Best Ways To Grow Your Hair

Megan ThomasLeave a comment

Before we begin, it is normal to lose some hair – as much as about a hundred strands per day. But if you’ve noticed a thinning crown or a receding hairline, then the cause of hair loss could be something other than physiological. If you are panicking about your thinning hair, don’t. Here are the best ways to grow your mane to healthy volumes again.   1. HAIR GROWTH SUPPLEMENTS AND SERUMS Hair growth medicine are often the first used by doctors to combat hair loss. The hair recovery serum containing Minoxidil is applied to the scalp to stimulate hair growth by increasing the growing phase (anagen phase) of the hair cycle. Stress, poor nutrition and other factors can lead to breakage and premature shedding. Dietary hair supplements supply important nutrients to hair follicles to promote existing hair growth. Hair supplements such as Viviscal are considered one of the better hair supplements, sold exclusively in medical clinics. It works also by increasing anagen phase and results can be noticed in Continue Reading

You Can Have Perfect Lips Too, Thanks To Science

Apparently, science can determine how sexy your lips can look. Bee-stung pairs like those of Angelina Jolie and Scarlet Johannson are actually not all that subjective – because the world of cosmetic procedures currently has a metric for measuring lip beauty. And those who have always contemplated a lip filler job can rejoice, because this means that lip filler augmentation is no longer like the Wild West – there is actually a way of working out the best dimension for your lips that is considered ideal for your face.   ‘SUPERSIZE ME’ – VOLUME CAN BE PLANNED Believers of “size is not everything”, this will reaffirm your belief. Studies show that different ideals of lip beauty is not rooted in size, but in ratio. In fact, this was a concept born years ago when Leonardo Da Vinci postulated that the ability of the human brain to determine beauty is actually hardwired and tied to a mathematical proportion, now known as the Golden Ratio. This means that you can probably upsize Continue Reading

Is Your Face Aging Faster Than You?

The truth is, wrinkles will eventually appear and everyone will look older at some point. However, how well you cared for your skin from young can make a difference in wrinkle formation. Getting baggy or jowly around the jaw? Structural arrangements go on behind the scenes as we age. When we are young, fat in the face is more evenly distributed. The forehead, temples, cheeks, around the eye sockets and mouth are plump and youthful-looking. As we age, fat loss occurs and also shifts downwards. At the same time, skin loses its elasticity, sags and wrinkles develop, resulting in an overall volume deflation and loss of definition of the lower face. Even for someone with great genes, age-related changes in the face are unavoidable. If you’d rather have something done than embrace these changes, the surgical facelift is not the only treatment around to stem the tides of time. Non-invasive rejuvenation treatments are now the rave and they are popular because they are relatively inexpensive compared to surgical treatments and Continue Reading

Upgrade Your Facial Shape With These No-Knife Treatments

Megan ThomasLeave a comment

Ever wondered why some people never seem to age, or why some people look even younger than before? In case you were wondering, there is no magical treatment yet that reverses aging. Instead, more and more people are spending money to tighten their skin, so that their cheeks remain lifted and jawlines defined. Here’s are the top gravity defying skin treatments of 2019.   1. BEST SOUND SECRETS Sound is our new best friend, by this we mean high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). FDA-approved Ultherapy stimulates production of collagen deep within the skin with a productive healing response, restoring a sagging jawline back to a sharper, youthful V-shape. This completely non-invasive treatment targets a collagen-rich layer and results in a natural lifting and skin tightening effect that lasts for up to 12 months. For maintenance, another favourite of many, Sygmalift uses fractionated HIFU for a gradual skin tightening effect.   2. STRING IT WITH INFINITY V-LIFT Those with peeking jowls should consider the Infinity V-lift, a threadlift procedure that uses Continue Reading
