Skin Treatments
Choose the right treatment for your skin!
We've provided some information below to help you choose the right treatment for your skin. Always use caution and consult a dermatologist for best results especially if you have sensitive skin or are a beginner.
Salicylic Acid is the ultimate eliminator of bothersome acne - Blackheads, Whiteheads, Papules, Pastules, Nodules and Cysts. This acid works to unclog pores by digesting debris and exfoliating the excess layers of dead skin. In doing so, it resurfaces the skin thereby reducing the signs of aging; lines and wrinkles. It also reduces inflammation, the visible size of pores. Salicylic acid will also eliminate Post-Inflammation Hyperpigmentation and Post-Inflammation Erythema which normally lingers long after the acne is gone.
Glycolic Acid sheds off your skin in less than a week. It causes your skin to exfoliate faster than it normally would have, which is every 21-28 days. This resurfacing reduces lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and brightens your skin. It is often used in conjunction with microdermabrasion and micro-needling. Do not combine with Vitamin C as this results in over-exfoliation.
Retinol aka Vitamin A is a fat soluble molecule that improves gene expression and speeds up cell renewal. This in turn resurfaces your skin reducing lines and wrinkles. Retinol also reduces acne and hyperpigmentation while improving skin hydration and repairing UV damage.
Ferulic Acid & L-Ascorbic Acid are different forms of Vitamin C. The major difference in skin is that Ferulic Acid is more potent while L-Ascorbic Acid has the ability to hydrate. Both acids neutralize reactive oxygen from UV radiation and pollution, they preserve collagen, improve immune function and promote exfoliation which ultimately brightens the skin.
