How to Choose the Right Skin Care Treatments for Your Skin Type

According to the AAD, there are 5 basic skin types: oily, sensitive, dry, normal, and combination.

Skin care is essential no matter which category you fall under, but your skin type will determine which treatments to get and which to avoid. When you go to a top-level medical spa with a great cosmetic dermatologist, they’ll help you find the perfect skin care treatments.

That said, it’ll benefit you to know which treatments and products are best for your skin. In this post, we’re going to tell you how to choose the right treatments for your skin type. Keep reading, and you’ll know everything there is to know about this important decision.

Ultherapy

Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology to take a non-invasive approach to collagen stimulation. Because it happens deep below the surface of the skin, you get a longer-lasting effect than most other treatments.

Unlike some other laser treatments, Ultherapy is safe and advised for all skin types. It’s a simple yet effective way to give you soft, moist skin, combatting the effects of aging and skin dryness.

Microneedling

Microneedling is another way to promote the production of collagen, but with the use of tiny needles that puncture the top layer of skin. As the body’s natural healing process is triggered, the production of elastin and collagen ensues.

Those with sensitive skin may be reluctant to try microneedling, but we can assure you that it’s safe for all skin types, as they all tend to heal the same way. If you’ve got acne scars or wrinkles, you may consider RF microneedling, which uses radio waves in concert with tiny needles to promote new cell growth.

Laser Treatments

There are various laser treatments on offer at The Aesthetics Lounge. If you’ve got uneven skin tone or enlarged pores, you may consider the non-invasive Photo-Rejuvenation IPL. Those looking for smoother, tighter skin would benefit from Pixel laser treatment.

Salt Facial

A salt facial will also bring out the best in any type of skin. Using natural sea salt and combining cavitation ultrasound and LED therapy, we can remove dead cells from the surface of the skin and promote circulation.

This organic skin care treatment is great for those with fine lines and wrinkles, scarring, or sun damage.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels involve applying a solution to the skin, which helps the outermost layer of skin peel off. What’s left behind is more toned, younger-looking skin, which was sitting beneath.

Anyone can get a chemical peel, but you need to make sure your skincare clinic is using high-quality ingredients. If not, those with darker skin pigmentation may be left with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which will darken the skin.
