Why Wait to be Pampered?

Looking your best is not always an easy process. Trying to maintain all of your best features yourself can sometimes be a hassle that doesn’t quite seem worth doing. This doesn’t mean, however, that you want to let certain aspects of your appearance fall by the way side. Taking a special trip to a skin care spa can be a great way to drastically increase your sex appeal without being stressed out every morning in front of the mirror.  There are a few affordable and quick treatments that you can get to help your appearance without breaking the bank.
-Brow, Lip or Chin waxing or threading can cost less than $20 and can make your face look more vibrant and cleaner.
-Body Bronzing can provide a nice healthy looking tan without having to expose your skin to the harmful rays of the sun. You can concentrate only on specific sections to reduce costs.
-Brazilian waxes may sound like they are expensive, but unless you are going all the way they can be very affordable.
-A full stip lash, bedazzle/feather lashes and lash tints are all $20 or less and they can make your eyes look beautiful and striking.
And remember, new customers to Brazilia Skin Care in Del Mar and La Jolla get a $10 off coupon, making these great skin and hair treatments even more affordable than ever.

What is Derma Planing?

Derma planning is a type of skin treatment that is receiving increased popularity because of its effectiveness. Derma planing removes the outer most layers of dead skin cells, leaving the skin immediately smooth, supple and vibrant. Derma planing is safely performed by using a blade (a sterile surgical blade).  This blade is held against the skin at an angle of 45 degrees and stroked along the surface, just like shaving.  However, the practitioner is doing the stroking while holding the area of skin taut.
Derma planing is a safe procedure as long as it is done by a professional who has adequate training. The process is as safe as a man shaving his face before work in the morning. There is a slight risk of bleeding as with all forms of shaving, but damage to the skin doesn’t consist of anything more than slight nics. And of course, this procedure should only be done by a professional who has been trained to blade without causing any harm.
Many people believe that hair grows in thicker after it has been shaved, but this is just a myth. It is physiologically impossible for hair to grow back thicker after being cut. The reason that hair feels thicker is that the tip of the hair changes texture when cut. This does not mean that the physical structure of the hair has changed, just a surface characteristic. Waxing often produces the opposite result because of the hair being pulled from the root.
