Tips for Glowing Summer-y Skin - Even In October


With fall comes beloved pumpkin flavors and cozy styles, but it also is the beginning of crisp, dry air, which we personally love, even if our skin doesn’t. Summer humidity and sunshine can give your skin a healthy glow which our complexions miss as soon as September hits. 


These Theraderm solutions will help trick your skin into thinking it's still summer, giving you a glow well into the holidays:

 

STEP 1: Removing dry, flaky dead skin is the first step in keeping your skin healthy and smooth through the colder months. Theraderm’s NuPeel Natural Enzyme Peel uses papaya enzymes to naturally exfoliate the skin, stimulating cellular turnover and removing dead skin cells in minutes. 

 

STEP 2: Follow up with the Enlighten Skin Brightener, a targeted treatment made with Kojic acid and L-Arbutin botanical ingredients to even pigment coloration and brighten your complexion for a radiant look. This serum works to reduce discoloration associated with sun exposure and aging without irritation, so if you got a little too much sun this summer, the Enlighten Skin Brightener will be your new go-to for combating subsequent discoloration. 

 

STEP 3: Don't forget to SPF. Apply the Platinum Protection Facial Sunscreen SPF 43 and still wear your makeup at the same time without pilling, beading, stinging eyes, or running makeup with this oil-free facial sunscreen. 

 

STEP 4: Top off your routine with the Kokie Bronzer, also available at Theraderm, and complete your glowy look that will make friends think you just returned from summering in Italy.



It’s Also Officially the BEST Season: Treatment Season


You may be bummed that summer is officially over, but we have some good news: it’s officially skin rejuvenation treatment season! The lack of sunshine actually works in your favor when it comes to treatments like laser facials, peels, and dermaplaning,  giving you time to repair the damage done to the skin during the warmer months. Shedding those outer layers of skin allows fresh cells to regenerate for a year-long glow. 

 

Here are some of our top treatment picks and tips on proper post-treatment care to help you get the most out of your procedures from Theraderm Clinical Skin Care Founder, Dr James Beckman:

 

Chemical Peel:

A peel is a great option for anyone who wants to improve the overall health of their complexion. Depending on the strength of the peel—superficial, medium or deep—it can address hyperpigmentation, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin tone. The downtime also depends on the strength of the peel and the state of your complexion prior to the peel, but you’ll begin to see peeling and flaking of the skin in the days after, which can be annoying... NuPeel Natural Enzyme Peel can greatly speed this process along making it much more tolerable. 

 

Lasers:

These days, lasers can really target anything you wish to have removed: pigmentation, age spots, acne, scarring, unwanted hair, or even tattoos. Lasers also rejuvenate the skin leaving it tighter and brighter, making these treatments an excellent choice for someone who wants to see drastic results. We recommend turning to the Skin Renewal System post-laser to help keep skin clean and aid in regeneration. We recommend using our gentle, soap-free Theraderm Cleansing Wash, the OPC Reparative Serum which will help repair the skin and prevent sun damage, and the Gentle moisturizer for sensitive or reactive skin. Save the Fruit Acid Exfoliant for later to prolong your amazing results!

 

Microneedling:

This minimally invasive cosmetic treatment involves puncturing the skin with tiny needles, which causes trauma and lesions to the skin to trigger your skin’s repair process and collagen production. After your treatment, use restorative products like our OPC Reparative Serum or Eternox Peptide Creme to repair the skin barrier and speed the healing process.
