The Perfect Beauty Therapy for Spring
A Complete Guide to Spring Beauty Therapy as Recommend by Estheticians
It’s the season of colourful, fresh spring flowers and a much-waited sunlight. The dry and cold change of season from fall to winter was not only brutal to the body and mind but to the skin as well, but now that spring is here, it is finally time to do something about the dull and rough skin that lost its life and elasticity.
In order to achieve that bright, glass skin texture and glow-from-within, plum and radiant look, spring is the perfect time to pay extra attention to skincare. This esthetician recommended spring beauty therapy guide spills all the secrets on how to give life back to the tired and lifeless skin, just in time for the flowers to bloom.
Type A - Skincare Focused on Texture
Solution: Resetting the Skin Regeneration Period
The skin is at its most ideal state when it has a well balanced mix of sebum and moisture, which results in clear and radiant skin that has a soft glow from within. In order to achieve this well moisturized, healthy and glass-like skin, it is important to not only take notice of but to make sure that the skin’s turn over period is at its most optimal cycle. Peeling care that utilizes retinol and natural spicule as its ingredients to aid with the process of rejuvenation and retention of oxygen and moisture on a cellular level.
Spicules are effective in terms of penetrating into the inner layers of the skin (the dermis), and accelerating the process of regeneration and synthesis of the skin cells, and retinol is easily and quickly absorbed into the skin as it is a lipophilic ingredient, and revives the skin in various forms. However, as since it is very common for the skin sensitivity and dryness to increase as it goes through the drastic season changes, it is also crucial to use mild peeling care using AHA and PHA in low concentration, pyretic acid, azelaic acid, retinaldehyde and stabilized forms of vitamin C in order to provide sufficient moisture to the skin while exfoliating any dead skin cells and other impurities effectively.
Type B - Skincare Focused on Tone
Solution: Anti-oxidation = Anti-Aging, Cleaning up the skin from Within
Clean and clear skin is one of the most important factors that helps to achieve a youthful look. In a world where brightness of the skin is not only often desirable to improve the skin tone, but to aid with the overall look of anti-aging, a multi-care system that combines the two, tone care and anti-aging, is one of the hottest things in the industry.
Plump, flushed and lively skin immediately gives off the sense of being younger and healthier, but as the skin ages and matures, it inevitably gets more prone to various skin concerns such as uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation due to the prolonged exposure to the sun that unfortunately cannot be fixed with a simple good night’s sleep.
Especially in the springtime where everyone is packing their picnic baskets to enjoy the long-awaited sun outdoors, the UV rays in the sunlight may accelerate the activation process of melanin cells, leaving dark and uneven spots that. In order to prevent this, a carefully planned tone evening/brightening care is highly crucial.
The first step to implementing this toning/anti-aging solution would be clarifying the surface layer of the skin and boosting the rate of skin turnover. This would make sure that the melanin cells do not linger or permanently affects the surrounding skin cells, as well as making sure that the natural turnover cycle of the skin does not get affected by external factors such as the increased sun exposure. Retention of moisture within the skin, which is what ultimately gives the “glow-from-within” look, is one of the most important things to take not of to ensure a more affective and longer lasting tone/anti-aging care.
Vitamin C is a great ingredients to include int he routine as it is highly effective in aiding the skin turnover and regeneration, while simultaneously interfering with the production and synthesis of melanin cells. Incorporating other anti-oxidization ingredients such as retinaldehyde, niacinamide and alpha arbutin can also be helpful in achieving the clear, glass-like skin tone and texture.
However, one of the most important things to remember is making sure to always use sun protection. As the increased sun exposure would be added stimulation that isn’t great for the skin, as it accelerates the activity of melanin cells and decelerates the skin’s regeneration period. This would mean that would be much easier for the melanin cells to attach itself to the dead skin cells that hadn’t had its chance to be replaced by the new skin cells, thus darkening even further. Use of vitamins that has anti-oxidization qualities such as A, C and E would provide extra protection from the initial oxidization process, and many other side effects that could possibly bring.
Type C - Blooming Care Focused on Skin Elasticity
Solution: In-Depth Dermal Care that Supplements the Weakened Core Elasticity
One might be wondering if skin elasticity care is necessary, especially during the spring where there would be plenty of moisture in the air. However, studies have actually been proving that due to the micro dust and pollen in the air can actually cause significant damage in the skin barrier, and missing the right timing to provide the right treatment may cause extensive damage such as sagging and wrinkles. This is why paying attention to the retaining skin elasticity is just as important as maintaining and taking care of the skin barrier.
The area to target to attain perfectly supple and bouncy skin would be the dermal layer, located just below the epidermis. Helping the dermal layer gain enough core strength to protect itself from external damage and stimulation by providing the nutrients it needs would be effective in increasing the density of the outer layer, which basically acts as the auxiliary troops of the skin.
In order to increase the density of the dermal layer, there are several core ingredients that should be used, including hyaluronic acid, collagen, fibroblast which assists with the production of elastin. A skincare routine that combines and well-utilizes these elements would be very effective in strengthening the internal and external elasticity of the skin, while simultaneously regaining a balance between the sebum and moisture levels and really draw out the inner glow to the surface.
Using ingredients that are able to help with the synthesis of collagen and elastin, increase moisture retention and plumping abilities such as low and high molecular hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and retinoids (retinol, retinaldehyde), peptide, stem cells and other growth factors could be the most effective.
Additionally, incorporating micro needling (MTS) and other beauty devices that uses high frequency that targets the dermal layer can take the regeneration and production process of new, healthy skin cells even further. The repair and strengthening of the skin on a structural level would ultimately result in quick and noticeable improvement in skin elasticity and fine lines.
Pure Raum's Spring Beauty Therapy
1. Korean Glass Skin Peel
This is a specialized treatment that stimulates the skins regeneration process in a safe, fast and non-evasive way, improving everything from dry and sensitive skin, uneven skin texture caused by enlarged pores, acne scars and hyperpigmentation to fine lines and wrinkles.
If you desire the dramatic and immediate results that laser procedures and fillers provide but is hesitant about the pain or side effects, this would be the perfect type of esthetic care that would live up to those expectations. If you are seeking something a bit more transformative and drastic compared to the usual moisture treatments for your skin, this would be the one to go for.
2. Spicule Bio Needle Peel
Skin conditions in the springtime can be especially sensitive due to the drastic temperature differences between day and night, micro dust, and other factors. This would mean that peeling care that solely focuses on exfoliation could result in unnecessary stimulation and even more damages, so the primary goal should be providing a treatment that is non-provocative or too harsh but still is able to transform the skin to be in a healthier condition.
This is where the spicule peel comes in. It is truly perfect for anyone who wants texture-focused care and stimulation cell regeneration, and is safe from causing other troubles or concerns. The spicules would be implanted within the pores for 72 hours, and in the process of the skin naturally pushing the spicules out slowly, it would also get rid of any dead skin cells and/or other impurities along with them. This would result in improvement in skin texture, hyperpigmentation, acne scars and even fine lines.
3. Micro Needling Stamp
Derma Level 345 is a type of treatment that combines EGF and DNA, two skin-regenerating proteins. It provides immediate firming and plumping effects for anyone whose concern includes dryness, lack of elasticity and fine lines, as well as acne. In order to fully increase the skin density and therefore the skin barrier, it is important to care for and work on the cellular and structural level of the skin and not just the outer layer that is seen.
Derma Level 345 is a type of micro needling treatment that minimizes any damage and allergic reaction that could occur during the penetration process, while incorporating EGF ampoule which consists of protein elements that is structurally very similar to the dermis, once again re-enforcing and strengthening the skin.
