How Skin Rejuvenation Can Brighten Your Complexion
The passage of time is a gift. It gives us the opportunity to write our own story – with every smile, tear, and fit of laughter, we live in the moment and make memories worth cherishing. While these are all amazing experiences, not every part of growing older is favourable.
Especially when it shows on your skin.
As time goes by, your skin may start to exhibit fine lines, wrinkles, sunspots, acne scars, or cellulite. However, all these little adverse signs of aging can be corrected with skin rejuvenation procedures courtesy of a cosmetics professional.
Skin rejuvenation refers to any cosmetic procedure that aims to restore the appearance of your skin, making it healthier, vibrant, smoother, and more youthful.
Does skin rejuvenation pique your interest? Then let’s dive right into the details of how this treatment option can erase the dullness and let your beautiful complexion shine through!
Types of Skin Rejuvenation
Our skin is equipped with remarkable regenerative properties, but as we age, these abilities tend to slow down. Lucky for us, a little boost from the skincare specialists can work wonders.
The following procedures exemplify skin rejuvenation at its finest:
HydraFacial
When it comes to anti-aging solutions, we’re fighting fire with water!
Any skincare expert will tell you that water is one of the most effective ways to naturally rejuvenate your skin. So, kick your skincare routine up a notch by opting for medical-grade facials that combine cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, and antioxidant properties in one. From the name alone, it’s already evident that the HydraFacial taps into the hydrating powers of water to soothe, moisturize, and cleanse your skin to thirst-quenching perfection.
The HydraFacial is non-surgical, non-invasive, and delivers an all-encompassing improvement to your complexion. By utilizing trademarked Vortex-Fusing, this cosmetic solution incorporates the four elements of skincare:
- Cleansing;
- Exfoliation;
- Extraction; and
- Hydration.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
A tell-tale sign of a youthful complexion is plump, glowy skin free of wrinkles, and laser skin resurfacing can make it happen!
This procedure integrates cutting-edge technology that can address multiple skin concerns. If you experience any of the following skin conditions, you’re a perfect candidate for laser skin resurfacing:
- Acne scarring
- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation
- Dull skin
- Sagging skin
- Enlarged pores
- Textured skin due to scarring or aging
The Two Types of Laser Skin Resurfacing
Ablative Laser Resurfacing:
Ablative laser resurfacing can be further subcategorized into erbium and CO2 laser resurfacing. These treatments target the superficial layers of the epidermis in order to bring the skin underneath to the surface.
Non-ablative Laser Treatment:
The most common non-ablative laser treatments are known as Laser Genesis and Fraxel. They work by promoting collagen production, which smoothes the appearance of the skin.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels range from light to deep, and are specifically formulated to clear and smooth the overall texture of the skin. They work by exfoliating the outermost layers by means of a chemical solution.
If you suffer from scarring, wrinkles, fine lines, unwanted freckles, sun spots, or age spots, then chemical peels are the answer to your problems!
The Three Types of Chemical Peels
Light Peels:
The most gentle of all chemical peels are light peels, which use mild acids, such as alpha-hydroxy acid to exfoliate the outermost layer of the skin.
Medium Peels:
One step up are the medium peels, which utilize trichloroacetic or glycolic acid to reach both the outer and middle layers of the dermis. This type of chemical peel is highly effective for eliminating damaged skin cells.
Deep Peels:
The strongest kind of chemical peel is the deep peel. This one fully penetrates the middle layer of the skin in order to remove damaged skin cells. A primary ingredient in deep peels is either phenol or trichloroacetic acid.
Microdermabrasion
This skin rejuvenation technique is best for people who want to improve the overall tone and texture of their skin. Microdermabrasion is perfect for reducing the appearance of melasma, acne scarring, age spots, sun damage, fine lines, wrinkles, and more.
The procedure renews your skin by means of a special applicator with an abrasive surface that gently exfoliates the outer layer of the dermis. Microdermabrasion is safe for most skin types and tones, making it one of the most widely used skin rejuvenation methods.
Microneedling
Nothing says skin rejuvenation like microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT). This skincare solution is minimally invasive and uses fine needles to promote the increase of collagen and elastin production.
Aside from triggering the production of essential proteins, the minuscule puncture wounds that it creates allow your skincare serums to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin for optimal effectiveness. The deeper your serums reach, the better the results will be.
If you suffer from wrinkles, acne scars, rosacea, sun damage, or stretch marks, you’ll be glad to know that microneedling is perfect for curing your skincare
woes.
