Acne- The Four Letter Word of Skin Care

Acne, the four-letter-word of the skin world, has been the bane of many people at some point in their lives. Teenagers exhaust shelves of products in drug stores to fight it and some women even suffer from it after they have a child. (Thanks, Mother Nature.) How to fight this nasty foe? A new method of combining experienced facial techniques with an 8-in-1 facial equipment machine is proving to be an effective technique in acne treatment.

Rita Page offers a new way of approaching the acne issue with her revolutionary method of combining skin analysis with tools for a full-scale treatment plan. Her experience in the beauty industry for the last 16 years has given her a broad perspective of effective skin care practices.

Page has been honored globally with as a CIDESCO Diplomat, the most prestigious aesthetic credential in the world. A graduate of the University of Arizona with a bachelor’s degree in Textiles and Chemistry, she studied at the Linda Seidel Institute for Corrective Makeup in Baltimore, MD. After polishing her makeup skills in California at the M.G. Westmore Academy of Cosmetic Arts, the most advanced makeup training in the country, she founded the Paramedical Clinic where physicians referred patients for postsurgical conditions, deformities and burn treatment.

Having been a beauty therapist and educator at both the Golden Door and Cal-a-Vie salons, Page brings her expertise back to the salon with this process that educates her clients how to best utilize the tool and tricks of the skin care trade to fight acne.

Once a skin analysis is complete, the tools are implemented. Using a steamer, with and without ozone or a galvanic current can be highly effective in treating acne. Combining these tools with a rotary brush, a vacuum, Lucas spray and CO2 spray enhance this process.

Traditional skin care comes into play next with deep pore cleansing, gommage, desincrustation, extractions, corrective cream and a mask. A post-treatment consultation is the last step in this procedure, verifying the client’s comfort level and final feelings about the results.

Many of the tools and methods Page implements are used separately by aestheticians or dermatologists in treating acne. She has found a method for combining them for the best possible results. With each acne condition having so many possible causes, knowing what tools you can best utilize to battle it could be the difference between success and failure.
