1. HAIR PRODUCTS

Hair serums and sprays may be good for your hair, but they’re a definite trigger for the skin. Pore-clogging oils found in many hairstyling products can trigger acne-prone skin. If you are concerned that your hair products are the cause, be diligent about avoiding skin contact with hair products.


2. TOUCHING YOUR FACE
For acne breakouts commonly found on the chin, temples, or neck, pay attention to how you sit at work. Frequently touching the face or neck causes bacteria and oils to transfer from the hands to the face, leading to acne breakouts.


3. FOODS
Foods that may be causing your breakouts could be chocolate, cocoa, high-glycemic foods, and dairy. Each of these could cause the body to produce more sebum, leading to oily skin and clogged pores.


4. TOO MUCH PHONE TIME
There are so many bacterias that gather on your phone. Sanitizing it using a tech-friendly wipe is a must to avoid acne breakouts and irritation due to phone time.


5. OVERNIGHT SKINCARE PRODUCTS
Acne spot treatments run the risk of dehydrating skin, causing further irritation and acne breakouts. Avoid overusing acne treatments in hopes of an overnight solution; a minimum of 30 days is needed to see a real impact based on skin’s cell turnover.


6. SMOKING
There are multiple negative impacts smoking has on the skin, and acne is one of them. Nicotine can cause the cells receptors in the skin to go into an overdrive mode, where the pores will tighten and lead to excess sebum buildup.


7. LAUNDRY
If you are experiencing acne breakouts on the body, consider what’s being added to the washing machine. Harsh detergents often contain chemicals that may cause skin irritation.


8. SUN EXPOSURE
The UV rays cause the skin to increase oil production in hopes of regaining moisture, leading to more breakouts.


9. PILLS AND SUPPLEMENTS
Prescriptions and over-the-counter medications that contain androgens, iodides, and corticosteroids are often linked to adult acne breakouts. Consider alternative or naturally-sourced treatments.


10. BEARD BRISTLES
Romantic partners can often be the cause of acne breakouts, particularly if a beard is involved. Sharing towels, pillows, and kisses can all cause increased bacteria levels and oil production, leading to more breakouts.

For an added boost to any acne-fighting regimen, look for the Dual Light Acne Treatment using the an IPL-based device that uses both blue and red light, which work together to kill acne-causing bacteria and heal inflammation. The result is a simultaneous healing of existing breakouts as well as preventative measures for future acne.

Ditch the SPANX

Going to an event or on a date is a great opportunity to break out that little red dress or outfit that’s been hiding in the back of your closet. Instead of relying on body-shaping undergarments or SPANX to feel comfortable in those more fitted pieces, consider opting for a more reliable solution to smoothen out the muffin tops and flanks area.  The newest trend in liposuction today is laser liposuction ; the least invasive method of liposuction available in aesthetic surgery. For men and women considering lipo, staying awake during their procedure gives patients a new option when it comes to body sculpting. Unlike other forms of liposuction that require full general anesthesia, Laser liposuction uses a combination of sedatives and a local anesthetic so patients can feel comfortable with less downtime than traditional liposuction method. During the consultation, your surgeon will determine if you are a good candidate for this minimally invasive procedure and will answer all your questions. Take the first step to feeling good in your skin again. For a complimentary consultation about laser lipo, contact Dallas Laser & Vein Clinic in Dallas, TX.

Tips for Women with Thinning Hair

By 7143900825 • April 1, 2026
The American Academy of Dermatology reports that more than 40% of women will experience noticeable hair loss by the age of 40. While hair thinning treatments for women is not a new occurrence in the aesthetics field, in more recent years, innovative technologies have opened up more options to women, meaning you no longer have to rely on a certain hairstyle or updo to hide those thinning spots. Hair restoration services for women are beginning to rise and news regarding treatments is slowly starting to spread. The female hair loss treatment market is complex, making it an intimidating area to research. Recommended treatments are typically dependent on the cause of female hair loss, the health of the patient’s donor hair, and the patient’s targeted results. There is an increasing trend in PRP scalp injections for treating hair thinning in females. PRP (Platelets Rich Plasma) therapy for hair loss relies on growth factors drawn from your own blood to stimulate follicle growth. Blood is taken from your arm, spun in test tubes in a centrifuge to separate red blood cells from the plasma that contains platelets rich in growth factors—the molecules that signal to follicles to stop resting and start growing—and the plasma is then injected into the scalp in the areas where hair thinning is occurring. Multiple treatment sessions are recommended for optimal results. Furthermore, while the treatment may be used alone, studies suggest PRP therapy may pack a more potent punch when used in conjunction with stem cells derived from the embryo umbilical cord. This combination ( PRP+Stem Cells) is way more potent and effective than the stand-alone PRP treatment. All Stem Cell (MSC) biologics offered by Dallas Laser & Vein Clinic are obtained from donated, full-term, and live birth pregnancies. Donors go through a comprehensive screening process and are tested in accordance with standards established by FDA requirements to minimize risks of disease transmission to recipients.
