Understanding skin rejuvenation
Skin quality is the sum of several factors: barrier integrity, hydration, pigment evenness, collagen and elastin, and sun damage. Improving it means working on several of these together.
A rejuvenation programme sequences treatments rather than repeating one. Barrier and hydration are restored first, pigment is addressed, and collagen stimulation follows once the skin is stable.
Progress is tracked photographically at review points, which is the only reliable way to judge gradual change.
This may suit you if
- Overall tired, uneven or ageing-looking skin
- Early photoageing and loss of firmness
- Patients wanting planned maintenance rather than isolated treatments
- Pre-wedding or pre-event preparation with lead time
