The Beauty Industry being such a wide market of services and products include providing for the care of our skin, hair, selling of perfumes and cosmetics (“What is the Beauty Industry?”2014) and now developing more extensively into basic cosmetic surgery and treatments, now gives society a big opportunity to pamper and nourish themselves in more extensive ways. Throughout this essay, the branches of dermatology and dermal therapies will be explained; common skin disorders and specifically a treatment called ‘Ultrasonic Peeling’ and how it can potentially help with skin disorders imposed today will be explored and described in detail. After the investigation of what Ultrasonic Peeling is and how it works, I will also state my opinion on how well I think the treatment benefits its users, give my evaluation if I would consider using it, what I think the positives and negatives are and in scenario, assess whether it is a treatment that more salons should consider offering.
The first known use of dermatology was established in 1819 and only in the 1930’s did its practice become more widely accomplished, known and sought after. (“Dermatology” 2014) Since then it has extensively evolved and changed and been able to provide services for women and men around the world. Originally being a part of the medicine field can now be considered a division of the beauty industry due to availability of services and treatments for aesthetic, pampering purposes, rather than just originally founded for medical issues of resolving skin disorders and diseases. Dermatology being defined as ‘a branch of medicine dealing with the skin, its structure, functions and diseases’ (“Dermatology” 2014) now offers many professions one being a dermatologist, whic...

Clients with oily, acne prone skin types should maintain regular treatments of 1 to 2 times weekly and eventually once a week to maintain and prevent further acne and for sanitizing the skin. Other clients with mature skin should maintain a regular treatment of once weekly to maintain plumpness in the skin and to help with the appearance with fine lines and wrinkles.

When microdermabrasion removes the outer layer of skin the body then goes into a healing mode that promotes the making of new healthier cells. Microdermabrasion is like when one sustains an injury to his skin and the body sends treatment molecules to heal the damage. Mariane Fernandes conducted an experiment with the aim to evaluate the effects of microdermabrasion on skin rejuvenation. Fernandes stated in her article “Effects of microdermabrasion on skin rejuvenation” in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy that “Microdermabrasion treatment promoted skin rejuvenation through an increase in skin thickness due to an increase in epidermal thickness and collagen organization” (Fernandes 26). Acne weakens and thins the skin epidermal layers, causing acne scars. Microdermabrasion heals the weak, thin, and fragile skin, which makes the skin smooth and more resistant to other damaging conditions. Doctor Bruce M. Freedman an aesthetic plastic surgeon and assistant professor of plastic surgery at Georgetown University also analyzed the dermatological changes associated with microdermabrasion in “Clinical and histologic changes determine optimal treatment regimens for microdermabrasion” in the Journal of Dermatological Treatment. Freedman’s experiment also yielded results of an increase of epidermal thickness
As the process of menarche that transitions a child into a young woman begins and their bodies become more visible and exposed, so do the problems of becoming a young adult. Having perfect clear skin wasn’t always an epidemic for young adolescents. The desire to be beautiful was not always a priority and of the many body projects talked about by Brumberg, skin care was really the first to be supported by middle class parents. Having clear skin was of great social and cultural trend of the time. During this era when blemishes indicated to society that acne was a sign of poverty and uncleanliness, as well as displayed signs of promiscuous sexual behavior mothers did everything in their power to make sure that their youths received the proper face

Bowe and Alan C. Logan briefly skimmed the effect of acne on an individual’s physiological state. Treatment of severe acne with Isotretinoin was monitored in anticipation of lowered depressive symptoms (Bowe 2011). According to the Guideline of care for the management of acne vulgaris, compiled by Andrea L. Zaenglein (co-Chair) and respective authors, complementary therapies and approaches include chemical peels and light activated laser treatments: potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) and photodynamic (PDT). As per the guidelines, the PDT process begins with the application of aminolevulinic acid to the site containing acne for time periods ranging from 15 minutes to three hours. The aminolevulinic acid is then taken into the pilosebaceous duct by sebocytes and activated to manufacture oxygen (Zaenglein 2016). P. acne is an anaerobic bacteria, meaning that it does not contain the necessary enzymes needed to break down oxygen. Forced exposure to oxygen will damage and kill the
Erbium or YAG laser which is of precise wave length penetrates into the skin. As the scattering of the YAG lasers are less, the normal skin is left unaffected.
Acne Vulgaris is one of the most common and recognized skin diseases. This disease is mostly found in young adults, but can occur throughout all age groups. It can also manifest anywhere on the skin taking different forms. Its unfavorable appearance can lead to self-esteem issues in all who are affected. This can also play a burden on economic issues in attempts to solve the problem. Everyday lives for those with the disease can be a struggle. Many factors come into play when speaking of the causes of acne. These factors include age, lifestyle, skin-type, as well as others. Many treatments are available for those who suffer, but when it comes to different skin types it’s hard to make a match. Acne is predicted to make an increase in the future

In discussion, it were suggested that the individual him/herself, should approach the dermatologist to do skin checkup, and get suggested the right skin care and beauty products; and the products should be avoided for any skin allergies. This is a better way where the consumers will have a better idea of what needed by their skin and they can consider this when buying beauty products and also to avoid overspend. The consumers also should check for the review of users of the beauty products they planned to buy and visit the government website to check the registered and certified beauty products; and also to report the uncertified one for the government to take action. It will make people aware of brands that do follow the rules set by government and have less side
