As we celebrate Memorial Day, we remember the brave men and women who have sacrificed their lives in service to our country. We are grateful for their sacrifice and dedication, and we honor their memory.

At our dermatology practice, we understand the importance of sun protection. Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the leading cause of skin cancer. Military personnel are at an increased risk for skin cancer, due to their frequent exposure to UV radiation while deployed.

We encourage all military personnel to take steps to protect their skin from the sun and schedule regular skin checks with a dermatology professional.

We are proud to serve the military community, and we are committed to their skin health journey.

Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸

Happy Mother's Day to all of the incredible mothers in our lives. We appreciate all that you do to keep your families healthy and happy.

2023 Journey to Healthy Skin Challenge - Day 29

In addition to sunscreen, clothing is vital to protect your skin from sun damage and skin cancer. It absorbs or blocks harmful UV radiation, but unlike sunscreen, you never need to reapply!

Not all clothing is made equally. When choosing sun-protective clothing, be sure to check for the following:

🔹 Dark or bright colors
🔹 Well-constructed
🔹 Loose-fitting
🔹 Good coverage
🔹 Most Important: Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) of at least 30, which indicates how much UVB and UVA radiation a fabric allows to reach your skin

For today’s challenge, choose functional fashion and try UPF clothing.

This is your mid-day reminder that your mental health matters! Stress directly impacts the health of your skin. When you experience stress, your body reacts by elevating cortisol levels and hormones, which can induce an inflammatory response in your skin and body. The skin is constantly exposed to environmental stressors and can also produce hormones in response to them. In short, stress causes skin issues, and skin issues cause stress! This cycle is challenging to stop, but it is possible.

For today's challenge, pause to become aware of what is causing stress in your life and make a plan to reduce that stress.

Some ways to care for your mental health include relaxation techniques, professional therapy, journaling, practicing mindfulness, healthy eating, hydration, exercise, decluttering your environment and schedule, and more.

Observe how reducing stress can impact the health and appearance of your skin. What is your favorite way to care for your mental health? Comment below!

Laser hair reduction could be the perfect solution if you're tired of shaving, waxing, or tweezing away unwanted hair. With this method, hair stays gone for months or even years. If any does grow back, the texture is fine and less visible. Did you know that you can save time, money and the environment by switching to laser hair reduction?

🔹The average woman shaves over 7,700 times throughout her life. The average man shaves 20,000 times in his life! Meanwhile, it only takes an average of 6-10 laser appointments (with occasional maintenance), each lasting just 30-60 minutes, for laser treatments to work.

🔹While the upfront cost of laser treatments is more expensive than purchasing a razor or professional waxing appointment, over time, the cost of laser hair reduction is less costly than a lifetime of shaving and waxing.

🔹 Shaving requires the use of new blades every few shaves. This adds up to hundreds or more disposable shavers or blade cartridges in the landfill yearly. A laser generates few waste products, helping the earth in the long run.

It's time to ditch the razor. For today's challenge, schedule your laser hair consultation.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that can be applied to the skin to treat and prevent changes associated with photoaging, the premature aging of the skin due to sun and UV exposure. It can also be used to treat hyperpigmentation by brightening the skin, evening complexion, and boosting collagen. Despite its impressive benefits, it is often the missing key to an effective skincare routine.

For today’s challenge, discover new products and add a vitamin C serum to your skincare regimen.

Not all Vitamin C serums are the same quality. Be sure to look for products containing at least 10% L-ascorbic acid, the most active and purest form of vitamin C. It should also be stored in a dark, tightly sealed bottle to prevent oxidation. Have you tried Vitamin C serum? Comment below!

2023 Journey to Healthy Skin Challenge - Day 25

Everyone loves a spa day! Allowing a licensed nail technician to give a manicure and pedicure is a great way to keep your nails healthy, but you have to be smart and safe.

🔹 Request sterilized, sealed instruments (if not already provided)
🔹 Opt for regular polish
🔹 Wear sunscreen or UV gloves for manicures and pedicures that requiring UV curing, such as gel polish

For today’s challenge, think smarter about professional manicures and pedicures. Consider using the tips above to ensure a healthy nail experience.

For today's challenge, consider applying a tinted moisturizer, tanning lotion, or schedule a professional spray tan.

You can have a sun-kissed glow and keep your skin safe from melanoma!

2023 Journey to Healthy Skin Challenge - Day 22

Dermatologists recommend applying sunscreen every day and reapplying approximately every 2 hours. This includes days spent primarily indoors, during the winter season, and when it is cloudy. You should apply sunscreen even more frequently when swimming or sweating, especially in direct sun.

For today's challenge, set a timer for every two hours. Begin to create a habit of reapplying your sunscreen throughout the day.

If you applied your sunscreen this morning, it's about time to reapply. Remember, consistency is the key to healthy skin!

2023 Journey to Healthy Skin Challenge - Day 21

Healthy skin starts from within. The foods you eat can provide excellent benefits to your skin. Some examples of foods packed with nutritious value for your skin and body are:

🔹Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish, chia seeds, and walnuts help decrease inflammation and preserve collagen
🔹Vitamin C, found in citrus fruits, broccoli and and strawberries provide antioxidants and fight wrinkles.
🔹Vitamin E, found in almonds and sunflower seeds can help prevent cell damage.

For today's challenge, cook a well-balanced, nutritious meal.

2023 Journey to Healthy Skin Challenge - Day 20

Did you know that the average person touches their face between 15 and 25 times per HOUR? 😱 One of the most common unconscious habits could be keeping you from having healthy skin. Touching your skin throughout the day transfers oil, dirt and bacteria to your face leading to clogged pores and breakouts. Even worse, picking at acne or inflamed skin can lead to irritation and scarring. This information alone should make someone stop cold turkey, but given how frequently a person touches their face every hour, it is difficult to curb this habit.

For today's challenge, pay close attention to how often you touch your face. Consider keeping a tally throughout the day and progressively decrease the frequency over time. If needed, try replacing the habit with an alternative action or keeping your hands busy. If you must touch your face, be sure it is only for cleansing, applying products and always with washed hands.

Remember, for glowing skin, don't touch your face!

2023 Journey to Healthy Skin Challenge - Day 19

Your skin is the body's first line of defense, so it must remain healthy and hydrated daily.

For today's challenge, protect your skin barrier and apply moisturizer.

Be sure to moisturize your face and body to protect your skin from head to toe.

2023 Journey to Healthy Skin Challenge - Day 18

There is nothing like a trip to the hair salon or barber to help you look and feel your best. In addition to maintaining healthy hair, did you know that a regular trim could possibly save your life? Hair stylists and barbers are uniquely positioned to notice changes on the scalp and see spots that are difficult to find during your at-home skin checks.

For today's challenge, for healthier hair (and skin!), schedule your next trim.

Do not be afraid to ask your hairdresser to look at your scalp and tell you if you have any unusual spots. If you do, have them checked out promptly by a dermatology professional.
