MILLIE HAS A HULL LOTTA LOVE FOR SKINCEUTICALS PHYTO CORRECTIVE MASQUE
One of my favorite products is the Phyto Corrective Masque by SkinCeuticals. This amazing gel masque is an intensive calming botanical masque made with cucumber, thyme, and olive extracts. It's great for neutralizing temporary skin reactions from things such as sun exposure, dry weather, chlorine, salt water, retinols, facial extractions, and post-procedure.
The Phyto Corrective Masque calms and cools the skin on contact while restoring radiance and smoothness. With this product, you will see immediate and continued skin improvement. It is safe for all skin types and great for sensitive and dehydrated skin. Another thing I love is that this face mask can be applied as a leave-on, rinse-off, or overnight treatment.
To use, apply a generous coat to clean face, chest, or neck avoiding eye and lip area. Allow mask to remain on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse with cool water if desired. Use 2-3 times a week or as needed.
Pick up your SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Masque at the Skin Solution Store.
Get a Younger Looking Neck with Nectifirm Advanced
By: Alex Cook, RN
The neck area can be a problem area for many of us. Patients often complain of crepey skin, sagging skin, poor skin texture (chicken skin), and horizontal lines sometimes referred to as “tech neck”. As we age, collagen and elastin fibers naturally degenerate and the overlying skin loses its tone, no longer adhering to the soft tissue contours of the neck. This results in a less than youthful look.
Though there are many excellent modalities used to improve skin resilience and appearance at Hull Aesthetics, twice daily Nectifirm Advanced, a biotechnological anti-aging cream, is an exceptional product to help both the neck and décolletage area look firmer and younger.
Containing a combination of plant extracts and antioxidants, Nectifirm Advanced features an impressive list of active ingredients. These include eight distinctive peptides to boost collagen and elastin; algae extract and ceramides for a healthy skin barrier to maintain hydration and plumpness; bamboo, and English pea extract and glucosamine HCI, which work together to smooth skin and reduce the appearance fine, deep lines and wrinkles. Lastly, it has dihydromyricetin and vitamins C & E, powerful antioxidants to protect skin from stress, pollution, and daily exposure, while also giving skin a brighter and more even tone.
Who can benefit from Nectifirm Advanced? All skin types, especially those with visible signs of moderate to advanced aging. Using Nectifirm Advanced in conjunction with other treatments such as Exilis Ultra skin tightening procedures, fillers, and NovaThreads can help give you that firmer, younger looking appearance in no time!!
A “Hair-Raising” New System
By: Kendall Key, PA-C
Introducing the Hull Restorative Hair Growth System! I am so excited to have this new addition for the many patients that I see experiencing hair loss. The Hull Restorative Hair Growth System consists of a Replenish Shampoo, Restorative Conditioner, and the Rapid Growth Serum. This powerful combination works cohesively to reduce the DHT (dihydrotestosterone) levels within the hair follicles.
So, what does DHT have to do with my hair-loss? Well, simply put, after many years of research, it is thought that DHT is the main culprit in hair loss. DHT is a derivative of the male hormone testosterone. Testosterone converts to DHT with the aid of an enzyme and this then binds to your hair follicles making it difficult for healthy hair to survive.
This hair loss system directly attacks the conversion of testosterone to DHT at the site of the hair follicle resulting in reduced hair-loss and thicker, fuller, healthier hair. Many patients notice improvements in as little as 30 days!
But I'm sure it smells weird or leaves my hair greasy. NOPE! That was one of the first things I checked when I got my hands on it, because I know that if I didn't like the smell or texture after using it, most others wouldn't. I was pleasantly surprised by the serum and the fact that it absorbs quickly and fully and leaves no residue on the scalp. The shampoo and conditioner actually have no smell, so no worries there!
P.S. All patients that purchase the package of five scalp PRP treatments get this system as well as a 6-month supply of Viviscal Professional Supplements included with their purchase to help accelerate and maintain their results!
A Look at My Skincare Routine and My Favorite Sunscreen
By: Susie Reed, RN, CANS
Everyone knows my favorite skincare line is SkinMedica. I believe it is the best skincare line for my patients for anti-aging, as well as correction for the more mature skin. I often get asked what I use on my
skin. Well here is my routine...TNS Essential Serum, followed by Lumivive Antioxidant and finally
HA5 and Total Defense and Repair Antioxidant Sunscreen. These are all from the SkinMedica skincare
line and these products and efficacy are backed by science.
This month Sun Spot's featured product is SkinMedica Total Defense + Repair SPF 50+ (TD&R). We all
know (or we should know) sunscreen is the most direct way to prevent aging. SkinMedica TD&R is my
favorite to protect your face and body against harmful UVA/UVB rays and infrared waves. I mix a little
HA5 with mine every morning for that extra boost in my morning skincare regime.
So what is so special about TD&R? This broad-spectrum sunscreen features SOL-IR™, advanced
antioxidants that combat free radicals and boost your sunscreen's ability to shield your skin against sun
damage. It's lightweight and leaves no white residue behind, you can wear it with or without makeup for
daily sun safety. In addition to protecting skin, each application helps revitalize your complexion to
erase fine lines and wrinkles and even skin tone and texture. Renew your skin with this water-resistant
formula that wears for up to 80-minutes and reapply regularly for total coverage.
Earlier this year, I celebrated ten years at Hull Aesthetics. During this time, I have found my calling working with lasers and now offer a myriad of laser treatments to my patients. Learning more about these amazing machines has also taught me so much about the importance of following a basic skin care routine.
When I am treating patients, I am usually helping them correct things like hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and skin texture. Every single person is different and for you to find the routine that works for you means you have to peel back the layers and see what is underneath the surface of your skin.
Recently our Product Specialist, Audrey, began offering a free Visia Complexion Analysis to our patients. As someone who has personally benefited from this analysis, I strongly urge you to get one.
The Visia will scan your skin, looking at its strengths and weaknesses. Visia scans measure your skin pigmentation, pore size, porphyrins (evidence of bacteria lodged in pores), UV spots, sun damage, texture, and wrinkles. With this assessment of your skin, we can compare your skin condition within your peer group. As a provider, I use this information to help me develop a more targeted treatment program for your specific needs, while also tracking your progress and treatment outcomes over time.
What I love about this ability to track your progress is that, with the Visia, you will be able to view your own before and after pictures and see for yourself how your skin treatment plan is helping you.
Schedule your complimentary Visia Complexion Analysis with Audrey, our Product Specialist. At this one-on-one consultation, we will combine the Visia technology and assess your skin concerns to customize your treatment plan.
Missed Appointment Policy
At Hull Dermatology & Aesthetics, we are dedicated to our patient care and service. We try to contact all of our patients at least 8 hours before their scheduled appointment to remind them of the date and time. In the event that you are unable to keep a scheduled appointment, we request that you inform us by telephone at least 8 hours in advance. This allows us time to contact patients on our waiting list and offer the time slot to them. Our providers’ time is valuable as we always have an extensive waiting list of both new and established patients. Patients who do not notify us at least 8 hours before their scheduled appointment time will be considered a “no show” and will be assessed a $50 fee per 30 minutes scheduled.
Thank You!
We at Hull Dermatology & Aesthetics are thankful for all of our patients. To our existing patients, I say thank you. For our new patients that are just joining our family, I welcome each of you. My staff and I are dedicated to providing outstanding medical and cosmetic dermatology for the Northwest Arkansas area and beyond. Thank you for choosing Hull. Sincerely, Cheryl A. Hull, M.D.
