Lutronic LaseMD Post Procedure Products

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Oh happy Friday! Woo hoo - the weekend! Ever since we have gone back to the mega commute, I find I look forward to the weekend more than my son so I don't have to drive!



Now let's get into today's blog post - please reference yesterdays post here for the scoop on why I am talking about post procedure products to care for healing skin!

My first laser facial with Lutronic LaseMD is in my humble opinion, a success!  I am liking the tightening and more even skin tone on my face - though what I really love - is the neck. I have been wanting to address this neck for some time now, and well, now - it's had some attention addressed to it!  Not exactly where I want to see it in the long run, but a great start to a firmer more even skin tone.

Short version of a long moral store - WEAR SUNSCREEN APPLY DAILY AND ALL OVER!

See the products in the picture above? That's exactly what I have used this entire week to care for my skin - and I'm a fan of all of it!  It was a real comfort when I first met Cindy of Cosmetic Laser Solution and I walked into her laser treatment room and there were some old blog favorites of skin care sitting on the shelf to greet me.

I've been in Murad skincare for a decade though have deviated a bit here and there and tried other brands that were samples sent to the blog, such as PCA Skin ( oh how I love there masks and retinol!)  and Oxygenetics which has a light effervescent feeling day lotion that packs a powerful load of moisture into it!

I've recently really returned and enjoyed products from MyChelle and I swear by the reef safe mineral based (20% zinc oxide!) sunscreen which is what I need with this fresh skin!

Enjoy this video - walking you through the products and the process and the links below  the products is for you to look into if you are interested.

Lutronic LaseMD: Start to Finish My Laser Facial Experience

 Hi ya Gorgeous,
Today I get to share what I started last week! Lately it's been a whirlwind of activity, both as a filmmaker and in the beauty community as a blogger and makeup artist.

 I was invited by Lutronic to try their new facial procedure, LaseMD. The stars aligned and call it coincidence, kismet or mercury in retrograde - I just happened to be able to schedule pick up shots for a music video I'm working on, visit with the Lutronic LaseMD provider, Cindy of Cosmetic Laser Solutions and then also swing by the Aesthetic Everything Beauty Expo. Bada boom bada bing! It was a very busy weekend - yet everything worked out perfectly!

 Before we get into the video - here are the photos of the Lutronic LaseMD facial healing- from day one last Thursday to today.




Day 1 Post Procedure


 Day 2 Post Procedure

Today I am showing you photos and a video from start to finish of my first LaseMD laser facial with Cindy at Cosmetic Laser Solutions inside Scottsdale Skin Institute.

Lutronic reached out with an opportunity to try the procedure in return for an honest opinion of the experience.

Day 3 Post Procedure


Things to know - this was not painful. Not at all like the time three years ago that I was given a lovely gift of a Fraxel CO2 laser facial which was very painful and took 18 days to have my salsa face turn into a tomato face and from there, another full week before I wasn't red, just bright pink.  Yes I saw nice results though it took 6 months for it to show up.

That's not the case with the Lutronic LaseMD laser facial, it's really more of a combo spa/med spa/laser/facial/esteem enhancement treatment.

Day 4 Post Procedure

My skin immediately looked better, less dull, more vibrant and I noticed a bit of tightening in the neck - which is really the area I am convinced of right now. Don't get me wrong, in real life, it doesn't look like Madonna, but it doesn't look like Selena Gomez either.

Day 5 Post Procedure
I had some dryness and I was told about that. I grew a light fuzzy crust and that too was covered in the post operative care sheet - what I experienced was a light bit of itching and like a tattoo, I didn't dare scratch the itch! Instead, light tapping with clean hands to satisfy the fuzzy tingle.

Day 6 Post Procedure

I have cheated a bit and used the Dew Puff skin sponge to wash my face with to help defuzz the crust a little.  The Lutronic LaseMD laser facial never made scabs like the fraxel laser. I have a follow up post with all of the products I used for my post care. I would say that eating water filled foods, like iceberg lettuce, watermelon and cucumbers helped on the inside while I was treating the outside with PCA Skin ad Oxygenetics. 

I'm very please with the results and especially happy with the results I got with no downtime. I literally went to work the next day and if you only have an hour lunch break during the week you could enjoy this facial. From the time you fill out the paperwork to the time you are walking out of Cosmetic Laser Solutions could be an hour.

Note to you - wear a button up shirt and allow room around your neck. I didn't even think of that going in and needed to take my shirt off.  

I also recommend that you follow the post care instructions to the T - even if free champagne is available.  Life is about choices!

Now, here is the video for you - enjoy  the process - and if I can do it, so can you! Don't wait to take care of yourself and invest in you today! You are worth it!

Why Try A New Skincare? Meet PCA Skin

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy Monday! I love a Monday! I get so much accomplished on a Monday! Today is no different! I'm busy prepping for the American Film Market with several new projects that are ripe for distribution and then a product launch on a pet side project! Woot!

Today I have a skin care introduction to you for Arizona's own skincare brand, PCA Skin.


Why try a new skincare? Because I think the skin, like the hair, can build up a memory and tolerance to products and stop working as well as they did in the beginning. So, I'm testing a new serum, retinol and moisturizer from PCA Skin.


I found the product recommendations for my skin using the consultation tool on the website - but - felt like their recommendation for a moisturizer would be too light for me, so I got the heavier product in their line. Even that is light compared to what I am used to!

 I've got a video for you too! Enjoy!  So far, I'm loving how active the products feel on my skin meaning the retinol has me a bit pink and the serum gives a tightening feel.  Get your own to try by visiting their website: http://pcaskin.com

PCA Skin revitalizing mask: how to make the most of a holiday at home spa day

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Hello Monday!
Are you enjoying the Martin Luther King holiday today?

If you have the day off, now would be a good time for an at home spa day and nurture your winter skin!




I received a sample of the PCA skin Revitalizing mask and I love it! Anything papaya based is good for gentle and effective exfoliation!
