Skin cancer is now the most common type of cancer in the UK. However most cases can be easily treated and cured but only if it is detected in the early stages.Mole scanning has been used for a number of years in the US and Australia but this service is limited in the UK. Blemish Clinic in Middleton is one of the few specialist clinics which provide this non invasive and painless service which can potentially save your life.Blemish Clinic Managing Director, Jan Birch explains, Any changes to moles on your body can be potentially very dangerous, therefore its crucial you monitor any which have altered in size, shape or colour. You are especially at risk of skin cancer if you use sun beds or dont wear the correct sun screen when exposed to UV rays. However not all moles can be monitored by the naked eye.Mole scans visualise haemoglobin, melanin, dermal melanin and collagen up to 2mm under the skin. The process is extremely simple, the hand held scanner is passed over your moles and the results are immediately visible on a computer, proving you and your dermatologist with a permanent digital photographic record. This can help to detect of many types of skin lesions at the early stages, before they become apparent.Jan comments, Melanoma is the most dangerous form of skin cancer as it can be extremely aggressive so early detection is crucial. Mole scanning is now readily available so dont put it off.Blemish Clinic also offers a range of non surgical treatments including dermal fillers; revolumisation; laser therapy treatments and hair removal as well as minor surgery and cosmetic surgery for Private and NHS patients. The business is managed by the clinicians who run it.

This season, the 80s revival is going straight to our heads with clean, crisp blondes being the summer shade of choice, framed by strong, funky cuts: think queens of cool, Blondie and Agyness Deyn for inspiration. If youre looking to pay homage to those looks born in the 80s – then follow these simple guidelines for at home hair colouring, courtesy of Schwarzkopfs Live colourist: As long as you are not colouring too often and the instructions are always followed correctly, colouring shouldnt damage the hair at all. Start by carrying out a skin test 48 hours before any colour application. If youre trying out a new colour do a strand test at the same time to ensure you are happy with your chosen shade. Use a deep cleansing shampoo the day before colouring to remove any barriers from the hair. Make sure your hair is completely dry before adding colour – wet hair wont absorb colour and hair thats damp can dilute the end result. It seems obvious, but do always read the instruction leaflet before colouring. Unless youre hands are surgeon-steady, its worth colour-proofing the skin around your hair line with a thin strip of petroleum jelly. Remember that when it comes to colouring, one-size doesnt fit all. If youre hair is short, dont feel compelled to use an entire bottle and thick or long hair might need an additional bottle. The same is true when youre selecting your shade, with the key being to stay true to your roots. Go just one shade lighter to minimise root re-growth. o If your natural colour is medium or dark blonde, try: 00 A Absolute Platinum, 01 Ice Blonde from Live Color XXL o Golden brown and darker brown suit warm, high gloss copper, golden or reddish tones, try: Live Unlimited Gloss in Damson Wine and Mahogany Glow Only leave the colouring product in your hair for the duration instructed and keep cool when rinsing as cool water rinses better than hotter water. Keep rinsing until the product runs clear any product left on the hair can continue to process on the hair. And before you head off into that summer sun, be sure to maintain that disco-ball reflecting shine with products designed for colour treated hair.

The over-50s are fuelling a boom in cosmetic surgery holidays, as the number of older women having a trip/tuck has doubled.Euromedica Cosmetic Surgery, who specialise in accompanied cosmetic surgery trips to Poland, has revealed that nearly 60 per cent of its patients are over 50, up 30 per cent from last year despite the economic downturn, with facelifts and tummy tucks among the most popular ops.Alina Deeble, founder of Euromedica Cosmetic Surgery, says: ‘Older women have many reasons for wanting to look younger and are prepared to spend cash theyve been putting aside to get the face and the body they want. The number of cosmetic procedures for our 45-65 age group has doubled in the last 12 months, and I think its a trend thats set to continue. Often these women have more disposable income and are motivated by a need to look the best they can, whatever their circumstances: it may be they are already in a senior position at work, opting for a second career or, more often than not, about to embark on a second marriage.In addition to the surgery, the older woman is also looking for some quality downtime, a chance to stay out of the limelight while they recover. As well as offering ground-breaking technology and an expert surgery team, we also provide an opportunity for them to mix with like-minded people, says Alina, who accompanies each plastic surgery party from the UK to Wroclaw, in South-West Poland.A lot of our patients really bond during their trip, supporting one another through the surgery and, afterwards, soaking up the atmosphere of a lovely, bustling old city. Some lasting friendships have been forged over the years and the same people come back year, after year. Its like the perfect Saga holiday but with a difference!The cost of any Euromedica Cosmetic Surgery treatment includes pre-operative medical tests, daily medical care; 10-12 days stay in Recuperation Centre with all meals. Spa and cosmetic dentistry treatments are optional; there is also a full social programme on offer, including trips to the theatre and opera, from 15.

Nails, unlike hair, arent dead: theyre living, growing parts of the human body, and whilst we may think nothing of slicking on the nail polish, gluing plastic falsies on and cementing them with acrylic, the issue of toxicity in our nail polishes, nail art and extensions is a serious one.Nail polishes have traditionally contained a nasty mix of cancer and reproductive disorder containing chemicals; the top three being dibutyl phlalate (DBP), formaldehyde and toluene substances you wouldnt really want within yards of your body or home, let alone on your nails and being absorbed into your bloodstream.The answer is to choose a completely naturally formulated polish, such as the new Zoya range of toxin-free varnishes now stocked in all their glossy, beautiful glory on the buyOrganics site.Not only is the range of over 50 stunning colours and nine 6-polish collections available on the buyOrganics site the safest nail polish around, but they are also all super long-lasting, matching the best performing high street brands for wear and tear.The latest new range Flourish has just come out, with six top shades: Cyma, Kalista, Richelle, Zara, Shivon and Mieko.Zoya Reyzis created the range whilst pregnant and concerned about what effect absorbing toxic substances through her skin and nails would have on her unborn child.

Nails are a living part of the body, growing about 3mm a month, and traditionally a window into the bodys health as a diagnostic tool for inner and outer health and beauty.

Stretch-marks and dry skin can cause discomfort to most pregnant women if not taken care of properly. This is something that The Hairoine hopes to help with her Whipped Coconut Mango Shea Body Butter formula. The ingredients in this intensely moisturising body butter not only work wonders on the skin but smell great too.Shea butter is a pregnant woman’s best friend. Applying Shea butter to the stomach improves the elasticity of the skin which can prevent or reduces stretch marks. It also relieves sore muscles and alleviates the ‘itchy belly’ syndrome that women get when their stomach is expanding.Here is what one happy customer had to say about the body butter. As a mom to be, with twins, I’ve bought the expensive boutique tummy butters and oils. Then at 19 weeks I tried the Hairoine Shea Butter. There is no comparison! The other brands I put on, and need to reapply after a few hours. With the Shea Butter, I apply in the morning and my belly is still very moisturized when I retire to sleep. That’s not to mention the comfort I get from knowing the ingredients are all natural, and the uplifting scents of the essential oils. Its like aromatherapy, and super stretch mark prevention in one. And it’s very affordable. Thank you Hairoine! I highly recommend the Shea Butter to other moms to be. – Zahira M, LondonThe Hairoine whipped Shea body butter is not just for new mums but for babies too. Once baby arrives, the butter can be used for dry skin and nappy rashes too. Best of all, it’s all natural. The body butter contains all the benefits of Shea butter for pregnant women as well as being creamy, smooth and easy to use, making it a perfect natural stretch mark treatment.
