There are some simple things you can do to help those results last and get the most out of your plastic surgery in Beverly Hills.
5 Simple Steps
No matter your treatment, the following five simple steps will help you maintain those results. All it comes down to is making some basic lifestyle changes. Making these steps a priority will definitely go a long way to improving your life as well as maintaining those treatment results.Step One: Eat a healthy and well-balanced diet. This seems like a common sense suggestion but when life gets hectic, a healthy diet is often the first thing to go. A healthy meal is often sacrificed for the convenience of saving time by running through the drive-thru. However, maintaining a healthy and well-balanced diet will help you look and feel great. All those fruits, veggies, whole grains and lean proteins will help keep you on track and make following the other guidelines easier.Step Two: Keep your stress levels under control. Managing your stress can bring big dividends in all areas of your life. It certainly helps us to eat better and lots of uncontrolled stress can cause a variety of digestive and skin issues. You certainly don’t want to reverse all those great results you’ve just achieved so make sure you set some reasonable limits on your time and set a more realistic to-do list. It’s important to make time to do things you enjoy.Step Three: Don’t smoke. This also seems like a common sense suggestion but many people smoke in order to manage stress but we all know smoking is detrimental to our health on a variety of levels. If you’ve had a skin treatment, smoking will definitely impact the longevity of your results. Smoking actually narrows the tiny blood vessels in the outer layers of the skin, thus decreasing blood flow. The result is that your skin is depleted of much needed oxygen and nutrients. Smoking will ultimately make your skin look older and will contribute to many more wrinkles.Step Four: Avoid the sun. Protecting yourself from the sun is extremely important. Over exposure to the sun brings several health risks with it. Make sure you use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. You should also find a spot in the shade, especially between the hours of 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. as this is when the sun’s rays are the strongest. Cover your skin with protective clothing such as rightly woven long-sleeved shirts, pants and wide-brimmed hats.Step Five: Be gentle with your skin. If you’ve had a successful skin treatment, there are a few things you can do to maintain those successful results. Limit the amount of time you spend in a hot bath or shower and use warm, rather that hot water, as oils from the skin can be depleted. Avoid strong soaps that can strip the oil from your skin. Use shaving cream, lotions or shave gel before shaving to keep your skin lubricated. Gently pat your skin dry so some moisture does remain on your skin. And finally, moisturize your dry skin with a product that fits your skin type and contains an SPF.
