September is National Skin Care Month (September is… Series – 2)

National Skin Care Awareness Month is often confused with National Skin Cancer Awareness month held in May. The National Skin Care Awareness Month is the time to learn new ways to care for your skin, the largest organ of the body.

Skin care is different for everyone and you should only take advice from a qualified professional when trusting treatments to your skin. Natural products are all the rage and offer a non-chemical way to take better care of your skin. Using natural products and holistic care of the skin dates back to ancient times in China and Egypt.

Elle magazine has touted praise upon Renee Rouleau for her line of products. Her site debunks the 5 most common myths about skin and can lead you to a wealth of information. If you feel the need to talk to a local expert we suggest Dr. Steven Bengelsdorf M.D., F.A.C.S. Dr. Bengelsdorf runs the Franklin Center for Skin & Laser Surgery in Franklin on Sugartree Lane.

He has over 15 years experience and will celebrate 7 years in business in Franklin on Thursday, September 26th with an open house from Noon to 7 p.m. They will have offers and giveaways, so make plans to attend.
