Treatments for Sensitive Skin

The Bespoke Facial

Each Bespoke Facial begins with a consultation in which our aesthetician will determine the most suitable treatments to optimise your skin health, tailoring the facial to suit your sensitive skin’s needs and goals. Begin with a deep cleanse, followed by a bespoke blended peel based on your skin sensitivity, a lymphatic drainage massage to lift and sculpt the face, dermaplaning and a suitable vitamin application and the add ons of your choice.

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is a highly beneficial treatment for sensitive skin, involving nano-injections of a mixture of vitamins, minerals and amino acids to the mesodermal layer of the skin. Through the stimulation of collagen and elastin, Mesotherapy works excellently for sensitive skin by strengthening a compromised skin barrier, improving hydration and increasing skin resilience over time. In turn, inflammation associated with skin sensitivity is calmed and skin repair mechanisms are improved.

Microbiome Facial

Designed for sensitive skin, the Microbiome Facial utilises uniquely developed techniques to repair the skin barrier and promote cellular regeneration. Addressing inflammation commonly associated with sensitive skin, The Microbiome Facial incorporates our bespoke Micropeel, designed to optimise cellular turnover, with Lumixa’s Fluorescent Light Energy Technology. FLE works through delivering calibrated photo biomodulation through a specialised photoconverter gel, targeting ‘inflammageing’ markers, inflammatory mediators and strengthening barrier function. Results show a reduction in redness, sensitivity and improved skin regeneration for a smoother and more even complexion.

Profhilo

Profhilo works excellently for sensitive skin, consisting of injecting a high concentration of thermally crosslinked hyaluronic acid, working to restore hydration and strengthen the compromised skin barrier without the risk of irritation. Profhilo simultaneously works to reduce inflammation, helping regulate inflammatory signalling and improving healing response, calming the skin through deep hydration and promoting collagen and elastin production.

Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides work to rejuvenate, hydrate and repair sensitive skin through the injection of high molecular weight polynucleotide chains. The skin barrier is repaired through the stimulation dermal fibroblast cells to increase collagen and elastin production, in turn improving dermal thickness and structure. Sensitive skin is effectively calmed and hydrated, showing a reduction in redness and reactivity.

What is Sensitive skin?

Sensitive skin predominantly appears as redness and inflammation on the epidermis and can feel incredibly uncomfortable, becoming tight, itchy and sore. Sensitivity is primarily caused by a weakened skin barrier and nerve hyper-reactivity, which often leads to the skin being increasingly reactive to external triggers.

Whilst this sensitivity can present on any area of the skin, the face is often the most vulnerable, due to the thin and delicate nature of the epidermis. Reactivity is significantly linked to environmental factors, such as pollution, UV rays and extreme weather changes, making it difficult to both manage, predict and avoid. Additionally, we see a high number of reactions on the face due to its susceptibility to be triggered by harsh skincare, such as products containing fragrances, both causing and exacerbating significant disruption and damage to the skin barrier.

Although sensitive skin can become frustrating and uncomfortable, with tailored professional guidance and treatments, the skin barrier can be strengthened and reactivity can be calmed. Get in touch to find out more on how we can treat sensitive skin today.
