The Skin Care Clinic's special formulation of SNY-AKE (RF) is a syntyhetic tripeptide derivative that targets the neuromuscular activity, which has excellent benefits in smoothing and assisting in the extenton of Botox and other anti-wrinkle properties.

SYN-AKE is a small perptide that mimics the activity of WAGHLERIN 1, a poly-peptide that is found in the venom of the Temple Viper, Troppidolaemus wagleri.  Clinical trials have shown that SYN-AKE is capable of reducing mimic wrinkles by inhibiting muscle contractions.  To get a real Age Killing Effect, try SYN-AKE, which acts as a post-synaptic membrane, our formulation is a reversable antagolist of the muscular receptor, thus inhibits movement.

The tri-peptides are a binding element to the subunit which prevents binding of the connecting receptor - thus it remains closed, which helps the muscle stays relaxed.

SIGNIFICANT DECREASE OF EXPRESSION OF LINES ON FOREHEAD WHEN USED IN CONJUCTION WITH BOTOX:

The Skin Care Clinic's speciific formulation of SYN-AKE(RF) produced at least a 10% extention rate; and in conjunction with the healping properties of copper peptides and healing compounds, 94% of all studies reported that they found thier Botox results lasted longer than when not using the product.

 

Top 3 Gimmicks Used By Miracle Acne Treatments

 

  Modern medicine has brought us such miracles as an aids vaccine, and the telescopic eye, yet, it seems like scientists have overlooked the small potatoes, like acne treatments. Acne is something we have all had to deal with, and something we all equally dislike. It has ruined numerous dates and countless photographs. For some, acne has even left deep scarring and tissue damage due to cysts. The lack of effective acne treatments on the market today, and the lack of consumer knowledge has left a void that scam artists have filled with great marketing and cheap, ineffective products.

 

Gimmick #1: The 3-day Natural Cure.

  Most acne products base their advertising on the feeling of helplessness. They know that most people who are willing to try their acne treatments, have tried others in the past with, odds are, less then stellar results. The 3-day natural cure e-book's technique involves eating apples, and drinking plenty of water. That's it, just apples and water. I'm sure you can imagine how upsetting it must have been for those that actually bought the e-book.

Gimmick #2: Exaggerated Success Rate

   Accutane, one of the most prescribed acne medications dominated the market for years. Thousands of people with acne subscribed to the idea, and promise that Accutane will clear their breakouts while providing effective, long-term acne prevention. Shockingly enough, the rate of success for Accutane is only 50%. Wait, 50%?!?! That's almost as effective as those magnetic bracelets that they sell on late-night infomercials.

  To add insult to injury, Accutane also has horrible side-effects including: weak skin, Alopecia, depression, suicidal tendencies, birth defects, miscarriages, back pain, joint pain, dry mucus membranes, pink eye, dryness of the eye, vision problems, ringing in the ear, psychosis, and many many more. In fact, there have been hundreds of lawsuits against the maker of accutane because of these dangerous side-effects.

 

 

 

 

Gimmick #3: Patented Ingredients:

  The FDA requires all manufacturers to disclose, on the product label, the contents or ingredients of the product. One way to work around ingredient disclosure is the ever-popular “patented ingredient”. An acne treatment company will often time patent an ingredient to sell something that isn't really what they say it is. This is strictly a shady sales technique, and patented ingredients should be avoided at all costs.

 

 

  The Bottom line is that however you decide to treat your acne, keep common sense in mind. Med Spas and commercials that offer miracles are often times just trying to take your money without any regard for your own health or well-being. Acne treatments should be taken seriously, and if you want results, you should make sure you see a medical professional. If you're in the Los Angeles or Orange County area, and would like to start your journey towards clear, acne-free skin, call The Skin Care Clinic in Newport Beach.

The Origin of Acne (and How to Correct it!)

  Acne has, at one point or another, effected all of our lives.  Whether it be right before a school photo, the day before your big date, or, for some their entire lives.  The truth is, acne is a common enemy, and experiencing it is something we can all relate to.

There are various factors that cause acne to propagate, the most common is Hormones.  The hormone androgen, to be exact.  Androgen is generally responsible for over-activity in the sebaceous gland which results in the oily, shiny skin we all want to avoid.  Women and teenage boys tend to be the most susceptible to over-active sebaceous glands for obvious reasons.

Stress also plays a large role in the frequency and severity of acne.  After a long week of deadlines and meetings, it’s easy to understand how your body’s natural rhythm could be thrown off, and pimples could be given the opportunity to form.  This natural rhythm can also be affected by things other than stress:  Diet,while not proven to be a direct cause of acne, can really wreak havoc on your skin’s balance.  Try to keep greasy, fatty meals to a minimum; because while diet may not affect your skin directly, the residual oils and fats on your hands and lips that are left behind have a nasty tendency to clog your pores just as easily.

Food is not the only external factor that can cause acne: improper clothing can in some cases,cause acne, as well as make existing acne worse.  Tight fitting hats that don’t allow the forehead to breathe, and tight fitting shirts and pants that constrict your skin can all lead to breakouts.  Like the rest of your body, your skin needs to oxygen to thrive.  Cut off that oxygen and you will literally suffocate your skin.  This suffocation will cause your dead skin cells to mix with your skin’s natural oils and effectively plug a pore.  This plugged pore will then become infected by any bacteria that collects in it, and the result will be a perfectly formed pimple that’s ready to turn your saturday night into a saturday nightmare.

When most people get a pimple like the one alluded to above, the first thing they say to themselves are the two words that make acne worse all around the world: “pop it!”.  This is the #1 no-no on the list!  Being rough on your skin (i.e. picking, popping, squeezing, scrubbing) is the fastest way to make your acne worse.  If you do have to “pop” just make sure it has come to a head, and use a surgical needle so that you don’t agitate the skin surrounding it, reducing the chances of a red blemish forming.  One good rule of thumb is to simply be conscious of where your hands are, and making sure that they’re not anywhere near your face.

No matter how hard some people try though, they simply cannot rid themselves of pimples.  They can thank their ancestors for that.  For most people that have chronic acne, it can be traced back to their genes, and can only be treated medically.  There are many dermatology centers that offer acne treatments and acne solutions but most are simply med spas that don’t focus on the root causes of acne; they just give you a cleanser and a moisturizer, maybe give you a facial, then get you out the door.  The key is to find a facility that has medical professionals on staff. 

The Skin Care Clinic of Orange County, located in Newport Beach is one such office.  They specialize in non-invasive acne treatments, as well as many other dermatological procedures.  Skin care is their utmost priority and if you do suffer from acne, and live in the Los Angeles/ Orange County area, I would suggest giving them a call today to see how they can make your life a heck of a lot easier.

Summer Cellulite

Summer is right around the corner and for most women that means it's time to break out the beach-wear. Unfortunately, it also means that for most women it's time to start getting creative when it comes to dealing with their cellulite.

Being obese does not make you more likely have cellulite and being slender doesn't make you less likely to have it, because it's not normal body fat. Cellulite is the superficial layer of fat that sits just under the surface of the skin. The Connective tissue that holds the fat has usually been weakened and that results in dimpling. Cellulite is not only a problem for about 95% of women but also effects men. The reason cellulite tends to be less visible on the male body is because the connective tissue that holds the fat is much more resilient and doesn't easily sag. The constant truth for both sexes is that because the fat is superficial, it can be almost impossible to treat with diet and exercise alone.

There are herbal creams and ointments on the market today that promise to make your cellulite disappear, and to make you cottage-cheese-free. However, there has been no evidence that shows any kind of efficacy. Creams and ointments are unable to penetrate deep enough into the skin to get to the fa, which essentially renders them useless.

Also marketed to fight cellulite is subcision, which attempts to target and treat cellulite by snipping the connective tissue that holds it in place. Again there is little evidence of efficacy and there are concerns that it might worsen the condition because it could result in saggy skin and thus more cellulite.

Only one technique has ever shown real signs of being effective, VelaShape, which combines both Endermologie to smooth dimples as well as radiofrequency technology to help break up the fat and connective tissue beneath the surface of the skin. The VelaShape System has been around for quite a few years and is the only FDA-approved procedure on market that has been proven to shrink thigh circumference, as well as minimize the overall appearance of cellulite dimpling. As with most treatments, it does require you to have multiple sessions (10 on average), but most patients start to see real results within the first 4-5 visits.

The Skin Care Clinic in Newport Beach has been administering this procedure for years and our highly qualified staff have had hours upon hours of real-world experience. It is our goal to help you achieve the body you want by summer and we will design a comprehensive personalized plan to help you actualize your goals. Call us today to schedule a free consultation and say farewell to cellulite before summer's in full-swing.

Botox Lifts Your Brows, and Your Spirits Too!

A recently conducted study has cast botox into the category of "possible anti-depressant".

Botox®, normally used to relax fine lines and to diminish the appearance of wrinkles, has been found to make people happier. The theory is that because the active neuroxin in the botox disables the use of certain muscles, it can actually reduce the amount of emotional expression. The loss of the ability to frown for instance, has been found to limit the human brain's ability to feel deep helpless sadness.

While this is still in the "theory" phase of research, there has been documented evidence that shows it could be more of a reality than one might think.

The broader point is that Botox® could offer a cheaper alternative to more traditional anti-depressants which can cost up to $2,000 a year per medication. While Botox® only administered a handful of times per year could cut that cost in the half and make you look younger.
