Are you searching to find the best food for skin health? Healthy skin is promoted by the use of skin care products, but the internal aspect of skin care is often ignored. The best skin care regimen involves paying attention to both the external and internal needs of the skin. Some foods provide the extra nutrients required to boost your skin’s health and give you that great complexion you always wanted. Brazil Nuts help improve the elasticity of skin, help to battle skin infections, and are thought to help individuals with acne. They contain zinc, which helps with skin inflammation problems, skin cell growth, maintenance of collagen, and dry skin related problems such as eczema and psoriasis. Carrots are a high source of beta-carotene and vitamin C. This rids free radicals and aids in skin collagen formation. Vitamin A aids in the development of skin cells and the maintenance of proper skin cell health. Berries such as blueberries, blackcurrants, blackberries, raspberries, cranberries, and strawberries are a good food for skin. Generally, berries help the body manufacture collagen. Berries (especially blueberries) are loaded with antioxidant compounds that are very effective in neutralizing damaging free radicals. Pomegranate Juice contains anthocyanins that act to strengthen the walls of the tiny blood vessels that supply nutrients to the skin. Therefore, it drinking pomegranate juice can help stop the formation of spider veins.

If you have never had a chemical peel before you might think of Samantha from Sex and the City, who tried a deep chemical peel and was bright red as an end result. If the idea of a chemical peel seems a little scary to you, you are not alone. Fortunately now we are able to determine the depth of the chemical peel according to skin condition, skin type and the patient’s wishes. There are many chemical peels today that only cause slight peeling, if any at all, but you are still able to obtain the same results.
Chemical peels shed dead skin and promote the production of new skin cells resulting in fresh new skin. There are many types of chemical peels some include glycolic, lactic, and salicylic or peels mixed with retinoic acid. Each of these acids address different skin issues that include acne, hyper pigmentation, rosacea, sun damaged skin, acne scarring, aging skin or a dull complexion. No matter what chemical peel is used the end result will always be lighter, brighter skin with improved texture and even tone. In order to obtain optimal results it is always recommended that you do a series of treatments. Remember chemical peels are not only for your face, but also back, hands, shoulders and chest. At Breyer Medspa we offer a wide variety of chemical peels, medical grade skin care products, as well as frequent consultations to help you through every step of the process. Check out our amazing skincare discounts for the month of March.
