Naturopathic Dermatherapy - Integrative Approach

About Naturopathic Dermatherapy
Naturopathy
Is a time honored philosophy of healing that incorporates the therapeutic elements of nature encouraging the inherent ability of the body to establish, maintain and restore health and overall wellness.
Take a cue from nature.
The process of healing includes symptoms which are an expression of the life force attempting to heal itself. The skin is a mirror reflecting overall health, and a vital organ indicating internal wellness by observation of its functional status. At Naturophoria, we avoid the application of harsh chemicals and procedures that may cause harm to the skin or may suppress the natural healing process and biological functions of the skin. Rather, we employ techniques, modalities and products that encourage overall skin homeostasis.
Primum No Nocere - Do No Harm.

Naturophoria's Signature Skin Wellness Assessment
Naturophoria's Signature Skin Wellness Assessment (TM) - Offers a procedural approach in scientific esthetics and naturopathy. We combine our decades of experience in aesthetics, dermatological skin care and naturopathy with diagnostic equipment to design a comprehensive program for skin wellness, treatment and home care regimes.
We believe that the correct assessment of the skin is a thorough one - Our 30 point assessment technique program focuses on the importance of an in-depth, and methodical approach towards skin care product and treatment regimes.
Many skin conditions that surface in time originate from the deeper skin layers and are difficult to confirm with the human eye. The Observ 500 device exposes those conditions using a patented skin fluorescence and polarized light illumination technology. Utilizing this unique technology - we are able to both qualify and quantify anomalies that may present as skin conditions. Combined with Naturophoria's assessment techniques and philosophy - the goal is to provide education to our clients regarding the their "state of skin" and how to best care for their individual needs. Our multi pronged approach gives careful consideration to targeted treatments, compatible product recommendations, and tailored home care regimes.
What is Corneotherapy?
- Corneotherapy is a philosophy and skin treatment methodology with its core principle being the repair and maintenance of the skin barrier defense systems.
- It is now widely understood that the outer layer of corneocytes of the stratum corneum is a biologically active cellular tissue.
- U.S. dermatologist Dr. Albert Kligman and his partners discovered that the stratum corneum, and the lipid barrier that keeps it intact, play a significant role in skin health; it can send many signals to the underlying living epidermis and influences the regenerative processes in deeper layers of the skin.
- This understanding of skin health, along with appropriate interventions and topical treatments is an ensemble of therapies that Dr. Kligman labelled "Corneotherapy"..
- The principles of Corneotherapy can also be applied not just the correction of skin conditions, but for the supportive prevention of skin problems; the prevention of premature skin aging is an inherent outcome of this approach.
- A key principle of Corneotherapy is to keep the epidermis intact at all times, with the therapeutic actions working from the outer layers of the epidermis inward.
- This approach of retaining the integrity of the epidermis ensures the skins defence and immune systems are not stimulated unnecessarily.

Mesoporation is a no-needle treatment that exponentially increases the delivery of formulations via the lipid channels through the skin barrier. Based on the concept of iontophoresis, electroporation assists in transporting important ingredients and actives for increased permeation. Ultrasound increases microcirculation, increases the tensity of connective tissue and attends to skin laxity. These treatments are excellent for hyperpigmentation, skin laxity, undamaged skin, and scar treatment.
