April is National Rosacea Awareness Month

Rosacea is a common skin disorder that causes chronic inflammation to the cheeks, nose, forehead, eyelids, and chin. It is most common in patients with fair skin and can be associated with skin disorders such as acne and seborrhea. Fortunately, Rosacea is controllable, but unfortunately, not curable. Flare-ups vary for each individual so it is best to identify and avoid possible triggers. The most common irritants to Rosacea are stress, alcohol, smoking, and long periods in hot, sunny weather.
The actual cause of Rosacea is unknown. Treatment varies based on the degree of infection of the skin, usually involving long term antibiotic therapy. To decrease flare-ups it is best to avoid excessive alcohol intake and smoking, always apply a daily SPF, use products made specifically for sensitive skin types, and maintain a stress free environment. If you are unaware of your triggers you can keep a journal, which will allow you to identify lifestyle and environmental factors that affect your condition.

The Ins and Outs of Chemical Peels


The Rhonda Allison"Apple Wine Peel". 
Apple Wine Peel has little or no down time. This is considered a "progressive" peel with regenerative qualities with Vitamin A and lactic acid for a smooth, clear, hydrated "lift'. $99 (reg $125)

What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a technique which involves the application of a variety of chemical solutions to remove the damaged outer layers of dead skin cells from the skin’s surface. It is extremely beneficial for many skin conditions such as hyperpigmentation, rosacea, acne, sun damage, and photo aging. By removing the build-up of dead skin cells and stimulating the regenerative process, you will notice marked improvements in the formation of wrinkles and fine lines, texture and tone of the skin, hydration, reduced pore size, clearing of blemishes and more balanced oil production and an overall healthier skin appearance.

What are the different types of peels?

Most of the peels we deal with at Metamorphosis are considered superficial; they do not penetrate beyond the epidermis or papillary dermis. They are not to be confused with medical or physician-strength peels that affect the reticular dermis. I have received many questions from my clients on "what is a peel" ? Here is a description if you want to know more.

PROGRESSIVE

This refers to a treatment that does not usually cause immediate exfoliation and only removes the outer layer of skin or the stratum corneum. As treatments are repeated, the skin will experience a mild sloughing.

MID-DEPTH

These peels affect the intra-epidermal layer, and exfoliation occurs within two to three days after application. The skin goes through very little down time. Peeling consists of light flaking similar to a sunburn peel.

DEEP

These peels affect the deepest intra-epidermal layers. The skin becomes brown and crusty then undergoes considerable peeling, which occurs three to four days after application. The skin peels in large segments as opposed to flaking. The entire process takes about seven to ten days.
