Maximise Your Skin Health
The principal goal of the temple skincare is to restore skin health. Young healthy skin has a very high cell turnover. Progressive, cumulative exposure to damaging UVA/UVB rays of the sun causes a slowing of cell turnover, loss of skin elasticity, roughness, fine and deep lines, as well as blotchy, irregular brown pigment. Sun exposure, stress and hormonal fluctuations all affect skin adversely. Our goal is to help you manage these variables to maximize skin health.
Adherence to basic principles of skin care, taking into account the many variables, individual desires, and tolerances, allows the temple skincare to meet the needs of a wide spectrum of patients. Those principles include cleansing, moisturizing, protecting and rejuvenating the skin.
The key to skin rejuvenation is to stimulate exfoliation. Unhealthy, photodamaged skin is sluggish with poor cell turnover. Stimulating cell turnover physically with particle resurfacing, dermaplaning, or enzymes; or chemically with alpha hydroxy acids, and Retin-A, are synergistic in re-establishing skin health.

Beauty and a positive self image begin with a program of comprehensive health care and wellness. It is the responsibility of the individual as well as professionals involved in any area of beauty management to assure good general health before concentrating on aesthetics. Nutrition, regular exercise, vitamin supplements and holistic health principles are important concepts in maintaining general health as well as skin health. Healthy skin is beautiful skin.
Specific tissues or structures sometimes produce a visual form which is less than optimal and cannot be adequately improved by the methods above. Plastic surgical improvement in tissue form and structure is an important component of a comprehensive health and beauty management plan. Creation of a sculpture or work of art requires high quality raw material. Visualization and molding of the structure or form create a subtle yet striking finish giving it life and beauty. In living beauty, healthy skin is the raw material, plastic surgery the molding form, and hair design, cosmetics, and wardrobe the finish.
The truth about sun exposure...
Sun exposure is the number one cause of premature aging and skin cancer. The best way to prevent sun damage is to stay out of the sun.
Sunscreen should be worn everyday, not just when sunbathing. Hour for hour most people receive more sun damage going to work, walking outside, and sitting by the window than basking in the sun. It is best not to go in the sun between 10:00am and 3:00pm.
Sunscreen should be applied 30 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply sunscreen often if you are in direct sunlight. Although sunscreen applications are not cumulative (two applications of SPF-15 does not make an SPF-30), reapply protection to the areas that may have rinsed off due to sweating or water exposure.
An SPF 30 is the minimum protection you should be wearing in Australia. A broad spectrum physical block containing zinc oxide is the best.
Consider using a self-tanner instead of sun tanning. Remember that a “tan” produced by a self tanning product provides no additional resistance to sun burning!
THE SUN IS THE NUMBER ONE ENEMY OF THE SKIN!
