According to the Cambridge English Dictionary, the definition of anti-ageing is the use of substances that are intended to prevent or limit the process of becoming old. Collins English Dictionary defines anti-ageing as any product or procedure that claims to reverse or slow down the effects of ageing. Is there such a product or treatment,
Collagen is found abundantly in the deeper layer of our skin (dermis). Its function is to keep the skin plump, fresh, elastic and smooth. As we age, the production of collagen decreases, which results in the appearance of wrinkles, sagging skin, thinning skin. Some wonder if taking collagen supplements will reduce the signs of aging,

Facials are a soothing, pampering way of maintaining glowing, healthy skin at every age, and are very much part of an ideal beauty routine. A combination of vitamins and antioxidants will help hydrate, smooth and even out your complexion, as well as boost its radiance.
How many of us think … if only something natural exists to keep us young-looking? “I don’t agree with Botox and other invasive methods to keep me young, but I don’t know what I’ll do when I start showing signs of ageing! Many in desperation I might start doing Botox,” many clients tell me. But ladies (and gentlemen), there are natural ingredients which will help preserve your skin’s natural firmness. It won’t be anything over-the-top, or anything artificial, or anything too-much – in the sense that your skin won’t look too stretched or too plumped up, or too thin. It will look naturally good.
The skin care Environ uses nature’s own helpers in the form of vitamins and antioxidants to help you preserve your skin’s natural firmness with noninvasive methods.

The skin on the neck is thin and has few oil glands, so it dries out easily and can look papery even on young women.
Sometimes these broken capillaries can be genetic but they are usually the result of sun damage, smoking, harsh temperatures or treating skin roughly. Overindulgence in alcohol and very spicy food can also make them flare up.
By now most of you know that I totally approve of Environ skin care, and that I proudly use them in my clinic. The other day I went for the Environ Peel Training, so I can start offering my clients another service which is parallel-to-none in this industry – for safety and effectiveness.
I am writing a write-up about the Environ peels. Please bear with me, as it is quite long, but it is broken down into sections for those who want to skim through. It is written for clients who want to do an Environ peel at the clinic, but it is also written with the person in mind who wants to do a peel – as a word of caution before going for any peel out there. The photos at the end might not be as clear as I would have wished them to be, because they are taken from a powerpoint presentation, but you will get the idea.
