For a long time you have been fascinated with hair; you have studied it, trained in cutting it and spends several years styling and coloring it for others. However, standing on your feet all day trying to turn your scissors into a magic wand is not an easy task. If you decide however, to add electrolysis to your repertoire then you will actually have a magic wand.
There are certain periods of our lives we rather forget. And acne is one of them. It can be an embarrassing phase which affects not only our skin but also affect our self confidence.
Acne is a common non-contagious skin condition relating to blocked skin pores that results in skin lesions. It affects most of us at sometime during our lifetime, more commonly during our teenage years. It can be grouped broadly into two main categories: 1) Non-inflammatory acne: Here acne lesions appear as whiteheads (closed comedones) or blackheads (open comedones). When bacteria and sebum are trapped in the pores below the skins surface, they appear as white spots and are known as ‘whiteheads’. When the pore opens up to the surface of the skin and the contents gets oxidized and turns black, the lesions are then known as ‘blackheads’. 2) Inflammatory acne: Here the acne lesions are inflamed and may appear as papules, pustules, cysts, nodules. With nodules being the most severe.
Acrylates/C10-30, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer – A film forming agent that produces excellent water binding properties. Used as a moisturizing agent.
Avobenzone (2%) – Used in sunscreen and sun block products. Doubles or triples their UVA protection. Avobenzone and Zinc Oxide are the only 2 sunscreens approved for broad spectrum protection.
The term electrolysis redox refers to the chemical reactions that occur when electrons are exchanged. Electrolysis redox involves matching an electron accepted via reduction with one that is donated via oxidation. There are many different types of electrolysis redox reactions. One such reaction is a synthesis reaction involving an exchange of electrons that results in the creation of an ionic bond.
Acne sufferers face more than one concern. There is of course the constant nuisance of the acne itself. There is also the anxiety caused by the acne scars and lesions which will render the skin an aesthetic disaster. The reason for this is that most people believe that acne is a temporary situation whereas you are stuck with acne scars for the rest of your life.
