Diagnosing your Skin Type

Dry skin types

Dry skin is caused by under-active oil glands that do not produce enough sebum to keep the skin naturally hydrated. It may have a dull appearance and feel dry and itchy. Dry skin must be hydrated regularly from the inside (drinking water) and outside with the likes of Hydro and Microdermabrasion treatments, hydrating creams and lotions. The combination of the peel and the renewing serum are great for revitalising dry skin.

Sensitive skin types

Sensitive skins can be dry, normal or oily and are characterised by their delicacy. Sensitive skin frequently reacts adversely to environmental conditions and often requires special treatment in order to remain in good condition. The gentle but effective Hydro treatment is non-invasive, making it a great option even if you have sensitive skin.

Combination skin types

Combination skin is the most common skin type. Combination skin is frequently characterised by an oily ‘T’ zone area that covers the forehead, nose and chin. While the skin around the cheeks, eyes and mouth is normal to dry. People with combination skin benefit from the Hydro treatment as they can have the serum focused and targeted across the most problematic areas of their skin.

Oily skin types

Oily skin is produced by glands that produce too much sebum, resulting in skin that appears shiny and has some large open pores. Oily skin types are prone to develop blackheads and acne. Oily skin benefits hugely from the Hydro treatment, as the clarifying serum unclogs pores and removes excess oils and bacteria.

Normal skin types

Normal skin produces sebum at a moderate rate, resulting in a balanced state. Normal skin looks consistently plump, moist and vibrant. A great blessing but still requires no less attention. It benefits from the Hydro treatment, and regular cleansing, toning, exfoliating, moisturising and SPF.

Mature skin types

Mature skin becomes dry as sebaceous glands become less active. Skin loses elasticity and fine lines and wrinkles appear. Skin appears thinner with broken capillaries, especially on the cheek area and around the nose. Blood circulation becomes poor, which interferes with the skin nutrition making skin appear sallow. Mature skin must be hydrated well through drinking water, using nourishing moisturisers and having regular Hydro treatments.

Hydro is a gentle, non-invasive treatment ideal for anyone who wishes to achieve healthy skin non-surgically. The range of serums available allows the treatment to be tailored to specific skin concerns. The treatment is perfect for:

Congested, oily or acne-prone skin

The peel solution gently exfoliates away the top layer of the skin during the treatment, getting rid of dead skin cells, unclogging the pores and readying the skin for the serum. Choose to have the clarifying serum infused into your skin to treat acne and congestion. Barosma Betulina leaf extract and Arctium Majus Root Extract regulate excess oils and sebum, helping to purify the skin. Niacinamide and Arnica Montana help to accelerate healing to repair past damage.

Dry, dehydrated or dull skin

The Hydro treatment is an excellent option if you wish to reduce the appearance of discolouration or simply want to brighten your skin. The peel solution gently exfoliates away the top layer of the skin during the treatment, allowing superficial pigmentation to be shed and readying the skin for the serum. Choose to have the brightening serum infused into your skin to treat dull skin, uneven skin tone or hyperpigmentation. The serum contains Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Kojic Acid and Glycine Soja which help to fade pigmentation, providing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Niacinamide helps to tighten pores and evens the skin tone.

Ageing skin

The Hydro treatment is an excellent option if you wish to reduce the appearance of visible signs of ageing, such as fine lines and wrinkles. The peel solution gently exfoliates away the top layer of the skin during the treatment, revealing the fresher, smoother skin below and readying the skin for the serum. Choose to have the renewing serum infused into your skin to treat fine lines and wrinkles. The serum contains Lactic Acid and Dimethyl MEA (derived from vitamin B) to minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the skin. Hyaluronic Acid and Hydrolysed Soybean extract allow for maximum hydration of the skin, filling wrinkles from within. The renewing serum also contains Decarboxy Carnosine Hcl, providing anti-glycation effects and helping to maintain optimum collagen levels within the skin.

Sensitive skin

The gentle but effective treatment is non-invasive, making it a safe and effective option even if you have sensitive skin. We would recommend a course of treatments to maximise the results. Several sessions will allow the skin to fully absorb the nutrients and serums for maximum impact.
