Our Annual Holiday Event
This month at La Belle Vie, we kick off the season with our two-day annual holiday event, November 9-10th! This is our seventh year holding the event, and although we need to do it virtually again this year, we don’t want you to miss a single thing. Here’s the scoop:
November 9th:
All services will be 25% off, and all products will be 30 percent off. Plus, Botox will be just $9 a unit. And if you’re a member, you can get it even cheaper for $8.50 a unit—WOW!
November 10th:
All our services will be 20% off, and products will be 25% off, with Botox at $10 a unit.
Since the event will be held virtually, you don’t need to come in to make a purchase. Instead, you can do it right over the phone from 10 am to 5 pm. Just give us a call—801-987-8384. Be sure to set a reminder, so you don’t miss out on these fantastic savings. Oh, and you’ll have until May 1, 2022 to use any services you purchase!
IPS for Sunspots
If you’ve been noticing dark spots or skin discoloration as you get older, you’re not alone. In fact, this condition—called melasma—affects at least five million people in the US. You can remedy some types of dark spots (such as hyperpigmentation) with ointments or creams. However, melasma doesn’t always respond that well to topical treatments.
At La Belle Vie, one solution we use for unwanted age spots is IPL, which stands for Intense Pulsed Light. This effective procedure uses light energy to target dark patches or spots on the face. Here are a few quick facts about the treatment:
• IPL is not a laser. It’s actually a high-intensity light that uses different wavelengths to address various skin conditions.
• IPL works best on lighter skin tones since light-skinned people have more contrast between the color of their skin and the pigments that cause discoloration.
• There is no downtime with IPL. Treatment generally takes less than 30 minutes, and you can get right back to whatever you were doing.
• With IPL, you may need more than one session. However, you will notice an improvement every time you come in for a treatment.
• Although there can be mild discomfort with IPL (stinging or burning sensations), most patients tolerate the procedure very well.
Does IPL Work for Other Things?
Yes! One of the primary benefits of IPL is that this treatment is highly versatile. Because it uses a range of wavelengths, it has multiple targets in addition to melasma. For example, IPL can also treat:
Spider veins or broken capillaries
Rosacea
Birthmarks or port wine stains
Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne
Freckles and brown spots
Unwanted body and facial hair
If you’re interested in IPL treatments, be sure to contact our office to set up a consultation.
The Importance of Planning Ahead for Aesthetic Treatments
It’s essential to plan any aesthetic procedures you are considering well in advance. Depending on the treatment, you could experience redness, bruising, swelling, or flaking for a week or more after your treatment.
Everyone wants to look their best for the holidays, but the reality is that some treatments make you look worse before you look better. The last thing you want right before a holiday party or event is to worry about your complexion. If you’re planning on attending a gathering and want to put your best face forward, schedule your treatments with these timelines in mind:
Microneedling: 7-10 days
Microdermabrasion: 3-7 days
Botox and Dermal Fillers: 7-14 days
PDO Thread Lifts: 7-10 days
Chemical Peels: 10-14 days
Profound Skin Tightening: 4-7 days
What if I’m Running Short on Time?
If your event is right around the corner, but you still want to do something that will give you a fresh and glowing complexion, don’t panic. We can still help you get great results with dermaplaning, masks, facials, and other treatments that brighten, hydrate, and purify your skin. Contact us for more information.
