Facial skin lightening refers to treatments that even out the skin’s tone and give it a homogeneous and clear look.  This is done primarily by reducing and/or eliminating blemishes on the skin that cause dark spots.  Facial skin lightening is different from skin whitening since it doesn’t involve any bleaching of the skin.

So where do dark spots come from?  They are a result of something called hyperpigmentation.  Hyperpigmentation refers to the accumulation of melanin in the skin.  Melanin is the brown pigment that produces normal skin color. When the body produces an excess amount of melanin, the deposits form brown patches on the skin.  Hyperpigmentation is extremely common and affects individuals of all ethnicities and all ages.

Hyperpigmentation can result from genetics or hormonal changes, but most commonly it is caused by overexposure to the sun’s damaging UV rays and heat.  The sun triggers the production of melanin and causes existing pigmentation to darken and it also stimulates the production of new pigmentation.  Heat triggers inflammation and the body responds to the heat by increasing the production of melanin.  Therefore, it is highly recommended to protect your skin from the sun and avoid staying too long in the heat.

While hyperpigmentation doesn’t pose a medical concern, the patches of melanin cause the skin tone to be uneven.   Fortunately, there are many aesthetic facial skin lightening treatments that curb the production of melanin and reduce/eliminate existing melanin deposits.  As a result, the skin looks clearer, lighter and more radiant.

How Facial Skin Lightening treatments work:

The skin is composed of different layers. One of the deeper layers of the Epidermis is called the Basal layer. In the Basal layer, skin cells are formed, and some of the cells migrate to form the outer layer of the skin.  The Basal layer also contains cells called melanocytes.  Melanocytes are responsible for transporting melanosomes – cells that contain melanin.  The Melanocytes therefore set the skin tone of each individual.  Within the melanocyte cell is an enzyme called tyrosinase which is responsible for the production of melanin.  When the tyrosinase enzymes create an excessive amount of melanin, hyperpigmentation forms.

In order to limit hyperpigmentation, many facial skin lightening products have been developed which inhibit tyrosinase and stop it from producing excessive quantities of melanin. These products are popular not only among people who want to reduce existing hyperpigmentation but also as a preventative measure to limit future hyperpigmentation.

Effective facial skin lightening treatments reduce/ eliminate unwanted pigmentation such as freckles, age spots, liver spots and Melasma.  Melasma spots are large dark patches that are predominately caused by sun damage, but can also be caused by hormonal changes. Skin lightening treatments can also treat dark spots caused by acne (once the acne subsides, dark spots sometimes appear).

Ingredients used for facial skin lightening

Some of the common ingredients used to lighten the skin are:

• Hydroquinone
• Vitamin C
• Kojic Acid
• Arbutin

Hydroquinone is a steroid based medication that has been frequently used to treat skin pigmentation.  The advantage of Hydroquinone is that it effectively limits the number of melanocytes in the skin and thus curbs the production of melanin.  However, the safety of Hydroquinone has come into question and its use has been banned by the European Community for cosmetic use and the FDA announced in 2006 that it could potentially cause cancer.

Fortunately, there are a myriad of natural solution for facial skin lightening. Primary among them is vitamin C!

Vitamin C is a powerful anti-oxidant which plays a critical role in combatting hyperpigmentation. Vitamin C helps to inhibit the production of the tyrosinase enzyme and therefore prevents the production of melanin. Also, it lightens pigmentation without affecting normal skin.

Kojic Acid is an additional and natural alternative to treat hyperpigmentation.  Kojic acid is produced from fermented fungi and it inhibits the over production of melanin in highly pigmented skin. Kojic acid is a widely used ingredient for facial skin lightening.

Arbutin is a completely natural solution that acts like hydroquinone.  It inactivates the tyrosinase enzymes and therefore the production of melanin. It has been shown to effectively lighten and brighten the skin tone as well as correct hyperpigmentation such as age spots, melasma and freckles.

The NowMi treatment for facial skin lightening

The NowMi treatment is an effective solution that quickly and safely lightens the skin.  Firstly, during treatment the facial skin is exfoliated.  The exfoliation gets rid of dead skin cells but also removes darkened skin cells in the outermost layer of the skin.  As a result, it lightens hyperpigmentation.  Secondly, during the NowMi vitamin C oxygen facial treatment, the skin is infused with 50% concentration of pure vitamin C.  As mentioned above, vitamin C curbs the production of melanin and thus the creation of pigmentation and also evens out and lightens the existing skin tone.  Vitamin C is also a potent anti-oxidant which helps the skin protect itself from UV rays and thus slows down the appearance of pigmentation.

The NowMi Pro oxygen facial treatment also includes a daily cleansing routine that includes vitamin B3.  This vitamin has been showed to prevent the melanin from migrating to the upper layer of the skin.

Conclusion:

Facial skin lightening is a sought-after treatment for individuals with hyperpigmentation.  Fortunately, there are many natural treatments that reduce unwanted pigmentation and help individuals gain a clearer and lighter complexion.  The NowMi vitamin C oxygen facial treatment is one such alternative.  It infuses the skin with highly concentrated vitamin C that curbs the production of pigmentation and clears away unwanted blemishes.

Facial skin exfoliation is an important part of any healthy facial routine.  During the exfoliation, dead skin cells located on the outermost layer of the skin are gently sloughed off.  While the body naturally sheds these cells, by expediting this process you can help your skin stay healthier and cleaner.  The facial skin exfoliation prevents the dead cells from clogging up the pores and thus limits/prevents dirt build-up.  This is especially important for people who suffer from acne or frequent skin breakouts.  Additionally, with age, the cellular turnover slows down resulting in skin dullness.  The facial skin exfoliation stimulates cellular renewal and helps slow down the signs of aging.  After the exfoliation your skin will feel soft and smooth and it will have a glowing look.

Different techniques for facial skin exfoliation:

Home treatments:

There are different ways to exfoliate the skin.  Here is a list of four popular methods you can use at home:

1. Using a tool that scrubs the skin such as a loofah or washcloth.
2. Using a cleansing cream/gel that has abrasive particles.
3. Using a product that has mild exfoliating acids such as salicylic acids, alpha-hydroxy or beta-hydroxy acid.
4. Using a product that has enzymes that digest dead skin cells, which are gentle on the skin.

Treatments options number 1 & 2 work by rubbing the product onto the skin.  The rubbing action targets the dead cells and removes them.  Option 3 & 4 are based on creating a chemical reaction which clears away the dead skin cells.

Professional treatments:

Virtually all professional facial treatments include facial skin exfoliation. The two main methods are microdermabrasion and chemical peels.

Microdermabrasion treatments:

Microdermabrasion uses a machine that exfoliates the skin and removes the dead cells.  The treatment increases the blood’s circulation and stimulates collagen production which results in younger looking skin.

There are two main treatment types- one is called ‘crystal’ and the other is called ‘diamond’. In the crystal microdermabrasion treatment, fine crystals are spread over the skin which loosen and remove the dead skin cells.  The used crystals and dead skin are then removed using a vacuum suction. In the diamond microdermabrasion treatment, a diamond-tipped wand is used to sand and resurface the skin.  At the end of the treatment, a suction is used to clear away the dead skin cells.

Microdermabrasion treatments can range from mild to aggressive depending on the number of passes, level of the coarseness of the diamond wand or the level of crystal spray, the suction and pressure used, and of course the frequency of treatments.

Chemical peel treatments:

During a chemical peel treatment, an acid solution is applied to the facial skin which dissolves layers of the skin.  Peels can be light, moderate or deep (the deep peels can be performed only by a physician).  The light and moderate treatments target the external layers of the skin while the deeper peels can reach down into the dermis layer. The acid creates a controlled wound in the skin after which healthier and regenerated skin emerges.  Depending on the aggressiveness of the treatment, downtime can range from zero to up to a week or two.

The NowMi facial skin exfoliation:

The NowMi facial skin exfoliation is performed primarily by the vitamin C effervescent tablet which has a high concentration of ascorbic acid.  During treatment, users apply a lubricant gel onto the face and then massage the effervescent tablet onto the skin.  Once the tablet and the gel mix, a chemical reaction occurs which dissolves small granules in the tablet creating a mild abrasive surface which gently clears away all of the dead skin cells.  In addition, the reaction forms millions of CO₂ micro-bubbles on the skin’s surface which increase the oxygen levels in the skin from within and contributes to rapid cell turnover and brighter skin.

The efficiency and speed of the facial skin exfoliation process is significantly enhanced by the use of sonic energy.  The NowMi Pro device emits 6,000 sonic pulsations per minute which ensures that every pore is thoroughly cleansed and all dead skin cells are removed.  In addition, the sonic energy increases the circulation of the blood which stimulates collagen production and cell renewal.

At the same time of the facial skin exfoliation, the skin is infused with vitamins C and E as well as hyaluronic acid that revitalize it and slow down the signs of aging.

How does the NowMi treatment compare to Microdermabrasion?

Here are a few points to consider:

1. The Microdermabrasion treatment on its own “sands” the skin but doesn’t infuse the skin with nourishing products. While many spas will add such products using a mask or creams, the results are inconsistent because some products are better than others. The NowMi treatment on the other hand infuses the skin with virtually pure vitamin C and other nourishing vitamins and minerals. The vitamin C effervescent tablet is stored in a sealed pouch until use which ensures its freshness and potency.
2. NowMi treatment exfoliates the skin on wet skin while Microdermabrasion is performed on dry skin. As a result, the NowMi treatment is much more enjoyable and there is no skin irritation.
3. The NowMi treatment does not involve any vacuum which may damage the skin or create vascular lesions.
4. The effervescent tablet is fairly large and in 5 minutes the entire face can be exfoliated. This is much faster than the Microdermabrasion treatment which uses a small tip.
5. Microdermabrasion irritates the skin – it causes swelling and the development of an anaerobic environment which promotes bacteria growth. As a result, the skin frequently breaks out after treatment. On the other hand, with the NowMi treatment, the skin is exfoliated with very little irritation and the skin doesn’t break out following treatment.
6. The NowMi treatment can be performed in the comfort of your home and doesn’t require a cosmetician.

How does the NowMi treatment compare with a chemical peel?

Common side effects of chemical peels include temporary redness, stinging or burning, dryness and slight swelling.  Patients who undergo deep peel also loose the ability to tan.

Rarer side effects include darkening or lightening of the skin color, scarring (which may be permanent), infections (fungal or bacterial), heart, liver, or kidney damage (the phenol employed in deep peels may cause damage to the heart muscle and cause irregular heartbeats, harm the kidneys or liver.

The NowMi treatment on the other hand uses completely natural vitamins and minerals which can’t in any way damage the skin. The exfoliation is highly effective yet at the same time very gentle ensuring that the skin isn’t irritated.  Treatment is completely safe and there are no side effects.

Conclusion:

Facial skin exfoliation is a fabulous way to keep your skin looking its best. It removes the dead cells from your skin and helps increase cell turnover and skin regeneration.  There are various types of facial skin exfoliations – home scrubs and creams as well as professional treatments such as Microdermabrasion and Skin Peels.

The NowMi treatment offers the best of all worlds- a spa quality facial in the comfort of your own home. The treatment combines an effervescent tablet that gently exfoliates the skin with sonic energy.  As a result, the dead cells are removed in a quick 5-minute treatment.  There is no downtime and no risk of side-effects. The skin is not only exfoliated, but it is also infused with essential vitamins and minerals which help it to look its best.

Facial skin oxygenation from within, also known as an ‘oxygen facial’, is one of the most effective beauty treatments. The present standard of beauty is healthy, clear and smooth looking facial skin. Over the last decade many new home-based beauty treatments designed to improve and maintain healthy skin have been developed. These include home-use devices for daily facial cleansing and high-end cosmetic skin care products.

The home-based treatments can be used as a standalone treatment routine or to compliment treatments performed in a spa. A spa facial beauty treatment usually includes facial skin exfoliation followed by infusion of various skin enhancing ingredients.  It typically ends with the application of a facial skin protection cream. In recent years many cosmeticians have added an oxygen facial stage to improve the skin’s quality, health and smoothness.  This has created a demand for home use-devices that perform facial skin oxygenation.

Our journey to uncover the optimal facial skin oxygenation treatment that would make beautiful facial skin a reality took us back to the year 1846. In this year a jet of salty bubbling water erupted in small city in Germany called Nauheim. This started the era of Nauheim bath treatments. The term “Nauheim bath” refers to a cold salty bath that has high concentrations of up to 3.9% of free carbon dioxide gases.

The influence of the Nauheim bath treatments on the skin is well documented [1-3]. The various scientific explanations described a “sensation of warmth in CO₂ baths and reddening of the skin in the bathed areas of the body”. The scientists explained that the flushing of the skin was due to the additional CO₂ absorbed by the skin during the spa bath. This additional CO₂ was rapidly exhaled, so no changes were apparent in the CO₂ concentration in the blood. The local pH changes that occurred in the region of the capillaries that absorbed the CO₂, resulted in hemoglobin dissociation and the increased transfer of oxygen to the skin tissue [4].  This latter phenomenon was later coined the Bohr effect.

This strong scientific evidence about the influence of CO₂ bubbles on the skin led us to develop the NowMi facial skin oxygenation treatment.

The NowMi treatment uses an effervescent tablet combined with lubricant gel to create a chemical reaction that results in the formation of CO₂ micro-bubbles on the skin’s surface.  The NowMi effervescent tablet contains high concentration vitamin C as well as citric acid and sodium bicarbonate. When the tablet starts dissolving in the lubricant gel, the following reaction begins which releases salt, CO₂ and water:

The released CO₂ creates the scientifically proven Bohr Effect on the facial skin. As a result of the Bohr effect, there is an increase in the capillary blood flow and a release of oxygen from the hemoglobin, which create a facial skin oxygenation from within.

Aging is a part of life.  We all age.  But fortunately, anti-aging facial treatments can protect our facial skin and slow down the signs of aging.

The skin’s aging process occurs in two different ways – intrinsic and extrinsic aging. Intrinsic aging is related to the DNA we inherit from our parents, and it is inevitable and pre-determined.  As a result of intrinsic aging, the skin becomes thinner, less elastic and essentially dryer.  This is a direct result of a reduction in the overall production of collagen. This decrease, combined with gravitation, leads to the sagging of the skin.  The skin becomes dryer because with age the dermis is stripped of its ability to retain moisture. In addition, the aging process leads to a substantial reduction in the sweat glands and sebaceous glands which naturally provide moisture to the skin and help it look plump.  Extrinsic aging is associated with exposure to various toxins and environmental elements. The foremost and most detrimental element is the sun. UV sun rays cause an effect known as ‘photo-aging’ which results in the premature appearance of facial fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, freckles, enlarged pores, broken capillaries and rough, uneven skin tone.

The signs of aging that come with age

As we age, the changes listed below naturally occur:

• Skin becomes coarser.
• Skin becomes loose (the loss of the collagen and elastin causes the skin to hang loosely)
• Skin becomes more translucent and thinner.
• Skin becomes more brittle.

The NowMi Pro facial anti-aging Treatment

The NowMi Pro is an advanced, anti-aging facial treatment that consists of two parts.  The first is the NowMi Pro Daily sonic cleansing which cleanses and moisturizes the skin on a daily basis, and the second is the NowMi Pro Weekly sonic facial anti-aging treatment which provides a spa-quality anti-aging facial that slows down the formation of wrinkles and fine lines, reinvigorates the skin and protects it from damaging extrinsic factors such as UV rays, smoke and pollution.

The NowMi Pro Daily

Healthy facial skin starts with clean skin.  Sonic facial cleansing is much more effective than hand washing. With the NowMi Pro Daily, you can deeply cleanse the skin and get rid of all makeup, dirt, oil and the like.

The NowMi Pro sonic device is equipped with delicate silicone micro-fingers.   The NowMi cleansing formula is placed onto the micro-fingers and then massaged into the face.

The cleansing action is exponentially improved by sonic energy.  The NowMi Pro device issues 6,000 sonic pulsations per minute which help the cleansing gel penetrate and deeply cleanse all of the pores.  While the treatment is extremely effective, it is also very gentle on the skin and doesn’t cause irritation.

The cleansing gel does much more than just clean the skin.  It infuses it with vitamins B3, B5, E and Dead Sea minerals!  These essential vitamins and minerals rejuvinate and strengthen the skin as well as protect it from extrinsic factors.  Specifically:

• Vitamin E: A powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals caused by UV exposure, pollution, smoke, unhealthy food and more.   Vitamin E is known for:
  1. Anti-aging: As a result of damaging extrinsic factors such as UV light and pollution, the skin creates free-radicals. These molecules damage the collagen and the skin cells.  As a result, wrinkles and brown spots appear.  Vitamin E plays a critical role in neutralizing the free radicals and thus preventing premature aging of the skin.
  2. Skin hydration: Vitamin E keeps the skin moisturized and supple, and it is also known to reduce inflammation.
  3. Scar reduction: Vitamin E neutralizes the free radicals which slow down the facial skin healing process and helps to prevent permanent scarring.
     A
• Vitamin B3: Vitamin B3 is effective on all skin types and has a wide variety of skin benefits. Specifically,
  1. Skin protection: Vitamin B3 is an antioxidant that protects the skin from infrared, UV and visible light. Vitamin B3 also protects the skin from heat, an important factor for those with hormonal related pigmentation since the heat can cause the overproduction of pigment.
  2. Hyper-pigmentation reduction: Vitamin B3 reduces hyper-pigmentation by reducing pigment production and its penetration into the skin. As a result, the skin has a more even complexion.  In addition, the vitamin has been shown to brighten the skin.
  3. Anti-aging: Niacinamide has been proven to reduce wrinkles, pigmented spots, yellowing and red blotchiness. It also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin which are responsible for the skin’s firmness and elasticity.
     A
• Vitamin B5: Also known as Pantothenic Acid, Vitamin B5 is deeply hydrating and helps the skin absorb moisture from the air.  It is also important in keeping the skin looking healthy and contributes to its softness and smoothness.   Its key advantages include:
  1. Natural hydrator: Vitamin B5 is a natural hydrator known as a humectant. Its function is to stabilize the skin’s barrier function.  As a result, the skin is able to retain greater quantities of water.
  2. Skin rejuvenation: The alcohol analog of Vitamin B5 is known as panthenol.  Panthenol has been proven to sooth and soften the skin and to slow down the signs of aging.   It also plumps and moisturizes the outer layer of the skin which helps it looks fuller and younger.
  3. Skin repair: Vitamin B5 is used to treat a variety of skin conditions- from minor skin irritation to major scar damage.  In addition, it has anti-inflammatory benefits and is used to reduce discomfort related to conditions such as eczema.
     A
• Dead Sea minerals: The Dead Sea is known as the richest source of healing minerals in the world.   The most prevalent minerals used to are:
  1. Zinc- regulates natural cell growth and regeneration. It enables cell renewal and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. It is also an antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals.  Zink also has anti-acne properties and is used as an anti-inflammatory agent.
  2. Calcium: Strengthens the skin’s cell membranes and cleanses the pores. It also soothes and relives the skin.
  3. Chloride- Corrects the balance of alkaline and acid in the skin’s cells which is critical for the metabolism of the cell.
  4. Sodium Chloride- hydrates and nourishes the skin’s cells and eliminates toxic waste which improves their permeability.

Another important action that the NowMi Pro Daily device performs that of a facial massage.  The sonic face brush massages the facial muscles which and boosts blood circulation. As a result, the body increases the production of collagen and elastin- key proteins that restore the skin’s elasticity and firmness.

The NowMi Pro sonic device is also highly hygienic since it is made of nonporous silicone which is resistant to bacteria buildup.  The device is also completely waterproof, so users can use it in the shower or bath.   Designed to keep up with today’s busy lifestyle, in a single charge, the device has enough energy to supply a month’s worth of treatments.

NowMi Pro Weekly Treatment

With the NowMi Pro Weekly, you can enjoy a spa-quality anti-aging facial at home.   The treatment simultaneously performs 4 actions – sonic skin exfoliation, sonic nourishment, sonic oxygenation and sonic protection.

1.  Sonic exfoliation:  The exfoliation is performed using the NowMi vitamin C effervescent tablet.  The tablet is mixed together with the NowMi Lubricant gel and massaged into the face.  The tablet has a slightly coarse surface that removes the outermost layer of the skin.  The exfoliation is further enhanced by the sonic energy which emits 6,000 sonic pulsations per minute.  As a result of the exfoliation, the skin looks glowing and revitalized.  Best of all, the exfoliation opens up the pores and enables the active ingredients to best penetrate the skin.

2.  Sonic nourishment:  The NowMi effervescent tablet contains virtually pure vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid.  Ascorbic acid is highly sensitive and loses its potency if exposed to light or air.  For this reason, the NowMi effervescent tablet is vacuum-sealed until use, assuring the most effective form of vitamin C.
The NowMi lubricant gel is rich in vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid.

The main benefits of these ingredients are:

• Vitamin C: Vitamin C is hailed as the magic vitamin for skincare.  It has been clinically proven to revitalize the skin and help it repair itself.  Vitamin C is also an antioxidant that curbs the damaging effects of free-radicals which cause the skin to age prematurely.

Primary advantages of the vitamin include:

1. Anti-aging effect: As we age, our skin has less and less collagen which causes it to sag and wrinkles to appear.  Vitamin C plays a vital role in helping the skin to produce new collagen.  With the new collagen, the aging process is slowed down and the skin looks plumper and more supple.
2. Anti-inflammatory effect: Vitamin C reduces skin inflammation. This helps to prevent post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation and age-related inflammatory skin conditions such as Rosacea.
3. Anti-pigmentary effect: Vitamin C curbs the formation of melanin, the pigment that gives our skin its color.  It helps to repair pigmentation damage and provides the skin with a more even tone.  It also helps in lightening the skin.
4. Skin protection: Vitamin C protects the skin from damaging UV rays.  The UV rays stimulate the formation of free radicals that harm the skin and cause premature aging, known as photoaging. Clinical studies have shown that vitamin C creates a photo-protective effect against photoaging  – it limits collagen disintegration and damage to the pigment,  helps to stabilize the collagen fibers, and produces new collagen.

• Vitamin E:  Discussed above
• Hyaluronic acid: Hyaluronic acid plays a critical role in skin hydration.  It is capable of holding 1,000 times its weight in water and helps tissues stay moist and lubricated.  Its key benefits are:
  1. Anti-aging:  When the skin is well hydrated, this slows down the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.
  2. Supple skin:  The hydration helps the skin to have a soft and supple appearance.
  3. Wound healing:  Hyaluronic acid accelerates the wound healing process by balancing inflammation levels and signaling the body to create more blood vessels in the treatment area.

The active ingredients are infused into the skin.  The infusion is improved by the sonic energy which helps them to penetrate deeper and faster into the skin.   Once the skin’s supply of vitamin C, E and Hyaluronic acid are restored, the skin starts to repair itself and turn back the signs of aging.

3. Sonic Oxygenation: The NowMi treatment is unique since it stimulates the body to “oxygenate itself from within”.  During treatment, a chemical reaction occurs when the NowMi effervescent tablet comes into contact with the lubricant gel. The reaction creates a C0₂ rich environment on the skin’s surface.  The body responds to this by sending 0₂ infused blood cells to the treatment area.  This natural oxygenation process helps the skin cells to best absorb the active ingredients.   Furthermore, the NowMi Pro device emits 6,000 sonic pulsations per minute which degas the C0₂  microbubbles, and as a result, the oxygenation effect is increased exponentially.

4. Sonic Protection:  Vitamin C is the most common antioxidant in the skin. Unfortunately, with age, its levels dramatically reduce, and aged skin has about 70% fewer antioxidants than young skin. With the deciline in Vitamin C, the skin becomes more vulnerable to extrinsic factors such as UV rays, pollution and smoke.
   The NowMi Pro treatment restores the skin’s vitamin C supply which helps it to protect and heal itself from damaging extrinsic factors.The sonic energy plays an important role in the protection of the skin.  The NowMi Pro device emits 6,000 sonic pulsations per minute which exponentially increases the infusion of the vitamin C, ensuring that it reaches deep into the skin.
