Celebrities appear to have discovered the secret to almost-eternal youth - after all it's part of their job to look their very best and they do have access to the best products and skin care experts in the world.
According to Diane Aiello, owner,
Glam Lounge, one of their secrets for smooth, line-free skin is available to us all - the Intraceuticals Rejuvenate Infusion treatment.
Madonna was the first celebrity to call attention to this transforming treatment, and she retains Michelle Peck, the Beverly Hills facialist, full-time to provide treatments for her at her home or on tour.
Other celebrities like Eva Longoria and the cast of Sex and the City rely on these treatments before the red carpet and before the cameras roll.
So what is this miracle treatment and how does it work?
Intraceuticals Rejuvenate Infusion is a non-invasive treatment that targets fine lines, wrinkles and dramatically enhances overall hydration.
It harnesses three powerful serums for dramatic results including hyaluronic acid, pure vitamins A, C, D and E, and other age fighters in a delivery system of pure hyperbaric oxygen to achieve instant and dramatic results.
Unlike other oxygen treatments that are used at the end of a facial to kill bacteria and provide some hydration the Intraceutical Rejuvenation treatment is the only system that uses pure hyperbaric oxygen combined with key anti-aging ingredients for the entire treatment.
Aiello says the instant results last for up to seven days but the benefits of the facial will help improve skin for weeks.
For the most optimal anti-aging results the facials are best done in a series of six, one per week for six weeks, then maintained once each month.
But many clients do these treatments before a big event such as weddings, black-tie events and holiday parties for instant results.
This facial results in a marked and visible improvement after just one treatment, Aiello says, softening and reducing lines and wrinkles, and making skin plumped, hydrated and more firm.
For further line-smoothing results Atoxelene Serum can be added to any treatment.
Aiello says this serum is often called a topical Botox for its ability to specifically target expression lines and provide increased firmness.
It contains lightweight hyaluronic acid and a powerful combination of vitamins and antioxidants in addition to Argireline.
Glam Lounge was one of the first spas to bring Intraceuticals to the Valley over two years ago and offers a full 60-minute facial protocol or a 30-minute edited version.
