Environ Skin Care

Environ’s vision has always been to make the best skin care in the world, through a philosophy of well researched, scientific skin care. The products are effective, proven and cost-effective. As a brand they value and perform extensive research and development to offer exceptional skin care products.

Ever since Cleopatra took milk baths to preserve her beauty, it has been the quest of women to improve their skin and delay the effects of ageing. Men took a while longer to catch on but now more than ever the male market is realising the importance of protecting and caring for their skins. Many advertisements for skin care brands today make unsubstantiated claims of eternal youth, promoting fad ingredients that are made out to be miracle cures. We are no longer fooled by glamorous photos of air-brushed celebrity beauties, but are looking for products that offer real results and a glowing, healthy radiance.

The real beauty of Environ is that you do not need to alter the original regime you began with, except to add specific intensive products as and when needed. The concept of replacing lost vitamins in the skin is always adhered to. The skin does not change the way it works merely because a person ages. This means that regimes are similar for all, except that at different ages the levels of vitamins and certain intensive products will be utilised for specific concerns. Environ’s philosophy is to maintain a beautiful skin for a life time, no matter what your age, skin tone or gender may be.

We all age from birth onwards and our skin follows the same pattern. Thankfully there is a great deal one can do to maintain the appearance of a beautiful skin.

At Bodilight we offer Environ skin care as well as provid the revolutionary Environ Electro-sonic facial treatments using the ‘DF Ionzyme Machine’.

These revolutionary skin treatments apply a combination of Iontophoreisis (pulsed current) and Sonophoresis (sound waves) to drive vital active ingredients such as vitamins A,C, E and beta-catotene, anti oxidants and peptides into the skin. Penetration is increased by 40 times compared to simply massaging products in by hand. The treatment stimulates maximum volumising of the skin, helps to improve collagen & elastin levels to soften lines/scars, reduces uneven skin tone and increases hydration. Each treatment is tailored to suit your skin and its needs. Please see the FAQ’s section for further information about the Environ Electro Sonic treatments.

Is the treatment safe?

There are no known long term side effects to Environ treatments. However, it is possible to have a reaction known as ‘a retinoid reaction’. This can happen when the skin has been depleted of its normal levels of Vitamin A for a period and its metabolic process has “wound down”, or the dosage of vitamin A is slightly too much for your skin at this particular time. You may experience slight dryness, flaking and in the worst-cases small reddish pimples that may itch. These reactions are perfectly normal and can be controlled, so it’s best to seek advice from your Environ specialist if you are at all concerned. Remember, not everybody will experience these problems; however, you should be aware it is possible and can be controlled with expert advice. More commonly, it has been known for a few breakouts to occur following an Environ treatment/use of environ products. Once again this is due to the skin acclimatising to the active ingredient Vitamin A and will usually settle within a few weeks.

Does the treatment hurt?

The treatment sensation is often described as very relaxing, however you may feel a tingling sensation at points throughout your treatment. This is not usually uncomfortable. And is more apparent at the beginning of the treatment, but quite quickly you will become used to the sensation.

Who carries out the treatment?

All Environ skin/body treatments are carried out by an Environ Skin Specialist.

How many treatments will I need?

Environ skin treatments are tailored to suit a number of skin types/complaints/issues. The number of treatments required to achieve the optimum result is unpredictable and will vary for every individual. However, it is very likely that a treatment course will be recommended and for optimum results regular maintenance treatments should follow. This will be discussed with you during your consultation.

How long does each treatment take?

Each treatment will last between 45 minutes and an hour, depending on the chosen treatment plan for you. Treatments will take less time when only small areas of the face are the focus of the treatment.
