super all-over anti-agers 2 eyelash conditioning Aesthetica, Dallas,Texas With age-related hair loss comes sparse, brittle eyelashes. Though lash extensions may be helpful for some, your older clients would likely be thrilled to have their own natural eyelashes back. You can help them promote regrowth on their own with this take-home product, a conditioner that helps make lashes look longer and fuller. (Listed below are the steps they should follow.) A spokesperson for Dr. Warren J. Katz, medical director at Aesthetica, says clients have seen “noticeable improvement” with the RevitaLash product. Some spas even have clients use it on sparse or uneven eyebrows. To promote retail sales, consider packaging RevitaLash with a make-up or brow shaping service. product summary: Thin, missing eyelashes are not only a nuisance, they are difﬁcult to remedy. This breakthrough in natural lash enhancement is a serum that actually increases lash length and thickness. 1. Start with a clean, dry face. 2. Once a day, at home, apply a thin line of RevitaLash Eyelash Conditioner to the base of your upper eyelashes, as though you were applying eyeliner. Only a small amount is needed. 3. If you are applying other lotions or make-up, wait ﬁve minutes after applying RevitaLash to do so. 4. According to Aesthetica, use once a day without fail for several weeks for best results. It’s not necessary to apply more than once a day. 5. Though you may notice new growth within the ﬁrst few days, full results will be obtained in three to 10 weeks. time: a few minutes per application price: $150 per tube 3 hand rejuvenating Spa-Go Salon and Day Spa,Aiken, South Carolina For the past few years, LED light systems have been used to treat aging on the face. Now, Revitalight has developed a HandSpa to do the same for this often-overlooked (but very noticeable) body part. “The light helps stimulate collagen growth, even tone and leads to tighter, smoother skin,” says spa manager Giselle Bianco. Sun spots and the appearance of veins are minimized and, she adds, the light may even ease arthritis pain. The best part? No technician is needed to perform the service and results are evident after the ﬁrst session. Clients can opt for HandSpa before or after a manicure. Or, for optimal results, Spa-Go recommends a series of six weekly treatments for $125. service summary: Reduce the appearance of ﬁne lines and age spots on hands. See results after a few short sessions. Quick and easy, with no downtime. 1. If the service is post-manicure, ensure clients’ hands are clean and dry. 2. Open top of HandSpa and have client place hands on a paper insert in the machine. Inserts are disposable for sanitary reasons. 3. Lower top of machine and start the LED light.The emitted light will be red, but should not be hot. 4. Each session will last for 10 minutes. When finished, clients can engage in normal activities with no recovery time needed. 5. Clients should wait one to two weeks before next HandSpa appointment as overuse is counterproductive. time: 10 minutes price: $25 R 44 renewprofessional.com may/june 2008 http://renewprofessional.com
