Cellulite Treatment

Cellulite - it may be a sensitive issue, but cellulite treatment (or cellulite reduction) is a key concern for many people, particularly for us women. For those who don’t know, cellulite is a condition where the skin in the legs, abdomen, and pelvic region becomes dimpled. This is commonly referred to as “orange peel syndrome”.

Cellulite occurs at any age after puberty, and though women are affected to a far greater degree, it does affect both sexes. Furthermore and contrary to popular belief, cellulite has nothing to do with being overweight. However, the diet factors that contribute to cellulite do also contribute to becoming overweight. With cellulite being the kind of condition that can affect confidence and body image, cellulite treatment is a real priority for many women.

Cellulite

“Cellulite” is not a medical term, rather the commonly used name for collections of fat that push against the connective tissue beneath a person’s skin, which causes the surface of the skin to dimple, pucker and look lumpy. Medical authorities agree that cellulite is simply ordinary fatty tissue.

Strands of fibrous tissue connect the skin to deeper tissue layers and also separate compartments that contain fat cells. When fat cells increase in size, these compartments bulge and produce a waffled appearance of the skin.

It is widely accepted that the difference between male and female fat cells is also the reason behind why cellulite is more prominent in Women. In simple terms, a woman’s connective tissues are very inflexible, so as females gain weight their fat cells expand, and tend to bulge up towards the surface of the skin.

Poor diet, bad circulation, sluggish digestion, intake of toxins and fluid retention can all also act as a barrier to those who are trying to get rid of cellulite.

Remove Cellulite

Treatments like liposuction (surgery to remove fat) and mesotherapy (injection of drugs into cellulite) are either expensive or may produce only temporary improvement. Many doctors even warn that liposuction is not an effective treatment for cellulite because liposuction is designed to remove deep fat instead of cellulite, which is close to the skin.

Scientia’s new anti cellulite therapy comes in the form of the very successful Scientia Derma Roller. Cellulite reduction is gradual, achieved in the privacy of home. It costs considerably less than alternative treatments and is a method of cellulite removal which works in harmony with your body, as opposed to taking away from it.

Cellulite Cream

Using the Scientia Derma Roller can also boost the effectiveness of anti cellulite creams. It allows the cream to penetrate the upper layer of skin, increasing the effectiveness. For an example, absorption of vitamin C cream has been shown to increase by up to 40 times after using a derma roller!

It is the combination of modern science and manufacturing in conjunction with ancient Oriental acupuncture techniques which gives the Scientia Derma Roller the unique way in which to tackle the reduction of cellulite.

Wrinkle Treatment - Formation and Removal

For many people, wrinkles are a part of everyday life. But if you are looking into wrinkle treatment, it is important to understand how wrinkles are formed - and for that we need to understand how our skin is constructed. There are many layers in the skin; however it can be generally divided into three main parts.

• The outermost layer everyone can see, called the epidermis - this contains skin cells, pigment, and proteins.
• The middle layer, called the dermis - this contains blood vessels, nerves, hair follicles, and oil glands
• The innermost layer, called the subcutaneous layer - This contains sweat glands, some hair follicles, blood vessels, and fat.

Each layer of the skin contains connective tissue with collagen fibres to give support and elastin fibres to provide flexibility and strength.  The following video explains exactly how wrinkles are formed and how you can remove them.

Wrinkle Formation

Younger skin tends not to show wrinkles as it does an excellent job of stretching and holding in moisture. The elastin in it keeps it looking and feeling young, along with the collagen protein in the dermis which also assists in preventing wrinkles.

However, over time, the dermis loses both its collagen and elastin, so the skin gets thinner and has trouble getting enough moisture to the epidermis. In addition, the fat in the subcutaneous layer that gives skin a plump appearance also begins to disappear. Overall, this affects the epidermis layer causing it to begin sagging and forming wrinkles.

These changes in the connective tissue which reduce the strength and elasticity are known as elastosis and is especially pronounced in sun-exposed areas - and also with individuals who smoke.

Wrinkles and Aging

There isn’t a specific age when people suddenly get wrinkles: Even young people in their 20s begin forming wrinkles, particularly around their eyes (called “crow’s feet”) from squinting or spending too much time in the sun.

Some more fortunate people may well be in their 50s or 60s before they begin to form their first lines. This is usually because they have taken good care of their skin, although it is also largely dependant on genes. However it happens to all of us eventually as a natural part of the aging process.

QUESTION? What do scars, wrinkles, stretch marks and uneven skin have in common?

ANSWER: A lack of collagen! If your body would produce more collagen then you wouldn’t get them. Using a Scientia Derma Roller offers nature a helping hand by encouraging collagen production in the skin, which helps prevent or reverse their formation.

Wrinkle Treatment and Anti Aging

There are ways of holding back and even reversing this aging process by taking advantage of the way our skin behaves under certain conditions. Our skin is designed to heal itself naturally and our Derma-Roller is designed to take advantage of this fact - artificially stimulating this natural ability of the skin to generate the building blocks of younger, tighter skin. The Scientia Derma Roller helps to boost collagen production by creating a painless perceived trauma to the upper two layers of the skin by opening the pores. This stimulates increased blood flow / nutrients, and the increase of collagen within the skin reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines - all without causing any real damage in the way that laser treatment, chemical peels or micro dermabrasion does.

The second major benefit is that because the pores of the upper layer are temporarily opened (for about an hour), creams and oils are able to be absorbed far more effectively. This boosts their effectiveness by up to 40 times. The skin is, after all, your body’s natural barrier to the outside world and is designed to keep external substances out.

Getting Rid of Wrinkles

Removing wrinkles has never been more cost effective: The Scientia Derma Roller has given thousands of individuals the opportunity to finally slow / reverse the aging process without the need for wrinkle surgery or other expensive treatments. We are so confident that it works, we offer a full money back guarantee. Check out the rest of the site for information on how the Scientia Derma-Roller can assist with other skin related problems.

Hair Loss Treatment - The Facts!

Hair Loss Treatment Video

Take a look at the hair loss treatment video below for detailed information on the causes of hair loss, how common it is and how it can be treated.

How common is hair loss?

Hair loss and a receding hairline are a sign that age is taking its toll on our bodies. For men, there is a very good chance that it’s only a matter of time before you start to notice that your hairline is receding. For 20% of men, male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) starts as early as puberty. They will probably have extensive hairloss by the age of 30 or even younger. For them, male pattern baldness is extremely rapid and extensive.

For a further 60% of men, the hair loss process is more gradual, and starts later on in life. Regardless of the time frame however, near total baldness across the majority of the head areas affects most of the male adult population.

Female Hair Loss

Hairloss for men is more socially acceptable. Women on the other hand, often face a more traumatic experience from unexpected hair loss. While early adolescence and the 20s are potential problem times for women susceptible to generic hair loss, menopause is an equally critical time.

Hair Growth

The rate of hair growth is 3mm per week (faster than any other part of the body except bone marrow).

This process of hair loss and hair regrowth is continuous and natural - it is only when daily hair loss greatly exceeds this rate that an unnatural condition may be present. The human head has an average of around 100,000 hair follicles, which can each produce about 20 hairs in a lifetime

Does hair colour make a difference?

People with red hair have 25% fewer scalp hairs than those with brown hair; whilst those with blond hair have 25% more scalp hairs and those with brown hair. This fact may account for the belief that men with red hair are more likely to go bald than anyone else.

Normally, this would be an ample amount of hair for one person, if it weren’t for many factors, including particularly D.H.T. or Dihyrotestosterone.

DHT - A Factor in Male Hair Loss

This is a powerful hormone in our bodies, which can adversely affect the hair on our head. It is very important for a person to have proper nutrition to maintain hair. When DHT reaches the hair follicles and dermal papilla, it tends to prevent proteins, vitamins and minerals from providing the necessary nourishment to sustain life in the hair of these follicles. Due to this, the hair follicles tend to reproduce at a slower rate and this in turn either shortens the growing phase of the hair follicles or lengthens its resting stage.

This can result in a shrinking of the hair follicle, which makes hair growth more difficult and makes hair more vulnerable to falling out.

Other Hair Loss Factors

In addition to the chemical effects of D.H.T. other factors influence hair growth. Poor nutrition, stress and old age also have an adverse affect on the ability to reproduce hair at a fast enough rate.

Hair Loss Treatment, Prevention and Hair Loss Products

If you want to reverse or prevent hair loss, what can be done?

Well, there are a lot of treatments available from creams to Hair Transplants - many are quite costly, and all achieve mixed results.

The Scientia Derma Roller is a revolutionary device that uses traditional oriental acupuncture techniques to enhance the skins’ natural healing abilities. It promotes increased blood flow to carry nutrients to the hair follicles as well as boosting the effectiveness of creams and lotions such as the very popular regain.

Is the Derma Roller Just used to Stop Hair Loss?

Of course, the Scientia Derma Roller can assist a much wider range of skin related problems. It’s gentle action stimulates the skin to return to its former healthy state by increasing collagen production in the skin, increased blood flow and enabling skin care products to penetrate and nourish much more effectively. As hair loss products go, it is very versatile.

How to use a Derma Roller - Derma Roller Instruction Video

Dermaroller Instructions

There are two methods of use for the Scientia Derma Roller. One version involves the use of Topicaine Gel to numb the area, followed by more aggressive use of the Scientia Derma Roller once per week. The second alternative, involves using the device with slight pressure up to 5 times per week. Using the device gently gives a tickling feeling and is not painful - although your face is more sensitive to it than your body.

Neither method should draw blood. You may find a temporary reddening of the skin for an hour or so after treatment and it can give a sensation similar to mild sunburn. We recommend the use of sunscreen / sunblock after use.

Establish a Sterile Environment:

Please ensure that you wash your hands (and the area to be treated) thoroughly prior to using the Derma Roller. Dry with a clean towel. Using disinfectant, clean your treatment table and lay out the following items: Scientia Derma Roller, tube of Topicaine Gel, (if used), antibacterial cream, a bowl of iced water with a washcloth in it, a clean towel, some paper towels, a glass containing some disinfectant, a good quality face / body moisturiser and a timer.

Face and Body Treatment:

If using the Scientia Derma Roller on your face, do not use on the eyelids or lips. Wipe off the excess Topicaine Gel (if used) with a paper towel. Roll the Scientia Derma Roller over the area in question several times in different directions. 4 Rolls vertically, horizontally and each diagonal is more than enough to stimulate collagen formation in the skin. Do not press too hard, as this is not necessary for excellent results.

If you use the numbing gel and are more vigorous with the Scientia Derma Roller, you may experience a reddening and rawness of the skin for up to a couple of days after use. If you are more gentle, but use the device regularly, the same results can be achieved with much less trauma to your skin. Reddening only lasts for a few minutes.

For hair loss, thinning hair or grey hair:

Each morning / night, after showering and washing your scalp, dry well with a clean towel. Roll the Scientia Derma Roller over the scalp in one direction (and not back and forth). Apply 1ml of 5% Minoxidil (which should be available from your local Pharmacy) to balding areas and massage into the scalp thoroughly. If you notice the scalp flaking after a few days, simply rub the dead skin away whilst shampooing your hair. Treat no more than once per day, 5 times per week.

Skin Care After Use of the Scientia Derma Roller

After use, wash the treated area with cold water, dry the skin gently and apply cream. If you have used the numbing gel, use the antibacterial cream first, shortly followed by a quality moisturiser. If used gently, without the numbing gel, simply go straight to the quality moisturiser – preferably one containing Vitamin C and E. Using the Scientia Derma Roller greatly increases the absorption of these nutrients. Visit our online ordering page to buy cream online.

Instructions: Care of your Scientia Derma Roller:

When you have finished using the device, rinse the roller under hot running water. If you have used the roller with numbing cream, stand head first in the half full glass of disinfectant for approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour (but no longer). If you only used the roller gently, you need only disinfect the device on a weekly basis. Shake off the excess liquid and stand on a clean towel to dry. Please do not put the device away while it is still wet. When it is completely dry, replace the plastic cap and store the roller in the plastic tube provided. Please try to keep the case clean and store somewhere safe so that the device cannot be damaged between uses.
