15% Off Clarisonic Brushes in Chico!!!

916SKIN - Acne, Skin & Wellness Studio is offering 15% off Clarisonic Skin Care Brushes when you mention this blog. The Clarisonic in Chico, California is your ticket to smooth, radiant skin - no kidding! I woke up the other morning, my skin was feeling super grainy. As I glided my hand across my face, I could actually feel the oil plugs at the surface. That's one of the factors that can cause skin to feel rough and bumpy. Then, I whipped out my Clarisonic, which oscillates at 300 times per second, and cleansed my face. It gives me a real deep cleanse, but is extremely gentle on my sensitized skin. Afterwards, my skin felt really smooth and I looked "glowy" because it stimulates circulation. The Clarisonic also removes twice as much oil. Removing excess oil is important for product penetration. By using the Clarisonic Brush, you get the very most out of your other products! It is pricey at $195, but well worth it!!!

Does the Clarisonic Brush Improve Acne?

916SKIN - Acne, Skin & Wellness Studio offers the Clarisonic Brush in Chico, California.

The Clarisonic Skin Care brush has a soft bristled head the size of a silver dollar that oscillates at 300 times per second. The Clarisonic in Chico, removes 2 times as much oil, 6 times as much makeup, and enhances product absorption by 61%. These brushes are pricey at $195 a pop, but well worth it! If you have non-inflamed acne, the Clarisonic will be your best friend! I recommend that my inflamed acne patients wait until all inflammation has subsided before using the Clarisonic. Although their are a selection of brush heads that range from normal to delicate, even the softest of bristles can further irritate inflamed acne. First, get rid of the inflammation. Then, get yourself a Clarisonic!

Natural DHT Inhibitors!!!

For those experiencing Androgenic Acne, nutritional supplements in Chico, California are available at 916Skin.

An increase in Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) leads to heightened oil production and sebum that is thick and sticky making it more likely to cause an impaction. Before you start popping random supplements, I recommend seeing a hormone specialist to determine if you have an imbalance, and if so, what type of imbalance you have. While self diagnosing is tempting, and we all do it, you could potentially make your acne worse if you begin taking the wrong supplements. There are several natural DHT inhibitors for those with a known imbalance.

DHT inhibitors include: Zinc, Saw Palmetto Extract, B5, B6, Gamma Linoleic Acid, Nettles, and Isoflavones.

Another Reason Not To Pick!!!

For those looking to treat acne scars in Sacramento and Chico area visit 916 Acne, Skin & Wellness Studio.

Even the mildest form of acne can cause scarring if you pick. Remember, inflammation leads to Post Inflamatory Hyperpigmentation scarring (PIH). This means that even someone that has noninflamed acne can have PIH. How so? Picking at the non-inflamed lesion, whether it be a blackhead or a whitehead, causes irritation and inflamation, which can lead to PIH. The best way to avoid this type of scarring is...do not pick. If you do have inflammed lesions, apply ice for 60 seconds 2 to 3 times each day to reduce the chances of PIH.

Why You Shouldn't Pick!

916 is an acne clinic in Northern California. We treat grades 1 through 4, and have had huge success in getting our patients clear.

Picking can cause breaks in the follicle (pore) wall. If you have a pimple or a cyst, it is almost certain that you will cause a break in the follicle wall if you pick. This is BAD! Bacteria from inside the follicle get released into the otherwise sterile environment of the dermis (deeper skin layer). White blood cells begin breaking down collagen and elastin in order to get to the site of infection, and gobble up the bacteria. It is the breaking down of collagen and elastin (proteins that keep your skin looking young, tight, and smooth) that causes pit scarring. So, with that said, LEAVE IT ALONE! You are doing far more harm than good.
