The Quest For “My Beautiful Bare Skin”
Looking
back from the other side of sixty, remembering the days when waking up
in the morning was an exciting adventure. Today it is a variety of
experiences depending upon the quality of my sleep and what is happening
on the inside as well as the outside.
Gone are the good ol’ days
when jumping out of bed, raring to start the day with a quick shower,
makeup, suiting up with stockings, pumps and a cup of coffee. Rarely
stopping for a lunch on the go, putting myself last. After decades of
hyper work, running around the city of Angels, my days of
non-stop-shopping for the latest in luxe home furnishing items for my
clients are over. My marathon body has run out of steam, never sitting
down until the end of the day until after my aerobics class when I would
crash.
These days I linger longer in bed, listening to positive
meditation audios on YOU TUBE and gather my thoughts, letting go of the
negative and reaching for better feeling experiences. It seems as if
many are still in shock about the Presidential election. Flooded
Facebook pages demanding a recount, while others are fighting for some
cause. As for me, I am working on uplifting my own spirits first.
Getting into the right frame of mind is the order of the day. When we
are in the right frame of mind we can align with our own
mind/body/spirit, inspire others and leave the rest to flow.
On
my quest for truth, beauty and becoming ageless, I find that beauty
flows from the inside out. When I am refreshed, balanced, in the
positive stream, connecting with the gratitude of the moment, I see
myself in a different light. And yes, lighting is most important, too!
The other night after a mid-night wake up, I rushed quickly past my
reflection in the bathroom mirror. Who or what I saw was frightening to
me. I saw the exaggeration of wrinkles that had taken up residence
around my mouth and now creeping further into my skin. I saw myself as
if I was an octogenarian! YIPES! Being a naturalist, I have not
succumbed to Botox or the other fillers for several years just as an
experiment to see what kind of aging would occur.
OK! I’ve had enough!
My
quest for becoming ageless, naturally is now weaning. I need help! I
have been experiencing the latest in leading edge beauty, writing for
decades and always in search of the best results without invasive
procedures.
I discovered a hidden gem last February when I was
invited to one of the Awards Show gifting suites at the tony Luxe
Beverly Hills Hotel. They were offering dozens of glam goodies and
beauty finds. Yet there was one person in the back with a wait list who
was doing a very unique facial. I discovered Susan Carlson, of My
Beautiful Bare Skin, who is located in Beverly Hills. We immediately
connected during my demo, and she shared her highlhy educated background
with me as a healer/aesthetician with a magic machine.
She
explained that “We specialize in giving skin treatments that truly heal
from within. Our Lift facials will substantially reduce deep lines,
wrinkles, puffiness and dark circles, tighten sagging skin on both the
face and neck, will diminish scars, fade brown spots and will
effectively treat acne and Rosacea. We offer body treatments to smooth
cellulite, detoxify the body and relieve pain due to arthritis or
trauma. It is also very successful for therapeutic stress reduction.”
While
this may not sound so unique, especially if you live in Los Angeles,
her instant face lift and body contouring are non-invasive yet have a
visible effect even after one treatment. While she recommends a series
with consistent follow up, even occasional visits are effective. She
personally works with a microcurrent machine that is specially attuned
to healing the body and also can be refinely calibrated for the face and
skin. The machine has the capacity for deep healing for wounds and
pain, but her ingenious combo can do wonders in one session. While in
her care, she also makes sure you are listening to positive healing
audio so you not only get the physical relief, but after an hour of
Wayne Dyer or your favorite guru, you are fully revived and feeling
great!
Our remarkable adaptive (cybernetic) facials and body
treatments use technology previously used extensively in the medical
field to heal injuries. This technology, microcurrent, affects the way
your skin cells actually function. It works on the very foundation of
your skin — muscles, blood and lymph — to repair, rejuvenate, nourish
and maintain your skin at its optimum state of health and functioning,
resulting in a more beautiful you, from the inside out.

The
Electro-Acuscope, packaged in an easily transportable case, emits a
low-level electrical current. Physical therapists, acupuncturists,
M.D.’s and other health professionals prefer it’s effectve treatment for
pain and athletic injuries. Carlson has experimented and discovered
that combining a healing machine that addresses medical aesthetics, can
yield a more comprehensive effect.
By adapting the Renaissance
machine for facial treatments (which is distributed by the same company
as the Electro-Acuscope) medical doctors, acupuncturists, cosmetologists
and physical therapists report they are seeing growing numbers of
clients who are pleased with the results.These “micro-current electrical
facials” are a natural solution to aging, and instead of just a pretty
facial, it is recommended for both facial rejuvenation and overall
health benefits. Not only is it used for an instant facelift, but for
deep relaxation and healing.
It
is advisable to have consistent treatments, and is considered safe and
effective by the AMA. Dr. Valentine Birds, a North Hollywood internist
remarked that “I had used the Electro-Acuscope for muscle spasm and
found that facial improvement to be a side effect” he says. ‘My theory
is that if it won’t hurt the patients and it can help them, I’m willing
to use it. It’s one thing to treat the disease and another to normalize
the physiology and make the person healthy, which the machines help the
body to do. I’m not satisfied with only diagnosing and treating the
disease. I’d rather improve the basic physiology, that way you don’t
have the disease problem. If you feel good, you’re going to look good.
And if you’re hurting, it’s going to show up in the face.”
The
best part is that after just one session you will feel a remarkable
energizing effect! So not only does it address the quest for ‘my
beautiful bare skin’ but it also has a treatment effect for better sleep
and relaxation!
Susan is born to be a healer. Her microcurrent facial is lifting, and
makes my skin flawless!!! She is extremely dedicated to her clientele,
and I feel lucky to be a client. I love how my skin looks years younger
than my true age!
