Breathe new life into your skin through the Oxy-Rejuvenating facial, available exclusively at Clarity Aesthetics Medical and Dental Center, the one-stop shop for aesthetic procedures. The Oxy-Rejuvenating Facial takes beauty treatments a notch higher by tapping the scientific benefits of oxygen through a relaxing and rejuvenating procedure that reduces fine lines, improves skin texture, and restores the skin’s youthful glow.

The treatment uses the unique OxyOasis system, which addresses specific skin concerns and delivers oxygen to the skin through a reviving spray of a pure oxygen complex (99 percent oxygen and catechins, which are potent antioxidants). The Oxy-Rejuvenating Facial uses a serum of active ingredients that is introduced to the oxygen stream, which allows for quick absorption by the skin’s lower epidermis.  This disburses the oxygen upon movement, increasing the oxygen flow in the skin, stimulating metabolism and allowing new cell formation.

The Oxy-Rejuvenating Facial replenishes the skin and improves elasticity dramatically. Its soothing properties make the Oxy-Rejuvenating Facial a perfect complement to Clarity’s other treatments like the IPL (Intense Pulse Light), IDP (Intense Diamond Peel), and LHR (Laser Hair Removal). “My Oxy-Rejuvenating facial experience just raised the bar for facial services in the market. My friends noticed the difference immediately. My skin feels softer and tighter”. said Gou De Jesus, a veteran writer who tried the service.

Sunburns are caused by exposure to too much ultraviolet (UV) light. UV radiation is a wavelength of sunlight in a range too short for the human eye to see. UV light is divided into three wavelength bands — ultraviolet A (UVA), ultraviolet B (UVB) and ultraviolet C (UVC). Only UVA and UVB rays reach the earth. Commercial tanning lamps and tanning beds also produce UV light that can cause sunburn.

Signs and Symptoms

• Pinkness or redness
• Skin that feels warm or hot to the touch
• Pain or tenderness
• Swelling
• Small fluid-filled blisters, which may break
• Headache, fever and fatigue if sunburn covers a large area

Signs and symptoms of sunburn usually appear within a few hours after sun exposure. But it may take a day or more to know the full extent and severity of sunburn.

Within a few days, your body starts to heal itself by “peeling” the top layer of damaged skin. After peeling, your skin may temporarily have an irregular color and pattern. Depending on the severity, it may take several days or more for the sunburn to heal.

When to see a doctor
See your doctor if the sunburn:

• Is blistering and covers a large portion of your body
• Is accompanied by a high fever, extreme pain, confusion, nausea or chills
• Doesn’t respond to at-home care within a few days
• Also, seek medical care if you notice signs or symptoms of an infection. These include:
  • Increasing pain and tenderness
  • Increasing swelling
  • Yellow drainage (pus) from an open blister
  • Red streaks, leading away from the open blister, which may extend in a line upward along the arm or leg

Risk factors

People with fair skin are more likely to sunburn than are people with dark skin. That’s because people with darker skin have more melanin, which offers some protection from sunburn but not from UV-induced skin damage. However, regardless of your skin type, the sun’s energy penetrates deeply into the skin and damages DNA of skin cells. This damage may ultimately lead to skin cancer, including melanoma.

Complications

Sunburn increases your risk of getting certain complications and skin diseases which include dry, wrinkled skin; liver spots and the following:

• Infection
• Photoaging
• Actinic keratoses
• Skin cancer
• Eye damage

Prevention

Use these methods to prevent sunburn:

• Avoid the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
• Cover up.
• Use sunscreen frequently and liberally.
• Wear sunglasses when outdoors.

Lifestyle and home remedies

Here are some tips that may reduce your pain and discomfort in the hours and days following sunburn:

• Take anti-inflammatory medication
• Apply cold compresses — such as a towel dampened with cool tap water — to the affected skin. Or take a cool bath or shower.
• Apply a moisturizing cream, Aloe Vera lotion or hydrocortisone cream to affected skin.
• If blisters form, don’t break them.
• Drink plenty of fluids.
• Treat peeling skin gently.

Hair Free, Pain Free!

Clarity’s Laser Hair Removal was recently featured on Ok! Magazine’s as its Treatment of the Month. Here’s what’s written in the write-up:

“>>What: Diode laser hair removal, P11,000 for both legs.

>>The Verdict: We were nervous about trying this treatment out because we’ve heard that it’s painful. But after we found out that the center’s standard practice is to have board-certifies dermatologists personally administer the treatment, we were relieved and ready! Before Dr. Haidee Bermudez started the treatment, ice-cold aloe gel was applied to our legs. While we’re able to feel pulses from the machine, it wasn’t painful at all. We were told that we should be able to see significant hair reduction after a few sessions, but we’re already seeing results agter just one go!

>>Where: Clairty aesthetic Medical & Dental Center, 5th Floor, Shangri-La Plaza Mall, EDSA corner Shaw Boulevard,  Mandaluyong City. Call (02) 910-4955 to 64 or visit www.clarity.com.ph for more details.”
