Is your skin ready for summer?
Do you want to look glowing for a special event? Achieve skin so healthy you can ditch the make-up? Or turn back the clock on some of the sun-damage from summers past? If, like me, you have skin goals that you want to achieve it is a good idea to start thinking and planning early so that you can get the results you want in time.
Maybe you have cupboards full of products that have promised great results but failed to deliver?
What is medical grade skincare?
Medical grade skincare combines potent active ingredients with formulations that effectively penetrate through the skins outer layer. products often features higher concentrations of active ingredients than you see on the high street and as a doctor I can also offer prescription strength formulas when indicated. This is particularly helpful for skin concerns such as pigmentation, acne and ageing.
Maybe that you have cupboards full of products that have promised great results but failed to deliver? Medical grade skincare is backed by research so you can be confident that you will see real results. Whilst it can feel like an investment, for most a complete regime will cost little more than a takeaway coffee a day and I can recommend stand-alone products for those on a tighter budget.
What is a peel?
A peel uses acids (don’t worry, just a stronger version of what is probably in your face wash!) to remove the top layer of skin. Different strengths penetrate to different depths, to damage and destroy old skin cells. This stimulates the skin to make fresh cells as well as collagen.
Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is a superficial peel which means it is both well tolerated and has minimal peeling. It can be done as a one-off for brighter tighter skin (pre-wedding perhaps) or as a course of 3 for best results – ideal if you want to tackle a skin concern such as fine lines, acne or pigmentation. There is no downtime and the majority only experience some dryness around day 3-5 rather than peeling. It is suitable for most skin types and colours. You’ll be glowing in no time!
