Wintertime Oxygen Treatment

Posted on January 28, 2020April 22, 2020 by abigail

During the winter months the facial skin tends to dry out more easily. There are many reasons for this- the cooler temperatures, the reduced humidity in the air, the overly hot showers we tend to take, and the fact that we spend so much time in overheated indoor environments.

All of these factors take their toll on our skin. As cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Sam Bunting says “Heated air inside causes low humidity, which leads to water evaporating from our skin…This can cause cracking, flaking and irritation and leave skin with a lackluster, parched appearance.” The skin is further damaged by the constant shifting between the heated indoors and the cold outdoors. This process causes the facial capillaries to rapidly contract and expand which can lead to skin redness and broken veins. And when it comes to super-hot showers, dermatologist Dr. Nick Lowe advises “Hot baths and showers can dissolve the protective barrier in the skin which will eventually lead to dryness”.

One of the best ways to take care of your skin is to pamper it with a wintertime oxygen treatment. The treatment focuses on hydrating the skin and restoring moisture.

Advantages of a wintertime oxygen treatment

oxygen facial treatment — Traditional oxygen facial

1. Oxygen is vital for the skin– During the winter months, the dry air reduces the oxygen content in the skin. To counter this, the wintertime oxygen treatment infuses the skin with pure oxygen. As a result, the cells are revitalized and reinvigorated. They are able to better absorb nourishing vitamins and minerals, clear waste and heal themselves.

2. Anti-aging effect– One of the reasons for premature skin aging is a decrease in the levels of oxygen in the skin. As we age, the blood capillaries in the facial skin tend to clog, and as a result, the cells don’t function at their full capacity. The facial skin becomes paler, thinner and more fragile. By infusing the skin with oxygen, you can dramatically slow down the signs of aging and enjoy a more youthful appearance.

3. Deep skin hydration – During the wintertime oxygen treatment, the skin is infused with nourishing vitamins and minerals. One of the key ingredients used is Hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid, also known as hyaluronan, is a substance naturally produced by the body. Its primary function is to retain water and it can hold 1,000 times its weight in water! Hyaluronic acid plays a major role in keeping tissues moist and well lubricated and as a result, the skin looks and feels more supple.

NowMi Pro vitamin C oxygen facial treatment — NowMi Oxygen Facial

If you lead a busy lifestyle and it is hard for you to find the time to go to a spa to get your wintertime oxygen treatment, there is an alternative! The NowMi treatment enables you to enjoy a spa-quality treatment in the comfort of your own home. Best of all, the treatment takes only 5 minutes and costs a fraction of the price of its spa equivalent.

The NowMi Pro is a remarkable device that performs two functions- daily sonic cleansing and weekly vitamin C oxygen facial.

The daily cleanser deeply cleanses the skin and infuses it with vitamins E, B3, B5 and Dead Sea minerals which strengthen and revitalize it.

The weekly vitamin C oxygen facial treatment performs 4 actions- skin exfoliation, nourishment, oxygenation and protection.

Exfoliation: During exfoliation, all dead skin cells, makeup and dirt are removed from the facial skin’s surface.

Nourishment: The skin is infused with pure vitamin C, vitamin E and Hyaluronic acid. As mentioned above, Hyaluronic acid plays a major role in helping the facial skin retain its moisture, especially during the dry winter months.

Oxygenation: The NowMi treatment uses a unique technology to ‘oxygenate itself from within’. The same science-backed skin oxygenation technology of the OxyGeneo treatment that has been used in professional clinics since 2013. Unlike traditional oxygen facials in which the oxygen is infused from the outside, in the NowMi oxygen facial treatment, the oxygenation process is internal, and as a result, all of the cells are oxygenated and optimally absorb the infused vitamins and minerals.

Protection: The NowMi treatment replenishes the skin’s supply of vitamin C and E. As a result, the skin is better able to protect itself during the winter months from UV rays and other ailments that dry it out.

Conclusion:

The winter months are harsh on the skin. The decline in temperatures, the dry air and the constant shift between heated and unheated environments take their toll on our skin. Wintertime oxygen treatments can help a lot! They can restore lost moisture, nourish the skin, and help it remain balanced.

oxy facial kit for oily skin

Posted on January 22, 2020July 18, 2020 by abigail

Does your skin have an oily complexion? Are you frustrated because you haven’t found the right treatment for your facial skin? Do you want your skin to be more balanced? There is a solution- the NowMi oxy facial kit for oily skin!

The NowMi oxy facial kit for oily skin is a breakthrough in skincare. It is unique because it allows you to enjoy the most advanced skincare technology, which up until now has been limited to professional spas, in a home-use device.

The NowMi oxy facial kit for oily skin includes a NowMi Pro sonic applicator, 6 vitamin C effervescent tablets, a lubricant gel tube, and a cleansing gel tube. The NowMi applicator has two sides – one side is used to perform the weekly vitamin C oxygen facial and the other for the daily sonic cleansing treatment.

NowMi Weekly Facial

Just like a professional spa facial treatment, the NowMi weekly facial treatment includes 4 actions- skin exfoliation, nourishment oxygenation and protection.

1. Skin exfoliation– deep skin cleansing is an incremental part of caring for oily skin. The exfoliation removes the outer layer of the skin and clears away all excess oil, makeup and dirt. The exfoliation is carried out using the NowMi effervescent tablet. The tablet has a coarse texture and when it is mixed with the NowMi lubricant gel it easily glides across the skin. During the treatment, you need to message the tablet on the skin in circular motions to exfoliate it. In addition, the NowMi device uses sonic energy which increases the efficiency and speed of the exfoliation process. The device transmits 6,000 sonic pulsations per minute which ensures that every pore is thoroughly cleansed.

2. Skin nourishment– the NowMi treatment infuses the skin with vitamin C, E and Hyaluronic acid. Vitamin C is excellent for oily skin. Since the main problem with oily skin is that it produces excess amounts of sebum, by increasing the amount of vitamin C in the skin, you can help it become more balanced. Furthermore, vitamin C boosts the collagen levels in the skin which slows down the signs of aging. It also reduces the amount of pigmentation and helps the skin to look smooth and radiant.

Vitamin E is renowned for its antioxidant properties and its ability to limit skin damage caused by extrinsic factors such as UV rays, pollution and smoke. Vitamin E also hydrates the skin and helps it heal faster.

Many people with oily skin over-cleanse their skin and cause it to dry out. While cleansing the skin to reduce excess sebum is critical, it is important to hydrate the skin so that it maintains its natural elasticity and suppleness. This is where Hyaluronic acid comes in. Hyaluronic acid plays a vital role in moisturizing the skin and ensuring the skin doesn’t dry out.

3. Skin oxygenation– many leading spas offer oxygen facial treatments. The professional treatments use a high-pressure jet spray gun to infuse pure oxygen into the skin. While these treatments work well, the NowMi vitamin C oxygen facial treatment has taken oxygen treatments to the next levels and stimulates the body to ‘oxygenate itself from within’.

The oxygenation effect is based on a scientific principle known as the ‘Bohr Effect’. According to the Bohr Effect, if the body is bombarded with high concentrations of carbon dioxide, it responds by oxygenating the area. Therefore, the NowMi treatment creates high concentrations of carbon dioxide on the skin’s surface and the body then sends oxygen-rich blood cells to counter this imbalance. Because of the oxygenation effect, the vitamins and minerals to be optimally absorbed by the cells.

4. Skin protection: The NowMi treatment helps to prevent skin damage. Once the skin’s supply of vitamin C and E have been restored, it can optimally protect itself from damaging factors such as UV rays, pollution and smoke.

NowMi Daily Cleanser

The American Association of Dermatology recommends to daily wash oily skin. The NowMi Pro device comes with a daily cleanser that removes all excess sebum from your face. The cleanser is applied using silicone micro-fingers, and the cleansing action is further enhanced using sonic energy. The sonic energy pushes the cleansing solution into the pores and ensures they are thoroughly cleaned. Scientific research has demonstrated that cleaning the face with sonic energy is up to 6 times more efficiant than hand washing.

The NowMi cleansing gel not only cleanses the skin but also infuses it with vitamins E, B3, B5 and Dead Sea minerals. These active ingredients nourish and hydrate the skin and help it keep balanced and looking its best.

Summary:

If your skin has an oily complexion, you should try the oxy facial kit for oily skin. It will help you cleanse your skin on a daily basis, and also perform a weekly facial that exfoliates, nourishes and hydrates the skin.

One of the main advantages of the NowMi treatment is you can perform the treatment at home and it only takes 5 minutes.

Facial for oily skin

Posted on January 13, 2020April 22, 2020 by abigail

If you suffer from oily skin, professional facials are an excellent way to care for your facial skin and ensure it is getting what it needs to look its very best. While there are many different types of facials for oily skin, you should be looking for a facial treatment that performs two actions- deep cleansing and intense nourishment.

Oily skin occurs when the body produces too much sebum. Sebum is a complex mixture of fatty acids, sugars, waxes and other natural ingredients created by the sebaceous glands. Sebum is vital for healthy skin as it coats, moisturizes and protects it.

In order to care for oily skin, the facial skin needs to be frequently cleansed in order to get rid of the excess amounts of sebum. However, this needs to be done with care. It is important to deeply clean the face but not to strip it of all of its moisture and nourishing vitamins and minerals. If the cleansing action is too aggressive, the body receives a signal that the skin is dry and dehydrated and in turn produces even more sebum!

Sebum is formed within the Sebaceous gland

Once the skin has been cleaned and all of its pores are open, you need to add moisture and revitalizing nutrients. This is important in order for the skin be healthy and balanced.

Recommended Professional Facial treatments for Oily Skin

Bazar Magazine recommended these 5 facials for those suffering from oily skin.

1. Ultimate Hydra-02 Experience. The treatment involves a 90-minute facial at a cost of $420. The treatment combines a deep-cleansing Hydrafacial with glow-boosting Intraceuticals. The treatment begins with the thorough cleansing of the skin to remove all dirt and makeup. Then, using a suction tip, all dead skin cells are removed. If necessary, the aesthetician manually extracts all blackheads and whiteheads that clog up the pores. Next, exfoliating acids are applied to the skin. The acids are potent yet gentle, and accelerate cell renewal and smoothen the skin’s surface. Lastly, an oxygen jet infuses a nutrient-rich serum into the skin. The serum consists of a blend of antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and vitamins that nourish and soothe the skin, rejuvenate it and give it a glowing look.

2. PAI Skin Confidence Detox and Decongest Facial. The treatment costs $200 for a 90-minute session. This professional facial is hailed for its use of organic ingredients. The PAI Skincare products contain at least 70% organic ingredients which makes them ideal for individuals with sensitive or allergy-prone skin. To treat the extra shine that people with oily skin have, the PAI treatment uses Himanthalia Sea Algae which is a rich mineral known to regulate the activity of the sebum glands. Ghassoul clay is also used to remove impurities from the pores and nourish the skin. Furthermore, Rice Water, which is rich in amino acids is used to rebalance moisture levels and provide an even skin tone.

The treatment uses Hydra Cryo-Serum which contains Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate the skin and collagen to firm the skin. While the serum is being applied, the aesthetic practitioner uses a cryotherapy probe to cool the skin’s temperature. The cooling action reduces inflammation, aids in the absorption of the serum, calms the sebum glands and contracts the skin. Next, a relaxing facial massage helps to tone the skin. Finally, a Hyaluronic Youth Mask is used to seal in moisture providing the skin with a smooth and supple look.

To deeply cleanse the skin, the SK-II facial uses a machine called the Aqua Clean. Aqua Clean uses different types of solutions along with advanced vacuum technology to deeply cleanse and exfoliate the skin. The advantage of the treatment is that it is very effective without using harsh exfoliants. One solution used is the Ionic Silver Gel which kills the p-Acne, the bacteria that causes acne. Another solution is the Skin Recovery Gel which contains high levels of vitamin E. The vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that supports the skin’s natural self-healing process.

5. Detox Anew. The treatment costs 80$ and lasts 75 minutes. During the Detox Anew treatment, a plant-based exfoliant is used to deeply cleanse the skin. The exfoliant is used in conjunction with an Azulene-based calming mask, which removes toxins and impurities from the skin.

Oxygen facial for greasy skin

Posted on January 5, 2020April 22, 2020 by abigail

Dealing with greasy skin can be very frustrating. The greasy facial skin appearance occurs because the skin produces too much sebum. Sebum is an oily substance secreted by the sebaceous glands that helps keep the skin moisturized. While sebum is vital for the facial skin, if the body creates too much of it, the skin becomes oily. Another problem is that the sebum reflects light which causes the skin to look greasy.

The good news is that it has never been easier to take care of greasy skin. An oxygen facial treatment for greasy skin performs two vital actions that help the skin keep balanced- it deeply cleanses the skin and rids it of unwanted sebum while at the same time nourishes it so that it doesn’t get dry. The treatment is completely non-invasive, pain-free and has no downtime.

How the professional oxygen facial for greasy skin works?

The oxygen facial in a spa involves several steps. The first step is exfoliation of the skin. During the exfoliation, the outermost layer of the skin is removed. This layer contains dead skin cells, dirt, oil and makeup. By deeply cleansing the skin, the excess layers of sebum are removed and the pores are cleansed. As an aside, the excess sebum tends to clog up the pores which leads to frequent breakouts and acne.

Next, using a specialized spray gun, the facial skin is infused with oxygen. Once the skin cells receive high dosages of oxygen they function better. The oxygen increases the blood circulation in the treatment area and promotes the production of collagen.

In addition to the oxygen, healing vitamins and minerals are also infused into the skin. The exact combination depends on the aesthetician performing the oxygen facial treatment. Some of the most popular serums used are:

1. Vitamin C: Vitamin C helps curb the production of excess sebum and deeply nourishes the skin. It improves the radiance of the skin and protects it from damaging effects of environmental pollution.

2. Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic acid is excellent for oily skin. It helps the skin maintain moisture and improves its texture and elasticity.

3. Botanical Extracts: The extracts limit the excess production of oil and reduce the size of the pores.

4. Lactic Acid: The lactic acid helps to shrink the size of the pores, improve skin texture and reduce dark spots.

5. Retinol Serum: For those new to Retinol, lower dosages are used. Retinol has been shows to help balance greasy skin.

6. Gr+G Serum: An organic formula that contains grapeseed oil that regulates sebum production and keeps the skin clear. Additionally, it contains vitamin E that moisturizes and nourishes the skin.

Personal Oily Face Treatment

Posted on December 19, 2019April 15, 2020 by abigail

Oily skin occurs when the sebaceous glands in the skin produce an excess amount of sebum. Sebum is an oily, waxy substance that coats, moisturizes and protects the skin. It is crucial for the skin since it forms a protective barrier on the skin’s surface that limits water from evaporating. If you have oily skin, it is recommended that you adopt a personal oily face treatment in order to reduce the amount of sebum on your face while at the same time ensuring that your skin is sufficiently nourished and hydrated.

Symptoms of oily skin:

People with oily skin often have skin that has:

A shiny or greasy appearance
Skin that appears rough or thick
Clogged pores and blackheads
Large pores on the skin
Frequent breakouts

The main reason for oily skin is genetic. However, hormonal changes or high-stress levels can also stimulate the body to create excess amounts of sebum.

Personal oil face treatment

By adopting a personal oil face treatment, you can significantly limit the amount of oil on your face. Here are important skin care tips recommended by the American Academy of Dermatology.

1. Wash your face every morning, evening and after exercise. When washing your skin, gently massage it with a cleanser and avoid scrubbing it. The scrubbing irritates the skin and can make it look even worse.

2. Choose skin care products that have an ‘oil free’ and ‘noncomedogenic’ label. This label means that the products will not clog your pores or cause acne. You can find cleansers, moisturizes and makeup with these labels.

3. Select a gentle foaming face wash. A common mistake when treating oily skin is to choose a strong face wash for oily skin in order to dry out the skin. However, if the face wash is too harsh it irritates the skin and stimulates it to produce even more sebum. So, stick to the mild and gentle products.

4. Avoid oil-based or alcohol-based cleansers. These cleansers irritate the skin.

5. Moisturize your face daily. Even though you have oily skin, it is very important that you keep it hydrated. It is recommended to use a moisturizer that has an SPF of 30 or higher in order to protect the skin from harmful UV rays.

6. Always wear sunscreen when you are outdoors. Sunscreen helps prevent skin damage such as wrinkles and age spots. Choose sunscreens that contain zinc oxide and titanium dioxide since these products limit acne breakouts. Also, stay away from sunscreens that contain fragrance or oils.

7. Only use oil-free, water-based makeup. Always remove your makeup before going to bed, and never go to sleep with makeup.

8. Use blotting papers throughout the day. Use the papers gently and don’t rub them on your face. If you rub them, it will only spread the oil to other areas on your face. Instead, gently press the paper against your face and leave it on for a few seconds to absorb the oil.

9. Try not to touch your face too much. If you touch your face too much you can spread dirt, oil and bacteria from your hands to your face. Try to touch your face only when you are cleansing it, moisturizing it or applying makeup. Make sure your hands are clean before you touch your face.

According to beauty expert Mansa Gundu, “Vitamin C works magically for oily skin because it has an antioxidant property which helps to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, and all aging effect. It also gives even tone and adds the natural whitening skin. In addition to this, vitamin c protect your skin from damage especially from sun rays.” In addition to the vitamin C, the skin is also infused with Hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is excellent for oily skin since it keeps the facial skin moisturized at the right level, so it doesn’t need to produce any more sebum to keep hydrated. Finally, the skin is infused with vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects and nourishes the skin.

Anti-aging facials

Posted on December 11, 2019December 13, 2019 by abigail

Today, more than ever before, people are able to maintain their youthful appearance way into their 50’s and 60’s. Just look at Hollywood celebs – Jennifer Lopez is 50 and looks like a twenty years old, Ellen DeGeneres is 61 and looks amazing, and Madonna is simply ageless. Over the past 20 years the aesthetic industry has developed enormously and has developed a wide variety of products and technologies that help people look their very best. And when it comes to anti-aging facials, they have proven themselves to be incredibly effective in turning back the clock- removing wrinkles and fine lines, pigmentation, sunspots, age spots etc.

What to expect during an anti-aging facials treatment?

Most anti-aging facials involve the following steps:

1. Cleansing– your aesthetician will thoroughly cleanse your skin with a facial cleanser (using a sponge or cotton pads).

2. Skin analysis– the skin is inspected using a magnifying lamp to determine its condition – i.e. dryness, pigmentation, wrinkles, broken capillaries etc. Based on the analysis, the aesthetician then plans the treatment protocol.

3. Exfoliation– during exfoliation, the outermost layer of the skin is removed and it is deeply cleansed of dead skin, oils and dirt. There are different types of exfoliation. Mechanical exfoliations use face scrubs (and/or different forms of brushes or washcloths) to remove the dead skin cells. A more aggressive alternative is microdermabrasion. During the microdermabrasion treatment a blast of micro-crystals is blown across the skin and then vacuumed out. The procedure removes the dead cells on the skin’s surface and leave the skin looking younger and fresher. An even more aggressive treatment is a chemical peel which uses different acids to remove skin cells (there are different levels of chemical peels from very mild to highly aggressive peels).

4. Extraction – your aesthetician will remove any blackheads or whiteheads (mature skin sometimes has large blackheads).

5. Light therapy treatments – If your treatment protocol involves light therapy treatments such as lasers or IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), your aesthetician will usually perform the treatment after the exfoliation/extraction. During light therapy treatments, high-intensity pulses of light are penetrated into the epidermis and dermis of the skin to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, eliminate pigmentation, reduce pores and more. Usually there is no downtime or very minimal downtime following these procedures.

5. Facial massage – the facial massage stimulates the skin and facial muscles and increases blood flow. Often the massage is very soothing and relaxing.

6. Facial mask – a facial mask with anti-aging active ingredients is applied onto the face.

7. Creams – various protective creams and toners are applied onto the skin.

8. Discussion – your aesthetician will discuss with you how frequently you should have a treatment and what home skin care regimen you should adopt.

Personal Vitamin C Oxygen Facial

Posted on December 4, 2019August 12, 2020 by abigail

Vitamin C- The Wonder Vitamin

In a recent article in Vogue Magazine, New-York based Dermatologist Dr Dennis Gross stated that “Vitamin C has a wonderful duality: it both brightens and firms the skin…Not only does it help to lighten and break up pigmentation you might already have, it also prevents dark spots or sunspots from forming in the future. Vitamin C, in all its brilliance, also increases your skin’s natural production of collagen, giving skin radiance and vitality.” So there you have it, the secret to younger looking and healthier skin is not in man-made chemicals or exotic ingredients, it is in the vitamin C found in every orange!

The secret to great looking skin is in vitamin C

So, where is the catch, you ask? The catch is in the quality of the vitamin C that you apply to your skin.

As neuroscientist Dr Claudia Aguirre explains “L-ascorbic acid is the main form of vitamin C”. The key challenge is that it is a very unstable molecule that dramatically losses its efficiency if exposed to oxygen, light, or its freshness is compromised. Dr Claudia Aguirre therefore concludes that “The main point is to have a stable form for vitamin C that gets delivered to the skin.”

Once the vitamin C starts to degrade, its color turns yellow. This is the reason why many of the serums containing vitamin C have a yellow tint. If you are using a such serum beware that most probably the vitamin C within it has lost its potency.

The Solution: the NowMi Personal Vitamin C Oxygen Facial

The NowMi device was created to deliver the purest form of vitamin C to the skin (click here to read more about the benefits of vitamin C). Therefore, the vitamin C is stored in a sealed pouch until use. The pouch protects the vitamin from exposure to oxygen or light and also guards its freshness. The vitamin C comes in the form of an effervescent tablet. Once the pouch is opened, the effervescent tablet is massaged onto the face together with the NowMi lubricant gel. The effervescent tablet gently exfoliates the skin and removes all dirt, oil and dead skin cells. After the skin has been exfoliated, it optimally absorbs the vitamin C.

In addition to the vitamin C, the NowMi lubricant gel contains vitamin E and Hyaluronic acid. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that repairs and protects the skin (for more information about the benefits of Vitamin E please click here). Furthermore, vitamin E further boosts the efficiency of the vitamin C, especially when it comes to protecting the skin from photodamage.

The NowMi personal vitamin C oxygen facial is unique since it stimulates the body to ‘oxygenate itself from within’. As opposed to traditional oxygen facials in which the oxygen is applied onto the skin using a spay gun, the NowMi treatment causes a chemical reaction within the skin that stimulates the body to send oxygen rich blood cells to the area. It does this based on a biological principal called the Bohr effect. The Bohr effect states that when the body needs to treat an area that has an excess amount of carbon dioxide (C0₂) it produces oxygen rich cells and sends them to the treatment area.

The NowMi bubbling tablet comprises of high concentration pure vitamin C as well as sodium bi-carbonate and citric acid. When the sparkling tablet is combined with the lubricant gel, a chemical reaction between the citric acid and the sodium bicarbonate occurs which creates micro-bubbles of C0₂ on the skin. Consequently, the body replies by sending oxygen to all layers of the facial skin. The oxygen helps the cells to best absorb the vitamin C, vitamin E and Hyaluronic acid and therefore the treatment results are superior.

The NowMi vitamin C oxygen facial treatment

With the NowMi personal vitamin C oxygenation facial you can:

Rejuvenate your skin
Reduce the appearance of fine lines
Improve textural imperfections
Firm your skin & tighten pores
Hydrate skin and restore volume
Renew glow and revitalize dull complexion

Conclusion:

Vitamin C does wonders for the skin. However, there is a challenge in applying potent vitamin C onto the skin. The NowMi treatment has overcome this challenge and nourishes the skin with pure vitamin C. Try it today and see the amazing results for yourself!

Facial Oxygenation

Posted on October 20, 2019October 31, 2019 by abigail

Why Oxygen?

Oxygen is essential for the health, maintenance and functioning of our cells in every part of our body. In the skin, oxygen helps create new cells and deal with everyday skin damage that is caused by pollution, toxins, sun damage, and aging.

Facial oxygenation improves circulation to the skin, increasing the flow of oxygen-enriched blood to the cells, boosting growth of collagen, and detoxifying the environmental pollutants from the skin. Through facial oxygenation the skin is rejuvenated, leaving it healthier and radiant.

Traditional Facial Oxygenation

Traditionally, facial oxygenation treatments are offered in specialty spas that use designated machines in a three stage treatment.

The first stage involves preparing the skin through deep cleansing and exfoliation. This preparation is important for removing any impurities such as dirt and grime from the skin. Sometimes facial steam is used during this stage to open up the skin pores.

During the second stage, the designated device, resembling an airbrush, applies high-pressurized oxygen infused with botanical, vitamin, mineral and nutrient extracts to the deepest layers of the skin on the face and neck. This feels like a blast of cold air and is completely painless.

Finally, a serum that is rich with supplements and vitamins is infused into the skin using the same device. It enriches the skin, improving its firmness and complexion, reducing inflammation and redness.

The facial oxygenation treatment can take anywhere between half an hour to an hour. Sometimes a mask is applied at the end of the process in order to provide further hydration to the skin.

Celebrities’ Favorite Facial Treatment

Many celebrities swear by facial oxygenation and consider it their biggest beauty secret for a glowing plumped-up skin look before any performance or red carpet appearance.

Madonna is the most famous and dedicated fan of facial oxygenation. She has an oxygenation machine in each of her six homes, and always travels with one, so that she can enjoy it anywhere she goes.

Other well-known celebrities who enjoy facial oxygenation on a regular basis are Victoria Beckham, Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry, Naomi Cambell, Jessica Biel, and Kim Kardashian, who all have their own oxygen machines.

Because these celebrities often spend much time on tour and airplanes, they often take their oxygen machines with them, and use them very frequently to keep their skin hydrated and young-looking.

The Unique Benefits of Facial Oxygenation

The unique benefits of facial oxygenation are many. In addition to facial oxygenation being painless, non-invasive, and non-medical, it does not cause any peeling, burning or prolonged redness. It does not require any harsh chemical peels, which means that people with sensitive skin can benefit from it without any detrimental side effects.

Facial oxygenation evens the skin tone, smooths fine lines, cleans the pores and increases elasticity. Furthermore, it is an excellent treatment for hyperpigmentation, reduction of acne and wrinkles, and hydrating any skin type.

NowMi Facial Oxygenation

The NowMi personal facial oxygenation treatment is an advanced, anti-aging treatment that offers all the benefits of the traditional facial oxygenation with a few unique features that bring your routine facial treatment to a whole new level.

The most remarkable feature of the NowMi Pro device is that instead of using external oxygenation of the skin, as used in traditional facial oxygenation, the NowMi facial treatment uses a scientific principal called the Bohr effect to stimulate the facial skin to oxygenate itself from within. The treatment uses an effervescent tablet that contains a high concentration of vitamin C, citric acid and sodium bicarbonate, which is combined with lubricant gel to create a chemical reaction that results in the formation of CO₂ micro-bubbles on the skin’s surface, creating a CO₂ rich environment. The body responds by sending oxygen (O₂) rich blood cells to the facial skin.

Once the treatment area is oxygenated, the skin is better able to heal and repair itself and regains natural glow. In addition, during the NowMi treatment, the skin is infused with pure vitamin C, E and Hyaluronic acid. The oxygenation process ensures that the vitamins are optimally absorbed by the body. These active ingredients help reverse the signs of aging and enable it to look its very best.

Another outstanding advantage of the NowMi facial oxygenation treatment is that it offers a home-use device at a spa quality level. This means that you can care for your skin in the convenience of your own home, on a regular basis, at reduced cost and greater comfort.

The NowMi personal facial oxygenation procedure is also fast, and can be performed within 5 minutes. The device itself is compact, portable and lightweight, which means that you can carry it wherever you go and treat yourself to a facial oxygenation whenever you like, just like a celebrity.

Why Settle for Less?

The many benefits of the innovative NowMi personal skin oxygenation device place it as the leading at-home facial oxygenation option for routine use. Clinical results have consistently shown that in addition to its unique features, the NowMi device delivers top quality immediate and long-term results that leave your skin healthy and glowing.

Anti-Aging Oxygen Facial

Posted on August 5, 2019August 6, 2019 by abigail

Although aging is a natural human process, it is expressed differently in different people, as well as in different organs, tissues and cells of the body. While the signs of aging of internal organs are hidden from the eye, the signs of aging skin are evident and clear for all to see.

Statistics clearly show that the US population is becoming older. As of November 8, 2018, the United States is estimated to have a population of 328,953,020 people. The median age of the total population is 38.1; the male median age is 36.8; the female median age is 39.4. Aging starts as early as age 25, whereas 68% of the US population are older than 25 years old and nearly 30% are older than 55 years old.

It is no wonder that the demands for anti-aging skin therapies is rapidly increasing. One of the best treatments to address this issue is anti-aging oxygen facial.

Facial skin aging

Facial skin aging results from internal and external processes. Internal skin aging is influenced by genetics, slower cell metabolism and hormonal changes. External skin aging processes are influenced by exposure to sun light, pollution, ionizing radiation, chemicals and toxins. Together these factors lead to the appearance of aging skin, especially on the facial skin area that is exposed to the sun. The skin becomes thin, wrinkled and dry. Aged skin typically shows spotted, deep wrinkles, laxity, dullness and roughness.

The main purpose of any anti-aging skin therapy is to achieve a healthy, smooth, glowing skin, free of age-spots. The outermost skin layer, the stratum corneum, is an important protector against premature facial skin aging. It protects the skin from dehydration, penetration of various bacteria, allergens, irritants, reactive oxygen species and radiation. In the dermis layer, it is important to stop the degradation of the skin’s primary structural components: collagen and elastin, as well as reduce inflammation by topical antioxidants.

What is anti-aging oxygen facial?

Anti-aging oxygen facials infuse the skin with active ingredients (vitamin C, E, and hyaluronic acid) and at the same time elevate the level of available oxygen to the skin cells. It is important to understand that without oxygen the skin cells are unable to fully use the active ingredients. Its like infusing more gas into a car engine without increasing the inlet flow of oxygen. Elevating the oxygen level in the skin is done either externally or internally. Externally, a pressured oxygen gas is sprayed on the skin, typically performed in a clinic, due to the large and expensive machine that is required. Internal skin oxygenation uses the body’s own biological mechanism, through using the scientifically and clinically proven Bohr Effect. In simple words, by creating an environment rich in CO₂ on the skin, the body sends more oxygen to the skin in order to balance the extra CO₂ levels.

The most important antioxidants are vitamin C and E. The two vitamins have a small molecular size enabling them to enter the skin quite easily. Vitamin C anti-aging effects in the skin have been proven to increase collagen production. The combined antioxidant effect of the combination of vitamins C and E is greater than when vitamin C is used alone. Vitamin E is soluble in fat. The anti-aging effect is reached by smoothing the skin and increasing the ability of the stratum corneum to protect the skin from dehydration. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a clear substance that is naturally produced by the body. Its main function is to retain water to keep the skin well hydrated. It has been proven that HA also plays an important role in wound healing.

How does the NowMi anti-aging oxygen facial work?

The recommended use of the NowMi anti-aging oxygen facial treatment is once a week. The treatment provides 4 simultaneous actions and takes only 5 minutes to do. The 4-in-1 actions are: exfoliation, oxygenation, nourishment, and skin protection.

Exfoliation

The effervescent tablet, which contains high concentration pure vitamin C, gently exfoliates the skin and removes unwanted dead cells, smooths the skin, and allows for the optimal infusion of active ingredients into the epidermis.

Oxygenation

The interaction between the gel and the vitamin C effervescent tablet creates micro CO₂ bubbles that activate a natural physiological response called the Bohr effect. The effect stimulates an oxygen rich environment in the treatment area.

Nourishment

The NowMi treatment nourishes the skin with pure vitamin C, vitamin E and Hyaluronic acid. Vitamin C has been clinically proven as an anti-aging and anti-inflammatory agent, as well as an anti-pigmentary agent. The vitamin E further enhances the effectiveness of the vitamin C, and combined with the Hyaluronic acid, helps the skin maintain its moisture and firmness.

Protection

Vitamin C is the most prevalent antioxidant in the human skin and, unfortunately, its quantity rapidly decreases with age. By replenishing the skin’s lost vitamin C supply, it is able to better protect against UV rays and other extrinsic factors such as pollution and smoking which damage and age the skin.

Is NowMi treatment clinically proven?

Yes, The NowMi treatment was tested in a clinical study performed by a third party GLP certified laboratory.

Immediate results were seen after the first treatment.
Compared to baseline, there was a 25.9% increase in facial skin smoothness after 6 weekly treatments, meaning that the facial skin looked younger by approximately 12 years.
