I would like to raise awareness to an extremely detrimental issue impacting our skin care world today. All over the Internet, in magazines, on TV, and in advertisements, consumers are promised to have transformative, youthful skin in as quick as a few minutes. What consumers do not realize is that these promises are nothing but money-making schemes with many harmful consequences because true skin-care transformation is a process that requires commitment, effort, and expertise. I personally have always believed in basic tools to achieve good skin care. Unfortunately though, we live in an era where everyone is seeking instant results, with very limited time to devote to their skin, which results in the use of fillers, botox, and injections. While this is extremely harmful to all, media is working hard to especially target the vulnerable and young age, who are painfully blinded by their fallacies that celebrities portray.  I am overly concerned for the present generation and the future, who seem ashamed of their age and their appearance. This mentality appears to be affecting everyone- men, women, and teenagers. Rather than resorting to the quick fix of injections, I advise all clients that walk into my spa to trust us to approach skin holistically. My advice for this generation is not to become conditioned by the media that promotes these gimmicks. If you want to alter your skin, it is essential to seek advice from a reputable skin care expert to learn how to treat your individualized skin care needs. At the Lia Schorr Day Spa, we provide a free skin-care consultation to anyone seeking to improve their skin, which is something the majority of NYC spas do not offer. After your consultation, we can treat your skin according to its needs and promise that you will continue to be supervised by a skin care expert to take care of your skin for years to come; which will truly reinvent your skin.
Sun is one of the greatest enemies impacting all skin types.  While we do look great with a sun tan, it is important to practice safe sun habits to avoid these problems. I advise all clientele the following: - Whenever possible, it is suggested that exposure to sun be limited to no more than 15 minutes, followed by a 15 minute break. You can repeat this process as much as you’d like, as long as you are taking frequent breaks. - When you are in the sun, put the highest non-oil sun screen before leaving the house and dress appropriately by wearing a hat and sunglasses. - Always carry water with you and drink often to avoid dehydration. - Eliminate sport and outdoor physical activity when sun is at its peak, during the hours of 12p.m.-3p.m. - Individuals prone to acne conditions are encouraged to be in the sun, in moderation. - Eliminate increased sun exposure if you have any heart conditions, are taking medication, or have high blood pressure. - Pregnant women should avoid overexposure to sun as much as possible, as they are most at-risk to cause extreme harm. - If you develop a sun burn, immediately take a cool bath, put cold compresses on the affected area(s), and treat the skin with aloe. -I would advise while you are exposed to the sun to spritz fresh water as often as possible, it's a cooling effect. These tips will allow you to walk away with beautifully tanned, unharmed skin, free from redness and breakouts.
Throughout my extensive years in the industry, I have always been a true believer in achieving good skin care with very basic and limited tools. My skin care motto is extremely simplistic: the ingredients to healthy skin care are an active lifestyle, healthy nutrition, and excellent hygiene. I advise my clientele to eliminate harmful toxins from their lives, such as caffeine, smoking, and drinking, which do nothing but destroy the skin. I also suggest that clientele avoids the use of buffers and loofas on their face, which contain dirt and germ build-up. I also recommend to not sleep or exercise with makeup. It is crucial to avoid self-extractions. For healthy skin, it is recommended that people drink 6-8 glasses of water daily and eat a well-balanced diet rich in protein, whole-grain complex carbohydrates, fruit, and vegetables. When we engage with our customers, we first analyze their skin and decide what type of facial customers should have, based on their individual needs. Most spas in New York City avoid cleaning blackheads and whiteheads, which is wrong. The right facial includes a thorough cleaning and in depth extraction of whiteheads, blackheads, and all impurities. We always urge clients to have a facial at least four times a year, at the start of each season. However, we definitely suggest our clientele have facials more frequently, every 4-6 weeks to avoid build-up.
Throughout New York City, teens are severely neglected in the skin care world. I have yet to find a New York City spa that caters to teenage skin. Luckily for teens, we here at the Lia Schorr Day Spa have always accommodated teenagers and customized skin care services to their specific skin needs. Teenage skin is naturally prone to problems such as whiteheads, blackheads, acne, and oil build-up, due to bad diet choices, hygiene, emotional and psychological instability. During these turbulent years, not to allow teens the right to their skin treated by skin care experts is truly prejudicial. Starting at the age of 9, teenagers are welcomed into our spa and have the profound opportunity to have a consultation by Lia Schorr herself, who takes pride in analyzing a persons skin, providing an individualized skin care plan, and providing each teen advice and support for at-home skin care.To speak of hyperhydration is to refer to a term that is not common, even among doctors. At the other extreme, dehydration is a well-known condition.
Well, hyperhydration is the opposite of dehydration. It is also defined as intoxication with water, as if it were a poison. And is that any excess substance becomes toxic to the body.
Although it is a rare, uncommon disorder, it can occur among athletes of long marathons and kidney patients. In people with good kidney function it is very difficult to reach this state, since the filtration and production of urine prevent it.
In terms of numbers and quantities, a healthy adult would have to exceed 24 liters of water intake per day for the kidneys to be exceeded in their capacity. As we can imagine, under normal conditions, it is strange.
As we already anticipated, there are specific situations that favor hyperhydration. One of these situations is the practice of ultra-endurance sports, such as marathons, for example. Athletes overhydrate due to the fear of dehydration, and this can lead to an overcoming of filtering levels in the face of kidneys that change their physiology for sport.
There is a psychiatric condition called psychogenic polydipsia, in which the person ingests water at all times, motivated by unfounded fears. They constitute another risk group for hyperhydration, especially in times of acute crisis.
Kidney patients are exposed to hyperhydration due to the malfunction of urine filtration. Even with a controlled intake, the maladjustment of the renal glomeruli can lead to the accumulation of internal water.
Finally, we will mention inappropriate vasopressin secretion. Also called antidiuretic hormone, it is a substance that the pituitary makes to stop urine production when necessary. If vasopressin is abundant, the order to the kidneys is to retain water.
In a state of water intoxication, the cells of all organs begin to accumulate extra fluid inside. There is a cellular inflammation that does not happen in the classic way.
When the neurons are the ones that are inflamed by water, intracranial pressure increases, and all the structures of the brain squeeze against each other and against the bones of the skull. This will generate from headaches to neurological disorders.
Increasing the volume of water often dilutes electrolytes in the blood, such as sodium and potassium. We entered states of hypokalemia and hyponatremia, with the consequent effect on muscle metabolism. There are cramps in the limbs and extreme fatigue.
If hypokalemia is prolonged, low blood potassium levels prevent the heart muscle from contracting efficiently. Heart failure appears immediately, blood flow decreases and arrhythmia can be entered.
In extreme situations, the evolution goes from delusions, hallucinations and convulsions, to coma and death. The death is explained by heart failure or by intracranial pressure on the respiratory bulbs.
Some studies have found that a sore throat is an early symptom of overhydration. This would be because the brain, when registering the increase in the volume of internal water, generates a closed throat sensation when drinking.
We can suffer from two forms of hyperhydration: hypotonic and isotonic. In the first, the amount of fluid in the body increases, but the electrolytes do not accompany it in its increase. In the second, sodium increases along with the extra water.
Hypotonic hyperhydration owes its symptoms to dilution of sodium and potassium. When it appears, the group that most manifests it are the insufficient kidney. In healthy individuals this form is very rare.
Treating hypotonic hyperhydration requires supplying the body with missing electrolytes to make up for dilution, while stimulating urination. Therefore, it must be done in a controlled environment, intravenously, under medical supervision.
In the other case, that of isotonic hyperhydration, the key symptom is edema. People see their lower limbs swollen and, in the case of hypertensive patients, blood pressure values ​​persistently rise above normal.
As isotonic hyperhydration responds to
