When it comes to skin types, it seems that for the most part, we always want that skin type that we don’t have i.e. oily-skinned teens pile on products to dry their skin to prevent breakouts, while mature women slather on cold creams and moisturizers to make their skin resemble a teenager’s. People have the opportunity to protect their skin from the harsh rays of the sun by using adequate sunscreen, yet often leave it unprotected to get a tan, thus creating skin that resembles shoe leather and risking skin cancer down the road.

Summer is nearly here and most families will be headed out doors to begin all sorts of outdoor activities. Summer can be one of the roughest times of the year on the skin and steps should be taken to protect its health.

This can mean that the skin has more dirt, oils and even environmental chemicals will be trapped in your pores. This is certainly the time of year when we need to be much more conscious of our skin health and take measures to protect it from damage. Here are a few tips to help maintain skin health this summer.
Most people associate removing wrinkles with a Botox treatment, but recently it has been used in cases where individuals have experienced migraines. The question remains as to whether or not there is adequate evidence that would show a Botox treatment would provide any measure of relief for migraine sufferers. In July of 2010, the MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency) licensed Botox for treating chronic migraines.
