How to Make the Most of Your Facial: Tips from Martin's Rejuvenation Centre

Written by MRC Learning Centre | Jun 20, 2023 2:00:00 PM

Looking for a way to keep your skin looking amazing after receiving one of our signature facial treatments? Look no further. Here are 4 helpful tips on how to take care of your skin post-facial so that you can maintain this “glass skin” for even longer! 

Let's get started!  

 

Tip 1: Use Medical Grade Skin Care Products   

If you want to keep your skin looking fresh, medical-grade skin care products should be considered as a part of your skincare routine. These products have undergone years of research and clinical trials to make sure you are getting the most corrective and preventative benefits from each product. 

Further, each medical-grade product is formulated carefully with active ingredients that are proven to work synergistically. While other products claim to have active ingredients, they are often not formulated for optimal skin absorption.  

Medical-grade products are only sold in medical aesthetic clinics because you will need professional guidance in using these products. This guidance assures that you will get the optimal benefits from your prescribed skincare regimen. 

Here are our product recommendations to maintain glowing skin:  

  1. Triple Lipid Restore by SkinCeuticals: Addresses age-related lipid loss. Replenish and reinforce the skin barrier as it ages. Absorbs quickly into the skin. Improves smoothness, pore size, fullness, and overall radiance. 
  2. HA Intensifier by SkinCeuticals: Increases hyaluronic acid levels by 30% to improve the visible appearance of firmness, smoothness, and facial plumpness. 
  3. Sheer Physical UV Defense SPF 50 by SkinCeuticals: Protects the skin from a range of UV damage and is formulated with antioxidants, all while giving your skin a beautiful sheer glow. 

Tip 2: Get your skincare advice from a professional  

We recommend consulting our skincare experts. Your results are our reputation, which is why we only offer the best solutions! 

We talk about skin 10 hours a day, 4 days a week, and all year round! We are fully staffed with medical aesthetic experts, ranging from our experienced physician- Dr. Vanessa, to our cosmetic nurse injectors, to our certified laser technicians, and treatment designers. 

With years of training and experience, we have developed effective treatment plans and skincare routines for each of our patients. Whether it’s simply to look refreshed or if you’re battling with redness or Rosacea, we have covered it all.  

We know that each patient is unique, so no two skincare plans are the same. While product recommendations from social media are helpful, our treatment designers will help you narrow it down to results-driven treatments and products and what will work best with your skin type. 

 

Tip 3: Discover More Treatments to Enhance the Look of Your Skin 

Are you seeking ways to keep your skin looking young and healthy? Try these treatments to help you stay glowing:  

  • Clear + Brilliant: Kick it up a notch by elevating your facial treatment to a laser treatment. Clear + Brilliant is an all-around fractional laser facial that addresses pigmentation, sun damage, uneven texture, dull skin, and acne scars
  • BBL: Also called photo facial, is a light & laser treatment that effectively targets redness and brown spots from sun damage. Multiple sessions will increase collagen production, producing younger-looking skin. 
  • Botox: Botox is a neurotoxin used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, such as crow's feet and the elevens (area between the brows). This injectable treatment has worked wonders for many people to help them regain their youthful appearance.   

As you get older, your body produces less collagen and slows down the cell turnover rate. This leads to dull skin, increased appearance of sun damage, and skin laxity. Laser treatments and Botox are a few solutions to address signs of aging while immediately improving the quality of your skin. 

If you want to learn more about these procedures that can complement your facial treatment, our passionate treatment designers will be happy to help! 

 

Tip 4: Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle  

 

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential for preserving the results of facial treatments, or any skin treatments for this matter. To achieve this, you should stick to the following steps:  

Get your Body Moving  

Regular exercise can improve the appearance of your skin. It increases blood circulation, which helps get rid of toxins from your skin. Doing things like lifting weights and running for 30–60 minutes every day is a great way to keep your skin looking firm and soft.   

Eat & Drink Nutrient-rich Sustenance 

You’ve heard this many times before, but we have to reiterate it again. What goes in your body also reflects on the outside. Nutrient-rich whole foods are good for your entire body, including your skin. Hydration is also a key factor in reducing dryness, which can lead to flaking or cracking of the skin. 

Say No to Nicotine  

Smoking will ruin your skin. Nicotine, formaldehyde, and other harsh chemicals in cigarettes can irritate and damage your skin. It can also reduce the amount of oxygen that can reach your skin, making it look dull and grey.  

The repeated action of puckering the lips while smoking, combined with the toxic chemicals in cigarette smoke, can accelerate the aging process of the skin and contribute to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth area. 

 

Sleep Properly  

During sleep, your body goes into restoration mode, where it repairs and regenerate damaged cells, including the skin. Adequate sleep reduces inflammation, improves skin barrier function, and decreases dark circles around the eyes and puffiness, which is often caused by poor circulation and fluid retention. 

 

5. Find Inner Peace  

 

Meditation helps reduce cortisol levels, which is directly related to stress. It’s beneficial for mental health, as it can help to improve mood and reduce stress levels. Plus, meditation can increase blood flow throughout the body, helping to nourish the skin with oxygen-rich blood. This can give you a brighter complexion and an overall healthier look.
