I have been grey since my late thirties and have not had the urge to cover the grey. I believe you are as young as you feel or as old as you see yourself. To be honest, it has not been easy to withstand the pressure from society,  friends try to refer me to their favorite hairdresser or even better, say kind words like ”you look very young but you will look much younger if you dye your hair”. The hardest hit was when I came to pick up my son from kindergarten and heard the kids yelling “Your grandma is here to pick you up”!!!! But still I did not fall into the hair dying loop (once you start, it is hard to stop).

Ageing is a state of mind

Fortunately, grey hair has become accepted in some western countries. Images of graying models are accepted and are considered sexy and fashionable. It is not about the hair color, it is about how you carry your body, your skin complexion, what you wear and the energy levels you portray.

Ageing is a state of mind, rather than dyeing hair to conceal gray, I prefer dancing, going to rock concerts and staying young at heart. I think that if you feel younger when you dye your hair, than go ahead and do it, feeling younger makes you younger.

Declaring emancipation from hair dyes does not mean letting age take its toll and leaving all to nature. Personally, I use anti-ageing moisturizing creams every day and try to maintain a rigid exercise program to keep my body and spirit in high energy levels. I am fortunate to work in the aesthetic industry so I have accesses to variable technologies that target the ageing skin. I have found Radio Frequency (RF), particularly TriPollar RF face treatments to be to be very pleasant, relaxing and effective from the very first treatment. What I like about these treatments is the fact that the results are not so drastic so I do not look like I had a face lift. Don’t get me wrong, the results are noticeable, acquaintances that had not seen me for a while have all commented on my fresh looking skin and fine complexion. The wonderful thing about it is that it looks natural and is indeed a natural skin rejuvenation process triggered by the treatment; the skin creates new collagen during a few weeks causing the results to improve over time.

So, if you are in the early graying phase and have been pulling the gray out (ouch!), first, pulling them out will not induce growth of more gray than you pulled out so if you want to continue pulling, go ahead. However, you will have to pull out many more hairs as you progress in age, so let it be and learn to accept the random gray hairs and view it as exotic. Later when your hair is mostly silver it can help to adopt the positive attitude towards your hard earned silver crown and learn to enjoy the respect and beauty earned with silver hair. So, go wild – go gray and enjoy a youthful approach to life with a silver crown on your head.

Acording to EnDouceur, Dermolissage can be used effectively for the treatment of dry skin, Acne, Hyperpigmentation, Rosacea, Telangiectasias (broken blood vessels) and rough skin.

A very effective treatment for aging skin rejuvenation and tightening would be to combine the Dermolissage, which treats the superficial skin layer, with a device that targets the aging skin from deep from inside, for example the TriPollar RF treatment.

A good combination treatment will include a 10 minutes facial anti aging treatment with the TriPollar RF technology. TriPollar will induce immediate results of tightening the existing collagen and will also induce a long term anti wrinkle process by building of new collagen due to stimulation of the fibroblasts. Following TriPollar treatment, performing a Dermolissage diamond microdermabrasion session will be very beneficial as the TriPollar will ‘prepare’ the skin for the Dermolissage treatment and enable an enhanced penetration of the treatment solutions used during the diamond microdermabrasion. This combination treatment is great for targeting the skin’s most superficial layer while also affecting its inner layer and inducing long term anti aging effects of collagen growth.
