Do you have a few excess pounds you want to shed but lifestyle changes aren’t possible for you? Or, maybe, you just want to speed up the results? Whatever your reason is, today you have plenty of options when it comes to non-surgical fat-reduction treatments, for example you can burn fat with cold thermogenesis which is a revolutionary technique that can help reshape your body within weeks.

In fact, there are so many of them now that it’s easy to get confused when trying to choose the best solution for you. Considering that each of these options has both advantages and disadvantages, you should research them thoroughly before making the final decision.

Top Fat-Reduction Treatments You Can Get Today

SculpSure

SculpSure treatment is FDA approved to use on the stomach, thighs, back, “double chin”, and “love handles”. This is a non-invasive treatment that uses a laser to heat up and irreparably damage the fat cells under your skin. Once they are disturbed, they get flushed out of your body by your own lymphatic system.

There is no downtime for this procedure, but it takes about 4 weeks to get noticeable results, and 8-12 weeks to achieve maximum benefits. The risk of burns is minimal, but it exists, so it’s imperative that you get this treatment only from a qualified and experienced professional. This particular treatment may cause discomfort and even pain, depending on your sensitivity level. However, like with all procedures that involve lasers, it’s the burns that should be your main concern.

CoolSculpting

Unlike the method above, CoolSculpting freezes your fat instead of heating it up. Due to its safety, ease, and efficiency, this is one of the most popular non-invasive fat-reduction treatments today. It’s even effective for removing fat pockets that consistently resist exercise.

The treatment is painless and safe for the vast majority of people because CoolSculpting side effects are minimal. If issues like redness or sensitivity persist for over a week, you should take to your dermatologist. However, they usually pass within a day or two and the treatment requires no downtime. This treatment shouldn’t cause any pain, only some mild discomfort at the beginning at most. The treatment is FDA approved.

Vanquish

Vanquish is a fat-reduction treatment that uses radiofrequency waves to heat up the fat. During the treatment, no instrument comes into contact with your skin and the risks are minimal. This is a good option for dealing with localizes fat bulges that persist despite your best efforts at dieting and exercising.

Note that Vanquish isn’t the only tool to use this technology, it’s just the most popular one. You should look into what other options are available in your area. But bear in mind that if you have loose skin, for example caused by rapid fat loss, this might not be the right treatment for you. Consult an experienced dermatologist to determine possible efficiency levels.

There is evidence to prove the efficiency of radiofrequency fat-reduction treatment of the abdominal area. But you need to understand that to achieve those results you’ll need to get the treatment consistently for four weeks. Also, some people don’t achieve a measurable change.

Injections

Injection treatments for fat reduction are gaining popularity, although few are FDA-approved today. One of those is Kybella, which is approved for use at the “double chin” area. Injections use deoxycholic acid, a chemical that triggers the death of fat cells.

This isn’t the right treatment for you if your skin tone is poor and you have loose skin. Therefore, it’s imperative to consult a qualified dermatologist before you decide to try it. You’ll need local anesthesia for the procedure because it can be quite painful. Technically, there is no downtime after injection fat-reduction therapy. However, many patients develop swelling and redness. There is a very low risk of nerve damage, so you should only get this treatment from qualified and certified professionals.

If you have heard that laser treatments are a great way to improve the quality of your skin you might be right. But there are also many other ways to do so, depending on how much improvement your skin quality requires. The earlier you treat skin problems, the more likely mild treatments are to reverse or prevent damage. Below are brief descriptions of a few common treatment methods, including lasers.

Types of Laser Treatments to Try for Healthier Skin

There are several types of laser treatments you can try for healthier skin, but you must understand that they all work in varying ways and some are stronger than others. For example, cosmetic medical equipment that uses ablative lasers to treat the skin is often used for peel procedures. Such procedures strip away dead skin cells and other material from the surface of the skin. They can help you if your skin concerns are localized and surface-based. Ablative lasers can also be used for treatment of multiple skin layers in many instances.

Non-ablative lasers work quite differently. They have no visible impact on the top layer of the skin immediately. Therefore, you won’t see any difference in your skin quality right after treatment. What they can do is provide you with improved skin quality over time by encouraging repairs within your skin cells over the course of several appointments. They can do that by causing just enough cellular disruption to cause your body to make extra collagen and dispatch it to the cells where it is needed.

You may also encounter other laser treatments. For example, Fraxel laser skincare methods treat all skin layers at once. When comparing laser treatment methods your clinician can help you. He or she will tell you which laser devices are capable of treating the specific skin concerns you have.

Use Light Treatments Where Laser Therapy Isn’t Required

Milder forms of light therapy like intense pulsed light (IPL) and LED therapy do not heat the skin as much as lasers. They may be useful to you if your skin condition is mild. They can also be good substitutes for lasers if your clinician thinks used lasers would not be suitable treatments for you for other reasons. Such reasons include your skin color and general condition. For example, some laser procedures do not work well on darker skin tones, but milder light therapies often do not have such restrictions.

Avoid Light Therapy Entirely in Favor of Sound Treatments

If light therapies of all sorts do not appeal to you then you can explore other skincare therapies. Among them are sound treatments like radio frequency and ultrasound. Radio frequency treatment is the milder of the two. But it can be quite effective for general revitalization of your skin when done in a series of treatments. In LipoTherapeia, they offer radiofrequency treatment that will help keep your skin revitalized.

Try Lotions and Creams for Improved Skin Quality

Lotions and creams can also be used to improve the health and quality of your skin in some cases. If your skin concerns are mild or non-existent so far they can be used in a preventative capacity. Proper application of the right medicated creams can slow down your skin’s aging process. Such serums can also be used after other treatments, such as those listed above, to enhance or maintain the results for longer time periods. The best topical skin serums include such ingredients as peptides, vitamin A, and antioxidants. However, if you already have skin concerns it is best to consult with your dermatologist before choosing one. He or she can suggest an over-the-counter brand or write you a prescription for a higher intensity medicated product.

If you have naturally curly hair, you’ll know it’s not a good idea to overwash it as this will lead to loss of natural oils and leave you with dry, lifeless curls prone to breakage. Basically a big no no! Because of this, the advice is to wash your hair twice, maybe three times a week to keep your hair well nourished, and this applies to any hair, not just curly hair. So, what do we do when it comes to exercise and the dreaded sweat and humidity frizz ball that often comes with it? Some may say avoid exercise, but here at House of Coco we are massive fans of getting a sweat on, so that’s not an option!

So rather than adding your hair to the list of 100 reasons why you shouldn’t go to spin today, we’re going to give you our top tips on how to manage those locks pre and post workout. Whether you’re smashing a 5k before work or attending your weekly Hiit after a long day, these tips will be sure to keep those curls looking effortlessly gorgeous throughout.

1) Keep your hair away from any neck or facial sweat by tying it loosely on top of your head with a scrunchie. The Boucleme animal print ones are perfect for this as they’re not too tight but tight enough to hold the hair with just one wrap, so won’t disrupt the curl pattern for the rest of the day if you have plans after.

2) If you’re prone to getting really sweaty, wear a head band, but be sure to use a sweat-wicking one that isn’t too tight as this will flatten your curls (like hat hair) and will only give you a headache if it’s too tight.

3) Don’t be tempted to keep touching your hair throughout your workout, again this will only disrupt the curl and will only contribute to the already dreaded frizzy hair. On top of this, your hands will be full of sweat, yuck!

4) When you’ve finished your workout, take a shower keeping the hair dry and wash away that sweat, especially off of your neck! Shower caps are great for keeping your hair dry, even if you do momentarily resemble your Great Gran.

5) After your shower, let your hair down and give it a good shake. Turn your head upside down, rub some curl cream in your hands and scrunch it throughout all of your hair. Then do the same with a good quality oil, Moroccan oil is one of the best you’ll get due to its high Moroccan oil content. Again scrunch this through the hair, focusing more on the roots, giving that extra moisture boost and much needed gloss.

6) Do not apply too much product as your hair will only end up looking greasy.

So there you have it, our six top tips to ensure your curls look as bouncy and alive after your workout as when you started, even if you don’t feel the same! Now you can go and absolutely boss your day and nobody will ever know you was a hot mess just half an hour ago.

Make up skills are not something you are born with. Which is why it is okay to be bad at applying eye makeup, but just like any learning curve out there. If you practice you will learn and with the correct techniques in hand you might just become a pro.

Let’s get started

If you’re confused about how to apply eyeshadow, then you’re at the right place. If you need help with understanding new techniques, they are here as well. Start by choosing the correct eyeshadow makeup palette for yourself and then start figuring out how to put together the various shades on your eyelids.

• Start by putting primer on your eyelids. You can put plain primer or primer for eyeshadows. This important if you want your eyeshadow to stay on all day. Various brands have various primer potions. Applying primer is an important process in case you have greasy eyelids or if you have it when its peak summer. Using a good primer will make sure that your eyeshadow doesn’t budge a centimetre even when you’re running a marathon. You can use your finger to put on the primer but for some people q tips work well.
• Put a neutral colour on top of your eyelids. Every eyeshadow palette out there comes with numerous shades. There are eyeshadow palettes in Singapore that have unique shades you can play around with if you’re feeling playful. For the eyelid you first want to choose a shade that’s completely neutral. Not too dark, not too light. Put this colour over the entire eyelid, right till the crease. To get a more dramatic look, dark is the name of the game or you can get Smokey eyes too. If you have light skin and light-coloured eyes, the dramatic effect won’t sit too well. Shimmer always looks good on skin but if your face is maturing then stay away from it as it can make the skin look more wrinkled than it is supposed to. Stick with light shades in the morning and a little bit of shimmer because the day light doesn’t show it.
• It is important to have a light eyeshadow base because the neutral sweep that you get from it forms a foundation for how the rest of your look will come out. It doesn’t matter if you’re looking for something basic, a neutral colour is important if you want your eyes to pop and get rid of any discolouration.
• You need to get rid of the foam applicators that come with the palettes you can buy at the store. The best thing you can apply your eyeshadow with is a small to medium eyeshadow applicator/brush. A lot of people get by using their fingers, but it doesn’t work for everyone.
• Always blend a darker colour to the crease of your eye. Start doing this from the inside of the eye to the line that’s growing thicker as you see it extending beyond the crease. The lids should match, and the most important step is to blend till you can’t anymore. If you have a 3-shade palette, use the darkest colour and when it’s 4, choose the third darkest. This always works wonders. This step is important if you’re looking for some eye definition.

For the best results, go for a MyGlamm eyeshadow palette from the Manish Malhotra collection, Pose collection and Lit collection and so many more. Head on to the website to look at the amazing collection.
