Redness, pigmentation or loss of firmness are common signs that your skin is out of balance. These changes may seem small, but they can have a big impact on how we feel. In this blog, we focus on three common skin questions: where does redness come from, how do pigmentation spots appear and when is it smart to start collagen stimulation? Have you ever asked yourself these questions? Then our 3-in-1 laser treatment The SKIN Special might be the solution for you.
How do redness and visible vessels appear in the skin?
Redness and chapped vessels (also known as rosacea) are often caused by a combination of factors. Consider sun exposure, temperature fluctuations, heredity or skin aging. These influences make the vessels in the skin more fragile and visible. Rosacea, a chronic skin condition, can also play a role. Proper protection from the sun and using mild cleansers and creams/serums is essential to prevent aggravation. Targeted laser treatment can also help to effectively reduce visible vessels.
How do pigment spots form?
Pigment spots result from an accumulation of “melanin,” the pigment that gives color to our skin. This accumulation is usually caused by prolonged exposure to UV radiation, hormonal fluctuations or skin damage. The most common form is the sun spot or age spot, often visible on the face, hands or décolleté. Should you suffer from these, laser treatment for pigmentation spots can significantly reduce them. But, of course, it starts with daily use of sun protection, even in winter.
Collagen production: from when do you start stimulating?
Collagen is a protein that provides firmness and elasticity to the skin. Around age 25, natural production slowly begins to decline. So don’t wait until the first wrinkles are visible, but start preventively boosting collagen around age 25 to 30. Consider ingredients such as retinol, vitamin C and peptides, or treatments such as microneedling or collagen stimulating laser. Starting early is long-lasting benefit.
