Sunscreen = Anti- Wrinkle + Anti- Sun Spot As
we all know sunscreen should be worn 365 days of the year to prevent
aging of the skin and cancer. The sun IS the most powerfull accelerant
of skin aging. At this time of year extra protection is essential
especially if you are over 40, use retinol or glycolic acid in your
skincare, have had laser treatment or you have had skin cancer. During
direct sun exposure use ample (a shot glass worth) amounts of sunscreen with a SPF of 50+ with UVA
and UVB coverage. And don't forget to reapply. Sunglasses, hats, long
cotton sleeves and staying out of the mid-day sun also help protect the skin. The deeper
the tan the more the skin is fighting to protect itself from sun
damage. Something to think about if you experience tan envy!
Here is a list of our products with broad spectrum sun protection: Proderm Daytime Cream SPF 20 Suitable for Normal Skin. Daytime Fluid SPF 20 Suitable for Oily/Acne Prone Skin Optimal Day cream SPF 20 Suitable for Mature/Dry Skin Day cream SPF 60 Hydration and protection . Serum C 10% An anti-oxidant - helps prevent and reduce the damaging effects of the sun and other environmental free-radicals. Also fades sun spots and boosts collagen. Jane Iredale Mineral make up SPF 17 and 20
All products are free of artificial fragrances.

From Dr. Sweeney
Anti-Aging news
Thank you to all of you who attended my seminar
series Health is the Greatest Wealth this spring. I'd like to offer a very special thank you to Maria for all her ideas, humour and support. I plan to repeat this series in the fall as it was well received.This summer we are teaming up with The Haven Spa to offer 2 seminars: Stress Be Gone and The Truth About Detox. The spa staff will pamper you with their offerings. Click here for the full invite.
It has been very encouraging for me to see so much interest in
our wellness programs and this part of the practice has been growing steadily through word of mouth. When patients feel better they want to share that with those they care about. Daily we see people who are overwhelmed by their health
concerns and at a complete loss for answers. Working together, we help
patients take control of their well being, manage poor sleep and
stress and improve vitality, mental function and energy. It is truely gratifying to see a patient's health and quality of life restored using the DESSERT framework and to witness the power of restoring hormone levels. If you would like to find out more about the wellness programs we encourage you to call, it's the best way to explain how we can help you with your health.

This winter we spent time reviewing our skin care products. We wanted to ensure that what we are offering is not only efficacious but contains safe ingredients. The skin is our largest organ and is permeable, what we put on our skin can be absorbed. Many skin care products contain harmful ingredients: irritants, carcinogens and ingredients that may be hormone disruptors. Surprisingly, we found that even some "all natural" products may contain these harmful substances. We were very happy to conclude that all our skin products contain safe ingredients, including our sun screens. Not only that, they do not sacrifice effectiveness. We are getting very positive feed back from patients who are getting great results and compliments on the quality of their skin. Please see the sunscreen feature article for the list of our products with sun protection which we all need at this time of year.
