Interestingly, the Freckle Treatment DID work, and is an initial step of many medium- and deep-level skin treatments used by BOARD CERTIFIED dermatologists today. The dry ice breaks down the top dermal layers to be killed and slough off harmlessly (this is what removed the freckles) and exposes fresh, pink "new" skin. This allows the doctor to get to the lower dermal levels for various reasons.
Every go and have a mole, skin-tag or surface-level non-malignant tumor removed? Usually the doctor will initially spray with with liquid nitrogen... same basic principle.
Don't try this at home, kids - dry ice applied by the doctor is WAY different than just running down to the store and getting a block and trying it yourself! Severe burns and damage can and will occur if you don't know what you're doing!
LOL I agree with you whkattk... but back then, a woman had to have "perfect, flawless skin" and makeup trends during the 1930's went to a minimalist, "barely there" look (probably because of the Great Depression) - so, no heavy foundation, blush ("rouge") or other covers that could hide freckles cosmetically. Women had to rely on an almost perfect complexion naturally with few enhancements.
Freckles ruined that, so women opted to have them permanently removed... sad what we will do for beauty. Although the contraption she is in looks absolutely monstrous and cruel, it wasn't uncomfortable and necessary - you did not want a patient jerking when applying dry ice to a specific area and possible go blind or have nerve damage!
No.3 Looks almost like our first 21inches color TV we in 1972. My mom had won a $1000Can in a Sears draw and it was the first thing she bought with: $500Can at that time.
# 4- The way things are going with the economy being destroyed by Trump and his corrupt advisers we are on are way to the Great Depression II. We had the first one under President Hoover and his Republican maladministration, now we’ll have it again under this maladministration. And the Republicans are supposed to be the financially savvy, NOT !!! Another Republican created shit-hole the Democrats will have to dig the USA out of. -Rj
# 3- Like the Nordmende color tv set my father bought in 1967 when Germany began color tv broadcasts. To change channels our tvs in Germany used push-buttons, not dials as in the USA. The biggest thrill was when we had our first tv set in 1954, a top of the line Loewe, the Zenith tv of Germany :-) (vVs)

I always thought freckles were really cool!

And today, people have freckles tattooed on their faces.
ReplyDeletePatrick - Amazing.
