does red light therapy help melasma: The Truth About Melasma Janett Juwien, The Truth About Melasma is an educational skincare book that unveils the true nature of melasma. It combines facts about melasma backed up by science with a holistic treatment approach. Find out how a damaged environment and a stressed society contribute to this skin condition. Become empowered to heal yourself. Regain balance within your body, create harmony in your environment and fall in love with yourself while healing your skin. After working as an aesthetician for many years, Janett Juwien noticed that clients with melasma have risen to an alarming number. To her own and her clients’ frustration, she had to tolerate the fact that professional treatments and cosmetics do not give the desired results. The information she has gathered from her clients’ personal melasma stories revealed to her that this is more than just sun-induced or pregnancy-related hyperpigmentation. She decided to start the search on a medical database for answers and felt a responsibility to pass on the findings. Melasma is a hyperpigmentary skin condition that is still not 100% understood. Worldwide, thousands of people suffer from it and the numbers seem to rise. Different melasma support groups on social media hold up to 75k members. In these groups, women share skincare tips but also discuss their grief and even voice suicidal thoughts caused by the daily distress they feel by the appearance of their skin. The Truth About Melasma is a well-researched educational resource that is backed up by clinical research with over 250 references. The author Janett Juwien dedicated uncountable hours to examining the clinical studies about melasma and packed the findings into bite-sized and easy-to-understand segments presented in just under 200 pages. This book offers cutting-edge information and a renegade view of the root causes, which Janett identifies as imbalances in the body's internal systems. It presents the environmental factors that contribute to these imbalances, such as emotional stress, air pollution, artificial light, heavy metals and toxins in food and cosmetics. What seems to start as a true crime thriller, offers a happy end with simple, gentle and holistic solutions to fight this stubborn skin condition. |

does red light therapy help melasma: Challenges in Sun Protection Christian Surber, Uli Osterwalder, 2021-10-25 In the early 20th century, tanned skin was associated with good health. However, people began to protect themselves against potential overexposure to avoid sunburns. Around 1945, the first sunscreen products became available. In the years to follow, a vast number of different sunscreen filters and frameworks regulating filter substances and preparations, and methods characterizing sunscreen products were developed. The perception regarding the tasks of sunscreen products changed several times – initially it was promoted as a lifestyle product, then as a skin cancer preventive means, and more recently also for anti-aging. Different purposes and the widespread use of these products have led to myriad studies and a wealth of information. In this volume, the editors present a current collection of information analyzing and discussing issues related to sunscreen products and their use. These include challenges regarding the ideal sunscreen product including filter selection and formulation issues, measurement methods, performance characterization, safety, and regulatory issues. Further papers address topics related to the use of sunscreen products in everyday life, in vulnerable cohorts and outdoor workers. Controversial topics such as environmental effects of sunscreen products and the risks and benefits of UV radiation in the context of skin cancer, vitamin D and cardiovascular and metabolic health are also covered. |
does red light therapy help melasma: Percutaneous Collagen Induction With Microneedling Emerson Lima, Mariana Lima, 2020-10-29 Percutaneous Collagen Induction with Microneedling is a minimally invasive technique widely used to treat numerous dermatologic conditions such as facial and body scars, melasma, wrinkles, skin laxity, stretch marks, alopecies, vitiligo and scleroderma. Microneedling can also be used to optimize transdermal drug delivery for many substances. This technique uses modern microneedling devices containing multiple fine needles, typically 0.5 to 2.5 mm in length, which are mounted on a barrel and rolled onto the skin to create numerous perforations into the stratum corneum and the papillary dermis. These micro-wounds initiate the release of growth factors, triggering collagen and elastin formation, which results in dermal remodeling and skin resurfacing. This book provides a step-by-step approach to microneedling, based on the authors’ more than ten years of experience with the technique, during which they have treated more than 3,000 patients in Brazil for numerous dermatologic conditions. Richly illustrated throughout, it includes over 400 illustrations. |
