Understand oily skin
Oily skin is characterized by an overproduction of sebum from the sebaceous glands. This can be due to genetics, hormonal changes, or lifestyle factors. While it can help keep skin naturally moisturized, too much oil may lead to common skin problems. Managing oily skin effectively requires a combination of professional treatments and proper daily skincare.
Achieve Balanced, Healthy Skin with Oily Skin Treatments
Deep Cleansing Facials: These facials are designed specifically for oily skin types and involve deep cleaning of the pores, exfoliation to remove dead skin cells, and the application of serums that regulate sebum production. Chemical Peels: Chemical peels can help greatly by exfoliating the top layers of skin, reducing excess oil, and minimizing the appearance of pores. Peels are selected based on your skin type to ensure they provide effective results without over-drying. Clay and Charcoal Treatments: Utilizing the natural absorbency of ingredients like clay and charcoal, these treatments draw out impurities and oil from deep within the pores. They help detoxify the skin while providing a balancing effect on oil production.

What daily skincare routine is best for oily skin? A routine focusing on gentle cleansing, toning to balance pH, and light moisturizers that are non-comedogenic is ideal for oily skin.

What are the long-term benefits of managing oily skin? Long-term management of oily skin can lead to fewer acne breakouts, less visible pores, and a more balanced skin tone.

Additional Information and Pre-Post Care Instructions
Before Treatment:
-
Avoid Sun Exposure: Refrain from excessive sun exposure and tanning beds for at least one week before your appointment. Sunburned or tanned skin can increase the risk of complications and discomfort during the procedure.
-
Discontinue Certain Products: Stop using retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and other exfoliating skincare products for a few days before your treatment. These products can increase skin sensitivity and irritation.
-
Stay Hydrated: Ensure that your skin is well-hydrated leading up to your appointment. Drink plenty of water and moisturize your skin regularly to maintain optimal hydration levels.
After Treatment:
-
Apply Soothing Products: Use gentle, non-irritating skincare products recommended by your skincare professional to soothe and hydrate your skin post-treatment. Avoid products containing harsh ingredients or fragrances that may exacerbate sensitivity.
-
Protect Your Skin: Shield your skin from direct sun exposure by wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. Sunscreen helps prevent sunburn and minimizes the risk of hyperpigmentation, especially during the initial healing phase.
-
Avoid Harsh Treatments: Refrain from using abrasive scrubs, exfoliants, or harsh skincare treatments for at least one week. These products can disrupt the skin’s healing process and increase the risk of irritation.
-
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water and moisturize your skin regularly to maintain hydration and support the healing process. Hydrated skin promotes faster recovery and enhances the results.
-
Follow Post-Treatment Instructions: Adhere to any specific post-treatment instructions provided by your skincare professional. This may include avoiding certain activities, skincare products, or medications that could interfere with the healing process.
-
Be Patient: Results may take time to become noticeable as the skin undergoes the natural healing and regeneration process. Be patient and consistent with your skincare routine to achieve optimal results over time.
