Considering A
Chemical Peel? Read This First! by Contributing Writer

ntentionally harming already damaged skin might seem illogical, but that’s exactly what a chemical peel does. The intent is to inflict just enough harm to trigger the body’s regenerative healing process. As damaged epidermal cells slough off, healthier, smoother skin takes their place.

Chemical peels are most commonly used

their place, healthy new skin cells appear. Types of Chemical Peels The most commonly used substance is glycolic acid. Derived from sugarcane, it belongs to a class of acids called
“fruit acids.” Glycolic acid is a relatively mild substance, which targets the
superficial layers of the skin. Several
applications may be required to achieve the desired outcome, and this type of
peel may be insufficient for more severe dermatological problems.
www.35WestMagazine.com
Unlike glycolic acid, phenol peels work their way deep into the skin, and are so strong that a treatment takes only thirty minutes. Phenol generally yields excellent results - but the recovery time is long, peaking at one to two weeks after treatment and taking up to three months before the skin no longer appears damaged. Trichloroacetic acid peels occupy a middle ground - neither as mild as glycolic acid nor as powerful as phenol. Trichloroacetic acid may be more effective than glycolic acid at reducing the appearance of fine lines, and the recovery time tends to be shorter than that of a phenolic peel. Possible Side Effects Chemical peels can be highly effective but are not without potential risks. Applying caustic acid to the skin leaves the treated area tender, red and sore. Some patients may experience infection or scarring. Side effects are most pronounced after a phenol peel - at worst, the skin may ooze before scabbing over and progressing to a stage of healing which resembles sunburn. There is also the risk of permanent hypopigmentation a distinct lightening of the skin.
www.35WestMagazine.com
No Pain, No Gain Do the benefits of chemical peels smoother, finer, younger looking skin, fewer fine lines and a reduction in sun damage, dark spots or acne scars outweigh the potential side effects? Ultimately, that’s a question you have to answer for yourself. Chemical peels are a unique way to undo the visible signs of aging and environmental exposure. They aren’t without risk, but they often succeed where other treatments do not. To ensure that a glycolic acid, phenol or trichloroacetic acid peel is right for you, always get evaluated and treated by a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist. They can tell you if your blemishes are serious or benign, if a chemical peel is a suitable procedure for your skin type and apply the peel at the correct strength and appropriate frequency.

s there anything more enjoyable than a glass of wine and mouthwatering pasta or wood fire pizza while overlooking the Mediterranean? This planet is full of beautiful landscapes, people, and experiences that are waiting for you! As we head into summer, I wanted to highlight one of my favorite destinations: Italy.
In Venice, be sure to check out St. Marks Basillica and Doge’s Palace. Take a gondola ride and get lost in the beautiful alleyways. Seriously, get lost. Put your phone away and just take random turns. You are bound to find something beautiful and unexpected! Florence was my absolute favorite stop in Italy. A city that is centrally located providing access to Tuscany, Pisa, Siena, San Gimignano, Cinque Terre, and more. In Chianti, you will enjoy fabulous wines and stunning views. In fact, we were almost run over by George Clooney on his bicycle in Chianti. It is a favorite destination of his! While in Florence,

Coronavirus by Dr. Rebecca Butler, Board Certified in Pediatrics by the American Board of Pediatrics
H
ealth officials continue to monitor the outbreak of coronavirus disease COVID-19, but “the risk for all Texans remains low,” says the Department of State Health Services (DSHS).
While this is good news for us at this time, there is no way to predict at this time exactly how far this virus will spread and within what time frame. Talk of a vaccine has been rumored and scientists are in fact working on a vaccine to prevent the spread of this virus and decrease mortality rates.
What you need to know about the coronavirus and how it spreads: Symptoms:
How COVID-19 Spreads:
For confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases, reported illnesses have ranged from mild symptoms to severe illness and death. Symptoms can include:
Current understanding about how the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spreads is largely based on what is known about similar coronaviruses.
•
Fever
•
Cough
•
Shortness of breath
The virus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person, who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet), via respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
CDC believes at this time that symptoms of COVID-19 may appear in as few as 2 days or as long as 14 days after exposure. This is based on what has been seen previously as the incubation period of MERS-CoV viruses.
These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs. It may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.
How efficiently does the virus spread? How easily a virus spreads from personto-person can vary. Some viruses are highly contagious (like measles), while other viruses are less so. Another factor
is whether the spread continues over multiple generations of people (if spread is sustained). The virus that causes COVID-19 seems to be spreading easily and sustainably in Hubei province and other parts of China. In the United States, spread from person-to-person has occurred only among a few close contacts and has not spread any further to date. There is still more to be learned COVID-19 is an emerging disease and there is more to learn about its transmissibility, severity, and other features and what will happen in the United States. New information will further inform the risk assessment. The latest updates on COVID-19 is on the CDC website, along with publishing a Hospital Preparedness Assessment Tool to help prepare for the possible arrival of patients with COVID-19. If you have any questions or concerns or recent travel to endemic areas, please contact your healthcare provider for information and guidance.

How To

To really be pampered with longer lasting, comprehensive results, though, a med spa is the way to go.

“We have an amazing support system; people calling and messaging us with constant prayer and reaching out at the right moment when we needed it the most has been a reminder that God is going to get us through this,” Sarah said.
Hydrocephalus research doesn’t get any government funding, so non-profits like the Hydrocephalus Association is the only way this condition is gaining awareness. Sarah, her husband, Drew, and their family have a heart to spread the word and their hope is to find a cure. Their next fundraising event will be in September for their 7th Annual DFW WALK to End Hydrocephalus.

MORE REASONS WHY
CENSUS IS IMPORTANT by Precinct 4 Commissioner Dianne Edmondson
16 COUNTY OFFICE HOLDERS DISTRICTS CHANGE Other boundaries also will change within the county. Not our county-wide office holders, of course, but our districted ones including our four County Commissioners, and our six Constables, and Justices of the Peace. Those lines will be determined by the Commissioners Court, again based on the 2020 census numbers for each of those districts (also known as Precincts for Commissioners, Constables, and Justices of the Peace.) All these population-based changes are compliant with the American principle of one person, one vote. CENSUS CRITICAL IN MANY WAYS
A
s you know, last month we discussed the financial ramifications of the upcoming census. We learned that for even just a 1% undercount, Denton County would lose more than a million dollars a year in federal and state funds for roads, bridges, and schools in our county. Obviously, an undercount should definitely be avoided. MORE CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERS FOR TEXAS?
Additionally, accurate governmental

So, as you can see, there are many ramifications from the 2020 census and it’s very important for all of us --- citizens or not, adults or children --- to be counted. Your census form should arrive before April 1 and you can fill it out immediately either by hand or online. If you don’t have access to a computer, some will be set up in various county buildings, such as our courthouses, to allow census-only access for Denton County residents. Please do your part to be sure we have an accurate census count --- so very much depends upon that! Thanks!
