Sunlight injures the skin, particularly the epidermis. The cumulative effects of sun exposure are wrinkling, blotchy pigmentation and roughness. Sun damaged skin also becomes less flexible and more easily bruised. Finally, sun damage is the major cause of skin cancer.

SUN TIPS YOU CAN COUNT ON

  • To protect your skin always use a sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 30 or greater (Epione’s Full Spectrum Sun Protection is SPF 30).
  • If you burn easily, freckle or have light hair and eyes, use a sunscreen with a higher SPF factor and reapply every hour if perspiring or swimming.
  • Your tan won’t protect you from burning! Even if you already have a tan, use sunscreen to keep your skin even-toned, young-looking and safe.
  • Don’t be fooled by cloudy skies - you should still apply sunscreen if you’re outside. The sun can damage your skin even if it’s not sunny out.
  • For the best results, apply your sunscreen 20 minutes before going outside.
  • If possible, avoid being out in the sun between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Follow the “Shadow Rule” – if your shadow is shorter than you are, the sun’s damaging rays are at their strongest and you are most likely to sunburn.
  • When you’re out in the sun, especially midday, wear light, protective clothing: wide-brimmed hats, jeans or pants and long-sleeved tops.
  • Remember: It’s never too late to help your skin stay healthy. No matter how many times you’ve been sunburned or tanned before, you can start fighting blotches, wrinkles and skin cancer by using a sunscreen now.

1. Avoid standing in one place for a long period of time.
2. Exercise regularly. Walking is good for the legs because it increases circulation.
3. Raise your legs up 6 to 12 inches above your heart when you are lying down.
4. Maintain ideal body weight.
5. Keep your legs uncrossed when sitting.
6. Avoid high heels.

If you already have varicose veins we can help!

At Epione we offer two procedures to treat varicose veins. Large to mid-size veins can be treated with sclerotherapy injections. Laser Vein Removal is used to treat small to mid-size veins.

Sclerotherapy is the injection of a medicine into the vessels, which makes them shrink.The principle of Laser Vein Removal is the following: laser penetrates the skin to raise the temperature of the blood vessel and safely coagulate it. The sensation is typically described as feeling like a rubber band hitting against your skin and treatment usually lasts a few minutes. Over time the vessel fades and slowly disappears.

We have come a long way since the old-fashioned facelift. Over the last several years, a great deal of natural-looking injectable fillers have hit the public market. Unfortunately, while these fillers are smooth, the results of these fillers tend to fade quicker than desired by most patients. Furthermore, we have exciting news: two new products have arrived in the office and they promise natural-looking results that last longer than ever before! (more…)

What is the difference between Botox Cosmetic and fillers?

Frown lines are caused by overactive facial muscles. Fillers correct the wrinkle by adding volume around the muscle with intradermal injections. Botox Cosmetic is intramuscular, blocking the chemicals that cause facial muscles to contract, thereby relaxing them. While there are many options available for fillers, Botox Cosmetic is the only product of its kind that affects the muscles that cause wrinkles between the brows, the forehead and the lines at the side of the eyes called crow’s feet.
