Practical-wise, our skin does a lot to protect us. Think about it, how many times have you stepped out under the scorching heat to run an errand – or two and you don’t give a second thought to your skin except for maybe applying a little sunscreen to your face?
How about the rest of your body? Sure, you might complain about how hot it is but do you really give much thought to how hard your skin is working on such days?
Although the human skin comes in different, beautiful shades, it serves a uniform function which is acting as our body’s first line of defense. It safeguards us from pollutants, free radicals, harmful U.V rays and much more.
Given how much our skin does for us, it’s only fair that we return the favor with some top-notch treatment. While there are countless skincare treatments available, some come with an enormous price tag, but trust me on this one, these luxurious treatments are worth every penny.
Here are a few that I’d recommend:
1. Hydrafacial:
This treatment is most fan favourite for Hollywood celebrities and skincare enthusiasts. Want to know why? it combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection all in one treatment. The result? Instantly glowing, refreshed skin that feels as good as it sounds.
2. Microneedling with PRP (Vampire Facial):
Just microneedling alone is great for stimulating collagen production, but when you combine it with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), it takes skin rejuvenation to a whole new level. This treatment often helps to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and even acne scars, helping the skin to look youthful and radiant.
3. Laser Resurfacing:
If you’re looking to fight deeper skin issues like severe sun damage, wrinkles, or scars, laser resurfacing is a game-changer. This treatment uses focused beams of light to remove damaged skin layer by layer. By so doing, this treatment promotes the growth of new, healthy skin.
4. Chemical Peels:
I know, the name sounds scary, but this treatment is incredibly effective for improving the skin’s texture and tone. By applying a chemical solution to the skin, this treatment helps to exfoliate and peel off the top layers, revealing the smoother, more even-toned skin underneath.
5. Cryotherapy:
Cryotherapy has to do with exposing the skin to extremely cold temperatures for a short period of time. It might sound extreme, but cryotherapy can help reduce inflammation, improve skin tone, and increase the production of collagen. For further information on this particular skin treatment, see here
6. LED Light Therapy:
LED Light Therapy is a relaxing, easy going treatment that can be easily added to any skincare routine for an extra kick if you’re feeling adventurous or bored of your routine. This treatment works by using different wavelengths of light on the skin to treat various skin issues ranging from from acne to aging.
7. Oxygen Facials:
This is another skin treatment that is favoured by many for its immediate results. This is because oxygen facial nourishes the skin with pure oxygen and serums suited to your skin’s needs. This treatment can also help to plump up the skin, reduce fine lines, and give you a bright glow.
8. Ultherapy: The Non-Surgical Facelift
Like it’s name says, this treatment is the non-surgical version of a facelift meaning that you do not have to go under the knife.
Ultherapy works by using ultrasound technology to lift and firm up the skin. It also stimulates the production of collagen deep within the skin, helping to give one the coveted youthful glow.
Conclusion
Investing in these treatments can make a significant difference in your skin’s health and appearance. Remember, while these treatments are fantastic, maintaining a consistent skincare routine at home is equally important. Your skin deserves the best, so why not treat it to some luxury?
These treatments are most often, expensive and are praised for their effectiveness and the noticeable improvements they bring to the skin but, like I’d always advise when it comes to skincare, consult with a dermatologist or skincare professional to find out which treatment is best suited for your skin type and needs.
