We are experiencing incredible growth! We thought 2012 would
be the biggest year in the history of iMaGe Skincare, and we were
right. As we look forward to 2013, we look forward to a year filled
with new products, new accounts, and new faces!
We’re not only experiencing an incredible growth in sales, but an
incredible growth in personnel. We’re proud to welcome a new
Chief Operations Officer, Kevin Patrick, to our team. We’ve also
added new faces to our education, Sales Management, and
International Affairs departments, as well as a graphic Design,
Marketing, Advertising and Public relations department.
We are also launching several new products this year. I’m so
excited to present a new line of sun protection, a new

fresh.Oxygen is essential to the life and health of every cell in our bodies, and seems to possess an extraordinary healing power. In clinical applications, oxygen therapy has been used to promote healing after cosmetic surgery, where its
success led to its adaptation for use in skin care. In the O2 Lift, oxygen is channeled to the deepest layers of skin to enable active elements to revitalize it from the inside out. Furthermore, the infusion of oxygen helps eliminate bacteria and remove toxins from the skin, which results in a complexion that does not merely look healthier, but is healthier.
This luxurious treatment infuses oxygen, plant-derived stem cells, peptides and a high concentration of enzymatic botanicals into the skin, leaving it luminous, refreshed and rejuvenated.

now that winter is over i really want to work on making my
skin glow. what should i tell my aesthetician so that she can
take my skincare treatments to the next level?
Winter’s dry cold air and short days can really take a toll on our
skin, leaving it dry, dehydrated, and dull. this is the perfect time
for you to begin a series of clinical resurfacing treatments to peel
away the years and get glowing! IMAge offers a variety of peeling
treatments from Organic to Medical Strength tCA and each can
be customized and optimized using one of our six enhancers.
for example, our 25% Hyaluronic enhancer deeply hydrates and
plumps dry winter skin. Our 25% retinol enhancer encourages
cell turnover, exfoliating away flakey skin, and our 25% Kojic
enhancer lightens age spots and hyper pigmentation leaving a
smooth, even complexion.
By adding our enhancers to any peel, serum, masque or crème
during your treatment, your skincare specialist is able to
customize your service and optimize your results.
So get ready…
get Set…
glow
is the main change in the hyaluronic filler an increase in
percentage? Can you explain the relevance of the short and
long chain hyaluronic?
the main update in the Hyaluronic is the increase to 18%. this
enables the product to act more like a true “filler” smoothing
any fine lines and wrinkles and priming the skin for smoother
make-up application. the long and short chains allow for
plumping of the surface of the skin, as well as deeper
penetration to hydrate the deeper layers of the epidermis.

DON’t SMOKeIt seems pretty simple right? You’d think with all of the education out there on
how damaging cigarette smoke is to our bodies that people would simply not
start smoking to begin with, right? tell that to the billion dollar tobacco industry
and you’ll probably get an arched brow to accompany a smug smile. According
to the Mayo Clinic, smoking can speed up the normal aging process of your skin,
contributing to wrinkles. And smoking doesn’t cause wrinkles only on your face.
Smoking is also associated with increased wrinkling and skin damage on other
parts of your body, including your inner arms. While the skin wrinkles may not
be reversible, you can prevent worsening of wrinkling by quitting smoking now.

they can only sit on the dead surface layers, not producing a change. on the

actually penetrate to your living tissue to really perform a change in your skin.

CHANgINg LIveS IN PeRUthe Care for Skin foundation led a team
of 17 medical personnel to Peru, offering
reconstructive surgery to children who have
suffered loss of skin due to accidents, tumors,
burns, scars or genetic abnormalities.
Dr. Marc ronert, a Board Certified plastic
and reconstructive surgeon, was among
the physicians who donated his time and
experience to the mission. “Utilizing my skills as
a plastic surgeon on patients who are unable to
afford necessary treatments is one of the most
gratifying moments in my profession. Often,
with simple reconstructive surgical procedures
we are able to change someone’s life within just
a few minutes. to not offer this to patients in
need would be unthinkable,” he said. Dr. ronert
is the President and Medical Director of IMAge
Skincare, a major contributor to the Care for
Skin foundation.
Upon arrival in Peru, the team was met with
approximately 130 patients, most under the
age of 5. Of the 130 patients, 70 were able
to receive treatment. “We have to triage the
patients and determine who we can operate on
with adequate time for follow-up while we are
there,“ Dr. ronert said.
For more information, please visit www.careforskinfoundation.orgIf you would like to donate to the Care for Skin Foundation, please call 561.791.2602 ext. 401.
founded in 2011, the Care for Skin foundation’s mission is
not only to provide reconstructive surgery to those in need,
but to donate money to like-minded organizations such as
resurge and Smiletrain, who coordinate medical missions
to third world countries where Board Certified physicians
perform surgeries on patients with cleft lips, burn wounds
and hand deformities, as well as other surgeries. the current
trip was carried out in partnership with resurge.
although the week in Peru was the first mission trip for the Care for Skin foundation, plans are already underway for similar expeditions in 2013.

what is your opinion on fillers; are they safe? are they practical?
Do you have a brand you suggest? is there any brand i should
avoid due to extreme side effects?
this is a great question and the answer is both yes and no. In my
personal experience and opinion, you should stay away from
permanent fillers because they can have serious side effects. the
temporary fillers, i.e. hyaluronic acid fillers, are very safe to use when applied
by an experienced person. In the US, there is no hyaluronic acid filler
approved by the fDA I would not recommend – so you are safe when you
ask for one of these types of fillers. If you want to be sure that the person
who is doing it is also experienced, you might want to ask for a board
certified plastic surgeon in your area.
hi Dr. Marc! in regards to facial plastic surgery, what is the best
protocol with iMaGe to enhance the healing process and provide
overall health for the skin?
We have a specifically designed “Post-treatment KIt” to be used
after any type of procedure. that kit contains a tremendous amount
of anti-oxidants, anti-inflammatory ingredients and botanicals to
speed up the recovery process.
in your opinion what would a “prep” consist of before laser,
peels, or surgery?
Prepping your skin enhances the results of chemical peels or laser
procedures. A good prepping regime always consists of glycolic acid.
the main goal is to exfoliate the upper layers of your skin, thinning
the stratum corneum (dead skin cells), so other active ingredients or high
energy like a laser can penetrate better. You also want to slow down your
melanocytes so lightening agents, natural or hydroquinone, should be used
to prevent post-inflammatory pigmentation.
what is the best way to get rid of broken veins from rosacea and
redness in my cheeks? i’m trying proactive now and it seems to
be helping. just wanted to see if there is anything else i can do.
rosacea is an inflammatory condition, so I recommend a tremendous
amount of anti-oxidants. that’s why we created our line called vital
C. It is specifically created for rosacea and sensitive skin. If you found
something that helps – great! If you do not feel it improves much, then it
would be a good idea to try the vital C line. Broken veins are not treated
with any crèmes, so I am not sure if Proactive would be helpful. If you talk
about real broken veins, then a laser treatment might be able to reduce
these veins effectively.

comments: Also I was very
surprised to fall in love with
IMAGE skin care’s organic
line, Ormedic. Usually I am
not a huge fan of organic
beauty products, because
they are not strong enough
for my oily skin, but the
Ormedic line works
brilliantly!
YOU SPOKE, THEy LISTEnED!
