in dermatology have made reducing the appearance of scars, discoloration, and stretch marks a reality. Microneedling utilizes tiny needles that are barely noticeable to the patient to eliminate their problematic areas. Each pass over the area triggers the patient’s natural healing response to reduce the appearance of scars and skin damage.

After a few treatments, the area rebuilds itself with healthy collagen and nutrients. While running the risk of sounding like a terrible cliche, microneedling is a skin-saving technology you have to try!

If you’re dealing with negative self-talk, anxiety, or low self-esteem originating from your physical appearance, it’s time to ask for a helping hand. Although you’re a brave and self-sufficient individual, sometimes it takes outside assistance to restore your inner power and regain a grip on your lifestyle.
