eMatrix Sublative Rejuvenation: Clear Skin for Everyone

Body Beautiful Spa is one of the first spas in Phoenix to offer the Sublative Rejuvenation treatment using the Syneron eMatrix system; an innovative, energy based technology that provides radiant, clear skin with no down time.

This treatment uses fractional bi-polar radio frequency to penetrate through the skin allowing more energy beneath the surface of the skin, in order to maximize collagen production, improving wrinkles, tone, texture, and minimizing the appearance of scars for all skin tones and all skin types. Sublative Rejuvenation is the "all-natural" approach to enhancing your youthfulness. Unlike other non-aggressive cosmetic treatments such as Botox, fillers, or chemical peels, Sublative Rejuvenation works from the inside out by stimulating cell regrowth. The results from Sublative Rejuvenation last longer and can be further enhanced with yearly maintenance treatments.

In typical Body Beautiful fashion we want you to look great without breaking the bank so until the end of July we are offering the eMatrix treatment for just $249 per treatment per area (face, neck, or decollate)! So hurry and schedule your consultation now!

Fountain of Youth

Spa originates from the Latin word spargere, meaning to pour forth, scatter or sprinkle. Native Americans, Persians, Babylonians, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all believed in the curative powers of mineral waters. Their bathing rituals or ceremonies performed in a particular spring, well, or rivers were thought to evoke physical and spiritual purification.

While modern day spas have significantly evolved since pre-historic times, at Body Beautiful Spa, we’ve always believed in “Salus Per Aquam,” Latin for “health through water.” It should be no surprise that we are drawn to water’s nurturing effervescence in our desire to bathe, swim, soak and heal. Every living cell in our body is made up of water and surrounded by water. Every one of our body's tissues and organs, as well as our body's daily sustaining process, such as thinking, nerve function, blood circulation, digestion, and elimination, requires water in order to function properly. Skin is intricately tied to the overall health of your body. When your body is properly hydrated, you'll look better and feel better.

Dehydration leads to so many unpleasantries in your body from dry skin to over worked kidneys possibly leading to kidney stones and even urinary tract infections. A great way to monitor you hydration is to look at your urine. If it isn’t clear, you’re not drinking enough water! Exercise is a compliment to water hydration. During exercise the body sweats and the water your rehydrate with penetrates deep through the skin, tissues and into the bloodstream. Here the water’s healing benefits are in action eliminating toxins and stress, leaving your body clean inside and out. Dehydrated skin can also lead to signs of premature aging eventually leading to wrinkles, and if it’s not treated properly, it has the potential of causing some health conditions internally as well as externally. Remember, 6-8 eight ounce glasses of water a day but for those who workout or spend a good amount of time outside need to increase that amount. Increased water output requires increased water input.

Here in Arizona the environmental effects of our dry heat can be very damaging to our skin. Proper skin care is essential. A quality anti-aging serum, a dehydration mask, as well as an enriching moisturizer in your skincare regimen, in addition to regular moisturizing facials and body wraps, can make all the difference.

Your Skin Care Secret Weapon!

One of skin care's best secret weapons is exfoliation. While many people know what exfoliation is on a basic level, or that it is something they “should” be doing, to many of them don't. Men often believe skin care treatments are for women only, and women often put it off as too time consuming to fit into their already too-busy schedule. This is too bad too since exfoliation can help lead them to having the smooth, clear, healthy skin they're looking for.

Your skin continuously undergoes a natural renewal process. When we are young, it takes approximately 25 – 28 days for our skin to completely renew itself. As we age, this renewal process slows down. The key to younger looking skin is to keep that renewal process in motion. This is where exfoliation comes in! Exfoliation oxygenates, brightens and refines the skin by revving up the skin’s metabolism, sloughing off excess dead skin, and ultimately helping to maintain cell turnover as you age.

Many people develop dull, lifeless looking skin because their stratum corneum (top-most layer consisting of dead cells) becomes too thick. Men and women should exfoliate once a week to remove the dead skin cells from the top layer of your skin. Accumulated dead skin cells make your face look bumpy, coarse, and even extremely dry. They also clog pores, trapping dirt and oils that become blackheads, pimples, and other facial blemishes.

Microdermabrasion

Exfoliation can be performed chemically or mechanically. Microdermabrasion, dermaplaning and salt scrubs are forms of mechanical exfoliation. Chemical peels, and quality home care products, such as Skin Scripts Glycolic and Retinol Pads with Kojic and Arbutin (available at Body Beautiful Spa in Phoenix) exfoliate chemically. Both chemical and mechanical exfoliation remove the top-most layer of skin, in order to remove all the fine hairs and dead skin cells and are excellent treatments for freshening and revitalizing skin.

Many don't think to do so, but did you know that you can and should exfoliate your scalp? It cleanses product build up away, relieves itchiness and flakes, and helps with dry skin. In order to exfoliate the scalp you can create a mixture of 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of conditioner, and 1 table spoon of olive oil. Mix that together then apply in sections to your wet scalp and massage well with your finger tips. Follow with shampoo and conditioner! Mmmm, didn't that feel good?
