5 Reasons Why Using Quality SkinCare is Important

The world can be very hard on your skin. Stress from the inside (hello pandemic!) and toxins from the outside can do a number on your appearance no matter how much you take care of it. When you are ready to tackle your complexion, come discuss your concerns with our practitioners and aestheticians at Dermatology + Plastic Surgery. We offer curated medical grade skin care to help you achieve your goal – whether it be skin health, evolved aging, or skin glow.

1.) Healthy Skin is More than Cosmetic

Many companies claim to be in the business of helping your skin stay healthy. However, the chemistry behind the products do not lead to results. These types of products are mainly meant to smell good, sell quickly, or make a profit. The skin is the largest organ of the human body and low quality products are not giving it the nourishment it needs to repair damage. Melissa, our medical aesthetician says, “Obagi’s Nu-Derm Kit is one of my favorite skincare lines. This line’s packing is simple, the products do not contain any added fragrance, and it has been the gold standard in repairing sun damage such as brown spots and wrinkles, as well as brightening complexion since the 80’s. There have been hundreds of studies to prove its benefit on the skin. It is prescribed under the direction of one of our physicians.”

2.) Skincare is More than Just Your Face

In addition to investing in the best products for the skin on your face, it is critical to not forget to treat our bodies as well. Excessive sun exposure, dehydration, and air pollution can impact every square inch of the skin. You should have a skincare regime that exfoliates dead skin cells, cleanses away bacteria, and refreshes your skin. Melissa adds, “Dr. Saluja’s cleanser Refresh 1 is always in my shower. It is not only for the face but safe for the body, too. Paired with SalujaMD Smooth Skin Refining Cream with glycolic acid, both products together cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate my skin.”

3.) Toxins Are a Constant Concern

It is simply not possible to live in a toxin free world. While we can strive to keep our bodies powered with organic foods and lots of water, the homes we live in and the environment we move through puts at asks risks to toxins. A strong cleansing, hydrating, and protective skincare regime is needed to hold back the signs of toxin damage. ISDIN Eryfotona Actinica SPF is a medical grade sunblock that can help protect and repair DNA damage from occurring on the skin. So, apply it to your head, face, neck/chest, and the backs of your hands!

4.) Avoid the Signs of Aging

No one can avoid getting older, and is nothing to be ashamed of, but looking old can have a hard impact on our lives. Keeping your skin healthy can improve your professional options and reduce your risk of age discrimination and victimization. Skinmedica TNS Advanced+ Serum, with more than 480 growth factors, is the latest innovation in wrinkle repair and sagging skin. Dr. Saluja says, “TNS Advanced+ Serum is a powerhouse skin treatment in a bottle. I am finding it addicting to use on my skin and it’s not irritating at all!”

5.) Boost Your Confidence with the Best Products

From the time you get up until you cleanse, moisturize and rest, you can engage in self care. You may not have time to light a candle and relax, but you can use the best products for your skin even on the busiest of days. Our team can create a custom routine for the craziest of schedules and minimalists! Alastin Restorative Eye Cream with TriHex technology is a gentle yet mighty self care product to apply to end your day. Whether or not you are investing in other anti-aging procedures such as injectables and plastic surgery, Dr. Rebecca Novo encourages “skin care is the homework that is necessary to get the best results for any additional treatment. It is the best investment you can make for long term results and ongoing improvement in your skin’s health and appearance.”
