Now that winter is behind us, it’s time to prep your skin for spring and summer. Icy cold air and heaters aren’t exactly a recipe for a flawless complexion. In fact, our clients often complain about dry and rough skin this time of year.
Dermalux LED
First choice is to book for the award-winning Dermalux LED treatment. This has been hailed as the perfect complexion boost. Dermalux energises skin cells instantly, revitalising a dull and tired complexion.
Peels
Then there’s the option of a light chemical peel to prep your skin for spring. Time-tested, peels show terrific results in improving skin tone and texture.
Combo Frax & IPL
Your third choice will be our latest combo treatment of Frax 1550, followed by IPL. This successful treatment will help reclaim your skin’s youthful look, texture and tone. Your Lasermed healthcare provider will discuss the number of sessions needed.
Microdermabrasion
Fine crystals sand the face and remove dead skin cells. Also called the ‘lunch time peel’, it’s a super skin boost.
Microneedling
Finally, there’s also Dermapen 4 Advanced Needling to make your skin pop. With the ability to stimulate collagen and elastin growth, it’s a popular choice to prep the skin for spring. Reason being that both collagen and elastin are key to youthful-looking skin. Even better, it uses the body’s own natural healing mechanisms to provide natural results.
After treatment
After any of these treatments, step up your moisturising and cleansing routine. Choose a gentle cleanser that’ll give you a soft, comforting cleanse. Then focus on moisturising with a light, summery moisturiser. Ideally, we recommend something with a hyaluronic acid- or water-based formula. Ingredients such as glycerol and urea are perfect for winter. But it might just make you sweatier in summer.
Our final tip: sunscreen, sunscreen! Apply sunblock every day come rain or shine – 30 minutes before stepping out into the world. And reapply every two hours. This is undoubtedly one of the most effective anti-ageing products in your skin regime arsenal.
