Stress-Busting Treatments for Better Skin

Feeling tense and stretched thin comes and goes for many busy people. Between family, friends, and social activities, it is easy to get wrapped up in the bustle and forget to prioritize relieving stress. Studies show that chronic stress increases cortisol levels, which damages skin’s ability to hold on to water and causes dryness, fine lines, and other undesirable skin conditions. While adequate sleep, consistent exercise, and meditation can all aid in relieving stress, Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center offers massages, facials, and stress-reducing products to ease tension and promote relaxation.

 
As many people would agree, when we feel confident about the way we look, we generally feel better. Unsightly razor bumps and ingrown hairs can prevent anyone from wanting to show skin. We offer laser hair removal for any part of the body as an effective treatment for removing unwanted hair and eliminating the stress of shaving, along with the stress it places on the skin. In addition to never seeing another cut, nick, or bump in the area of hair removal, laser hair removal can “shave” hours off of your beautifying routine.

 
Massage therapy is a customary way to ease bodily tension and anxiety. At Laser Lights, we offer Swedish, deep tissue, and Myofascial release massage types. Most regular massage patients report an increase in overall wellness and reduction in the frequency and/or severity of depression, stress, sore muscles, nerve pain, and headaches. After asking patients a series of questions to determine any sources of underlying muscular pain or stress, your chosen Laser Lights licensed massage therapist will begin treatment by using the provided information to suggest an appropriate massage type that suits your procedure goals.

 
Contrary to common belief, facials are not solely luxury treatments. Rather, they can help restore confidence and glowing skin while addressing problem areas of the face. Our staff of licensed estheticians performs an array of medicated and therapeutic facials. These customizable facials treat skin conditions such as acne, dry skin, and wrinkles. We also have dedicated facials for anti-aging, back and facial acne, men, and teens. Additionally, we offer one hour, relaxing European facials to remove dead skin, calm inflamed pores, and reduce redness associated with rosacea, allergies, or acne.

 
For at-home stress relief, we recommend Laser Lights’ Sage and Citrus moisturizer for a moisture boost with the added benefit of aromatherapy. The specially formulated crème contains anti-oxidants and vitamins A, C, and E to condition, tone, protect, and improve skin elasticity. For many patients, the efforts we make to reduce stress also reduce the signs of skin aging.
