Dermatologist Recommended Skin Care



If you’re like me, when you look for something like skin care, a recommendation by a professional makes a big difference, right? But what if that recommendation is not all it’s cracked up to be?

In other words, what if “Dermatologist Recommended” doesn’t really mean that a skin care product is effective, or even safe for your skin?

Sadly, that’s the case with some products.

These dermatologist recommended skin care creams and other products probably are recommended by some doctor, somewhere, but they are full of chemicals that are not helpful to your skin and may be harmful not only to your skin but to your overall health-chemicals like acrylamides, parabens and alchohol. Many of these products contain carcinogens and neurotoxins.

Is this really something you want to put on your skin?

No, probably not. So how do these products get to be dermatologist recommended skin care?

There are two reasons.

First, there is always a doctor who will recommend something in exchange for the name recognition or the money involved. That’s just a sad truth.

Second, you have to understand that chemicals are a part of the world of medicine. Dermatologists use chemicals all the time; they’re called medicine. They may not really be thinking in terms of how these chemicals affect your skin long-term, because they’re focusing on fixing the immediate problem.

But your focus is on healthy skin, and for that you need a natural solution.

Fortunately, you can find natural dermatologist recommended skin care products. The key is to look for natural ingredients that target the issues you’re hoping to correct.

What To Look for in Skin Care Products

One important ingredient to look for is natural Vitamin E. Active manuka honey and avocado oil, as well as babassu, will help your skin stay well-hydrated and resist signs of aging. Because these ingredients are all-natural and completely organic, you could eat them! You can apply them to broken skin to promote healing, so you can imagine that they will help keep your skin young-looking and healthy.

Naturally, you don’t even have to know that these ingredients are part of a dermatologist approved skin care regime to know that they are great for your skin. But what do they do?

Avocado oil stimulates the production of collagen while reducing age spots, while babassu prevents dry skin and creates a layer of protection to lock in moisture and keep out dirt and pollutants. Manuka honey is an antibacterial that stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, and helps soothe serious skin conditions. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps reduce blemishes, age spots and wrinkles. So you can see that these ingredients are very important in any natural dermatologist recommended skin care product.

So what’s the bottom line? Always go natural and always know the ingredients in any product you choose. Dermatologist recommended skin care may have it’s place but you need to educate yourself as well.

Ya’Mon

I’m here today a little more tan and relaxed than I was a week ago. We spent the week at the Beaches resort in Turks and Caicos (in the Caribbean) where I ate, read, and swam in that rotation for about six days. We were totally cut off from cell phone service and internet for almost a week and it was fabulous. I thought I’d start twitching without the internet, but no offense to my beloved Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, Google Reader, My Fitness Pal and blog, but I didn’t miss it at all. Being totally unplugged is oh so nice and is making me think that I should do it at least once a week.

Vacation taught me to spend more time outside, to unplug, to sit and read and to embrace doing nothing. I also need to make jerk chicken very soon. I thought my trip would be spent eating sushi, but the jerk chicken won my heart. I love you jerk chicken. Let’s be friends.

And finally, can I just say that it feels good to have this year’s big looming dates done and over with? I’m horrible at losing weight for an event. I thought getting on a plane and stripping down to a bathing suit in front of people would inspire more weight loss, but it only stressed me out and made me panic. Stress+ panic does nothing for my weight loss. Combine that with a trip to the doctor who basically said in no uncertain terms “if you don’t lose weight, you will get diabetes”. I’m on it doctor. For reals.

I joined Zumba the week before I left and loved it. Our local gym offers it three days a week (monday, tuesday and wednesday) and I plan to be there for each one. Combine that with calorie counting, and strength training and I feel good about my direction.

Breakfast this morning is one of my favorites: 3/4 C whole, plain organic yogurt, all fruit blackberry jam, fresh blueberries and a little Ezekiel granola.

Finding a doctor to help with your mole removal

Every day people make appointments with their healthcare professional to have some form of mole removal. If you are interested in having one or more of your moles professionally removed, you will have to find a healthcare professional that can assist you. This may seem easy, but it is a task that, when you think about it, isn’t actually as easy as it may seem.

When visiting the local doctor or general practitioner, whether or not you are a new patient, you need to inform your doctor of your situation upfront. Almost all doctors, local doctors, are able to diagnosis and remove moles, but not all choose to. If your regular doctor doesn’t provide a mole removal service, nine times out of ten will direct you in the direction of someone that does. This person might be a family physician or a doctor who specialises in skin conditions. This type of doctor is classified as a dermatologist.

When finding a doctor due to your moles on skin, it is very important that you study the services on offer, but it is also important to take not as to how much the services actually cost. Usually for some unknown reason it costs more to hire a dermatologist, when compared to traditional healthcare physicians. If you have health insurance, it is important to find a doctor that accepts your medical insurance. If its not possible to find a doctor like this or if you don’t have any medical cover, you should enquire about monthly payment. Depending on the doctor in question, you should be able to obtain credit or monthly payments.

By remembering the points already discussed above, you should not only be able to find a doctor who can professionally remove your moles for you, but you should easily be able to track down a doctor who can do it for a cost effective and realistic price. With several different options, why pay extra money than you have to? But remember this, you don’t have to visit a doctor to have your moles removed, you can do it yourself safely and efficiently using natural mole removal remedies.
