Can face creams keep your skin looking younger?

 Anti-ageing is big business. It's hard to turn on the television, browse online or flick through a magazine without coming across an advertisement for a face cream that promises to wipe years off your face.

But beyond the hype is there any quality scientific evidence to suggest that using face cream will stop your skin from ageing?

The short answer is no, says Associate Professor Stephen Shumack, president of the Australasian College of Dermatologists.

There's no evidence from any large peer-reviewed study to back up the anti-ageing claims made by makers of skin creams, he says.

7 Things Everyone Gets Wrong About Laser Tattoo Removal

Image
Hello All, My relationship with tattoos goes way back. I have been getting them for years now. However, every once in a while I feel like changing the design a bit. So I talked to my artist about a cover-up. He told me that it would be better to go for fading with the help of laser therapy so that the new design gets highlighted. However, I was concerned about the pain and scarring rumours that I had heard over the years. Anyway, I met with a laser technician and he told me that these were all myths and there was no scarring and only a little discomfort during the procedure. I got to know a lot about the treatment and thus am sharing an article that will help you clear your doubts. https://www.freshskincanvas.com.au/7-things-everyone-gets-wrong-about-laser-tattoo-removal/

However, down the line, I started hating the vibrant and in-your-face colours. I wanted to get rid of them, but the creams did not seem to work. So, I decided to visit a laser skin clinic. However, I was sceptical about the ink colours since there were too many. I was told it will be a challenging process and will take time. But I got the results I wanted. Colours can impact the treatment and here is an article that will describe it in detail.  https://www.freshskincanvas.com.au/what-colour-tattoo-is-hardest-to-remove/
