Four steps to skin rejuvenation

Who doesn’t want fresh, glowy skin for summer? Skin that exudes radiance is a highly coveted beauty asset, and luckily there are a plethora of products and procedures that can help you achieve that aim.


Successfully rejuvenating the skin can be achieved with tried and tested topical ingredients such as vitamin C, niacinamide, retinol or hyaluronic acid. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution here as everyone’s skin will benefit from a bespoke approach – it’s best to speak to a qualified skin specialist for advice.


If you prefer to bring out the big guns, targeted in clinic options could include gentle microdermabrasion, a light peel, a touch of LED light therapy, microneedling or some skin resurfacing.


While all of the above are certified glow-getters, just one product or aesthetic treatment may not give a truly wow outcome. Consider a multi-pronged approach when formulating a plan or regime – a practitioners’ advice along with a combination of topical products and procedures will achieve the best results in the long run.


We reveal four skin rejuvenators to have on your radar right here, right now…


 


Dermalux Tri-Wave LED Phototherapy


Rated by aesthetic nurse and trainer Anna Baker who loves the diversity of conditions that can benefit from the device, this facial treatment uses non-thermal LED light energy to trigger the body’s natural processes and accelerate rejuvenation and repair of the skin. It’s ideal for those with lines, wrinkles, acne or dehydrated skin, and a course offers cumulative benefits – Baker suggests two treatments a week for four weeks, followed by one treatment per week for four weeks.


 


ZO Skin Health 10% Vitamin C Self Activating

This superior medical grade product provides a potent 10 per cent dose of vitamin C to help remove surface discolouration, brighten and promote a more even skin tone. In addition, powerful antioxidants including tocopheryl acetate and coenzyme-Q10 help defend skin against environmental triggers, while squalene provides a hit of hydration. Another bonus is that it has an anhydrous pH, meaning there’s no water in the formulation – a win-win for both the user and the planet.


 


Profhilo


It’s becoming as iconic as Botox, although this skin booster doesn’t help to smooth out lines, it’s used to give a fresher, plumper and more firmer look to the skin. And what’s not to like about that? A series of tiny injections are placed in strategic areas of the face – and neck if you want – and you’ll require two appointments spaced two weeks apart. Dr Raquel Amado rates it for its youth-boosting properties and ability to naturally regenerate the skin.
