After receiving a medical-grade facial treatment from Beacon Dermatology, it is essential to maintain these results to improve the quality of your skin in the long run.
Our team of skincare experts has compiled the following tips to help reduce skin concerns such as dull skin, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging while keeping your skin glowing and radiant.
Tip 1: Use Medical-Grade Skin Care Products
Medical-grade skincare products are advanced skincare backed by science. Medical professionals and physicians formulate them to create the most potent products with proven benefits to improve skin health and prevent signs of aging.
Here are our product recommendations to maintain glowing skin:
- Vivier Radiance Serum: A multi-purpose antioxidant serum designed to target uneven skin tone. It is formulated with L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C), Arbutin, and Resorcinol to reduce signs of aging, stimulate cell turnover, and brighten the look of dark spots.
- SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.25: Retinol is considered gym for the skin. It is a multi-functional skincare ingredient that helps with collagen production and cell turnover rate, which reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This dosage is great for beginners, drier skin types, and sensitive skin.
- ZO Skin Health Daily Power Defense: An advanced barrier serum formulated with potent vitamin A + E antioxidants to combat environmental stressors while leaving the skin hydrated and radiant.
Tip 2: Get Your Advice from a Beacon Dermatology Practitioner
Talk to one of our skincare professionals. At Beacon, our staff is passionate about helping our clients look radiant and feel confident. We can help you maintain your youthful glow by discussing combining your facials with non-invasive treatments that will help you achieve healthy skin and prevent advanced signs of aging.
We know that each patient is unique, so no two skincare plans are the same. While product recommendations from social media are helpful, our treatment designers will help you narrow it down to results-driven treatments & products, and they will know best what works with your skin type.
Tip 3: Discover More Treatments to Enhance the Glow
Now that you’ve achieved a radiant glow after a facial treatment, why not take it a step further? Our clinic offers a range of treatments designed to work in combination with each other to maintain youthful skin longer and to address specific skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and acne.
- Refresh RF: A non-invasive skin tightening treatment powered by radiofrequency. Refresh RF heats up the dermis, stimulating the body’s collagen production, and helps with uneven tone & texture, skin laxity, and fine lines.
- ProLift RFM: A minimally invasive treatment that uses both microneedling and radiofrequency technology to trigger the body’s natural collagen process. In this procedure, tapered needles create micro-wounds and provide heat using RF energy, which causes tightening and revitalization of collagen in the skin.
As we age, our body produces less collagen and slows down the cell turnover rate, which leads to dull skin, increased appearance of sun damage and skin laxity. The Refresh RF and ProLift RFM are a few ways to address signs of aging while improving the quality of your skin.
Tip 4: Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle
Sustaining a healthy lifestyle is necessary to preserve the results of a facial, or any treatments for that matter. To achieve this, consider the following steps:
Get Your Body Moving
Exercising helps increase blood circulation, which helps bring oxygen and nutrients to the skin cells. This process helps reduce signs of aging and to keep your skin looking youthful.
Eat & Drink Nutrient-rich Sustenance
You’ve heard this many times, but we need to reiterate it. What goes in your body also reflects on the outside. Nutrient-rich whole foods are good for your entire body, including your skin. Hydration is also a key factor in reducing dryness, which can lead to flaking or cracking of the skin.
Say No to Nicotine
Smoking can have a detrimental effect on the skin due to its ability to reduce collagen production, lower the amount of oxygen in the bloodstream, and increase free radical production. This can cause premature aging and wrinkles by depriving the skin of vital nutrients necessary for healthy maintenance.
Sleep Properly
Getting adequate sleep is essential for maintaining healthy skin. During sleep, repairs, and regenerates damaged cells. Furthermore, sufficient rest helps to strengthen the body's immune system which can prevent infection and inflammation that can lead to skin damage.
Find Inner Peace
Meditation is remarkable for the skin. It can increase blood flow throughout the body, helping to nourish the skin with oxygen-rich blood. This can give you a brighter complexion and an overall healthier look.
