What is BB GLOW?

What is BB GLOW?

The BB Glow treatment is designed to improve skin tone, achieved through the introduction of micro-injections of foundation. However, it is worth noting that this method is not only used to smooth the skin color, but also to treat it. The fact is that during the BB Glow process, the serum enters the upper layers, which contain vitamins, minerals, trace elements and other substances that have a beneficial effect on the health of the skin.

The BB Glow Treatment technique, like many of the latest aesthetic innovations, was developed in South Korea in 2007 and soon gained widespread popularity beyond Southeast Asia.

BB glow is the advanced development of South Korean beauty experts. Thanks to the use of a special serum, you don’t need to use powder or foundation cream to even out your skin tone throughout the year. The essence of the treatment is to treat and whiten the skin of the face. At the same time, this method itself is completely safe for the body, painless and more like vibration massage.

There is no age limit. In fact, BB glow is ideal for those who want to achieve a perfect, even skin tone without spending too much time in front of the mirror.

In addition to the fact that the BB glow evens out the complexion, the serum helps to tighten pores, moisturize the skin, and smooth fine lines and wrinkles. To achieve this effect, a hypoallergenic color cocktail (with coloring and brightening properties), a set of vitamins and minerals, and hyaluronic acid are injected into the upper layers of the skin. As in the case of many other similar methods, the effect of BB Glow is cumulative, that is, to achieve the greatest effect, it is desirable to perform this method in three or four steps in a certain period of time. Therefore, the effect of a procedure lasts about three months, from three to one year. But do not forget the renewal treatment, it should be done every three months. The thing is, after some time the body starts to remove the pigment with the regular renewal of the epidermis, which means that the skin color may change a little. The maintenance treatment aims to restore an even tone, plus it helps prolong the BB glow effect.

Having smooth and clear skin is pleasant for everyone. But how can you have such a skin?

To have such skin, you can use different solutions such as chemical creams, use of skin clinics, but the first thing that helps your skin health is a healthy lifestyle.

Drink plenty of water

Drinking a lot of water during the day helps to eliminate toxins from the body and this makes us have fresher skin. In addition, drinking water also hydrates and rejuvenates the skin.

Avoid salt

Eating too much salt causes the body to swell. To remove puffiness and swelling of the face and body, it is better to avoid consuming too much salt.

Eat healthy foods

Healthy eating helps the health of the body, vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins and substances useful for the skin. It is better to include them in your daily diet.

Also try to avoid foods like fast food. These types of foods have unhealthy fats that can affect the skin and cause acne. Foods that contain preservatives are also not good for skin health.

Sport

Exercise balances the blood circulation in the body, which makes the oxygen supply to the skin better.

Breathe fresh air

Air pollution destroys the skin, use air purifiers in your home so that the air humidity is suitable and with the increase of humidity, dust is reduced and does not sit on the surface of your skin.

Get rid of stress

Stress causes poor blood circulation, which affects oxygen delivery to the skin and makes your skin look dark and dull. So avoid stress.

Say goodbye to cigarettes

Smoking causes dryness and wrinkles in the skin. Frequent smoking reduces the blood supply to the skin, which makes nutrients and effective substances reach the skin less and collagen formation does not take place easily.

Anatomy of the skin

What is skin?

The skin is the largest organ of the body, which is made of water, protein, fat and minerals. Your skin protects your body from germs and regulates your body temperature. Nerves in the skin help you feel sensations such as heat and cold.

anatomy

What are the layers of the skin?

It forms three layers of skin tissue:

Epidermis, the top layer.

Dermis, middle layer.

Hypoderm, lower layer or fat.

What does the epidermis do?

Your epidermis is the top layer of skin that you can see and touch. Keratin, a protein inside skin cells, makes skin cells and binds together with other proteins to form this layer.

Epidermis:

Acts as a protective barrier: the epidermis prevents bacteria and germs from entering the body and bloodstream and causing infection. It also protects against rain, sun and other elements.

Creation of new skin: The epidermis continuously creates new skin cells.

These new cells replace about 40,000 old skin cells that your body sheds every day. You have new skin every 30 days.

Protects your body: Langerhans cells in the epidermis are part of the body’s immune system. They help fight germs and infections.

Provides skin color: The epidermis contains melanin, the pigment that gives the skin its color. The amount of melanin determines the color of your skin, hair and eyes.

People who produce more melanin have darker skin and may tan sooner.

What does the dermis (middle layer of the skin) do?

The dermis makes up 90% of the thickness of the skin. This middle layer of the skin:

Contains collagen and elastin: Collagen is a protein that makes skin cells strong and flexible. Another protein found in the dermis is elastin, which keeps the skin flexible. It also helps the stretched skin regain its shape.

Hair growth: the roots of the hair follicles attach to the dermis.

Keeps you in touch: Nerves in the dermis tell you when something is too hot, itchy, or too soft to touch. These nerve receptors also help you feel pain.

Sebum generation: Sebaceous glands in the dermis help to keep the skin soft and smooth.

Sweat production: sweat glands in the dermis release sweat through skin pores. Sweat helps regulate your body temperature.

Provides blood: blood vessels in the dermis provide nutrients to the epidermis and keep the layers of the skin healthy.

What does the hypodermis do?

The bottom layer of the skin or hypodermis is the fat layer.

Hypoderm:

Protects muscles and bones: The fat in the hypodermis protects muscles and bones from injury during a fall or accident.

With connective tissue: this tissue connects the layers of the skin to the muscles and bones.

Helps nerves and blood vessels: Nerves and blood vessels in the dermis (middle layer) become larger in the hypodermis. These nerves and blood vessels branch off to connect the hypodermis to the rest of the body.

Regulates body temperature: The fat in the hypodermis prevents you from getting too cold or too hot.

What else makes up skin?

One inch of your skin has approximately 19 million skin cells and 60,000 melanocytes (cells that make melanin, or skin pigment). It also contains 1000 nerve endings and 20 blood vessels.

While you can’t stop the aging process, these steps can help keep your skin healthy: Use sunscreen every day (even if you’re indoors most […]

What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure for your skin. It uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin. The damage helps stimulate your skin’s healing process, so it produces more collagen and elastin. These proteins keep your skin firm and smooth.

Most people do Microneedling on their face, but you can also have it on your legs, back, neck, or other areas where you notice damaged or aging skin.

You will likely need several treatments to achieve your desired results.

Who does Microneedling?

Microneedling has cosmetic and medical applications. If you are concerned, you may consider Microneedling:

Enlarged pores.

Fine lines or wrinkles.

Loose or fluffy skin (thin and wrinkled).

Mild scars, especially those caused by acne.

Skin discoloration or uneven skin tone

Who should not do Microneedling?

Talk to your doctor before Microneedling if you have:

Acne or taking medication for acne.

Blood disorders or anticoagulants (medicines that prevent blood clotting).

Cancer and chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

Frequent skin rashes (contact dermatitis) or herpes.

Keloid tendency (your skin develops hard, raised scars).

Moles, freckles, or other lesions that change in size or shape or bleed.

Skin diseases such as eczema or psoriasis

What can I expect after Microneedling?

In the days and weeks following Microneedling, you may notice that your skin burns or feels tight. Some people also have dry, flaky skin that improves with moisturizer.

Most people need several Microneedling treatments, usually 3 to 8 weeks apart. It may take 3 to 6 months to see results. After that, you may need to renew once a year.

What is Dermaroller?

What is Dermaroller?

The Dermaroller is a skin care device used to help rejuvenate the skin, treat acne scars, and reduce the signs of aging.

The Dermaroller contains hundreds of tiny needles. When used, these needles cause tiny injuries to the skin, which in turn triggers the production of collagen and elastin to overcompensate as it heals, leaving your skin tighter and plumper than before. In addition, when used with a serum (Dermamax Boosting Serums), it can significantly increase the absorption of ingredients.

For a more intense, in-office treatment, many dermatologists use a Dermapen, an electronic Microneedling device. These treatments often have immediate and dramatic results, but can also have side effects such as pain and bleeding. Fortunately, you can use a cheaper, at-home Dermaroller and get great results. It also requires a much lower pain threshold.

Is Dermarolling suitable for all skin types?

Dermarolling can be beneficial for all skin types, although those with sensitive skin should do it less often.

How do I choose a Dermaroller?

First of all, make sure you get one from an experienced retailer.

The next thing to consider is needle size. It is strongly recommended that you only use 0.3mm or less, as anything thicker runs the risk of damaging the skin (especially in the delicate areas around the eyes and lips).

How to use Dermaroller at home?

Prepare your skin by cleansing and then exfoliating with a gentle fruit chemical or enzyme peel – this will help you get the most out of the Dermaroller by increasing the absorption of the ingredients.

After exfoliating (if you use one), use your serum of choice, which you can use with Dermamax boosting serums because of hyaluronic acid, stem cells, peptides, and growth factors (these are the types of ingredients that really enhance the effects of Dermaroller and Microneedling). to stimulate collagen, speed up cell turnover, remove acne, smooth fine lines, tighten, volume and maximize hydration) add to your face and do a Dermaroller and use a collagen sheet mask at the end. And do the aftercare of Dermaroller as mentioned in the BBGLOW blog.

After use, clean your roller with alcohol and store it in its plastic case. Also, make sure to replace your Dermaroller often — once a month, if you use it several times a week, or after about 10 to 15 uses.

How long does it take to see results?

As with most skin care treatments, the length of time it takes to see results can vary depending on your skin type, the Dermaroller you use, and how often you use it. It may take anywhere from two to six months to see results. As far as repeating this method goes, it’s really up to you. You can safely use your microneedle a few times a week.

Does it have side effects?

As with any skin care procedure, there are possible side effects, especially if you don’t use your Dermaroller correctly and follow hygiene precautions. Side effects of Dermarolling are mild but may include irritation, bruising, peeling, bleeding, and infection.
