NYFW Beauty Tip: Get Better Skin in Time for Fashion Week

It’s almost time for New York Fashion Week (NYFW), which means fashion editors, buyers, stylists and all other industry professionals have probably spent a little time picking out a few great outfits, buying another pair of statement making shoes, scheduling an appointment with their colorist/hairstylist/manicurist. Good choice your think; but what about your skin?

Over time your skin loses the ability to create collagen.   If your skin could use a little pick me up, you could run out and get a shot of Botox, but with all the new technology, there are plenty of other options (sans needles).

The Sixty Hotel (formerly known as the Thompson Hotel) offers an instant, easy and most importantly, non-evasive fix.   Let us introduce to you the DEP device, originally designed to help treat chemo patients when they couldn’t use needles, this machine reverses your skin’s polarity, opening up the water channels and delivering a personalized treatment with collagen going straight to the dermis.  It does this by using a low current rather than injection that provides your skin with an instant boost.

Diana Seo, who owns B+B Skin Lab, explains that you’ll fell a tingling sensation.  “It’s the best facial you’ll ever get,” says Seo, who got her start working with a plastic surgeon and developed a healthy obsession with skincare.  Her facials along with the DEP device can help lighten skin to create a more even tone as well as tighten and regenerate new skin cells.  Each treatment comes with a peel and a 7-layer mask created specifically for each client from a range of 80 different ingredients including a dose of FDA–approved collagen.

During a treatment, Seo preps the skin, cleanses it and then applies a peel to open pores.  She claims the older method of extractions (which is currently banned in France) may damage blood vessels and capillaries.  In fact, these specialized facials can fix the problems caused by extractions during regular facials!  Since they are customized they can help soothe any skin problems you might have, from an oily t-zone or sun damage, to the effects of Rosacea!

$350 gets you one customized treatment consisting of a peel, mask, and DEP collagen facial.  Or purchase a package of 6 (to be used consecutively, one a week, for a month and a half) for even better results.  A package of 6 will only cost you $1200!  So throw away all your old preconceived notions and try a new alternative for healthy, glowing, younger looking skin!
