  • Three Ways to Correct Sun-Damaged Skin

    Three Ways to Correct Sun-Damaged Skin

    Long, lazy days lounging in the sun once gave you perfectly bronzed skin. Fast forward 20 years later and now you’ve noticed that your care-free days of unprotected time in the sun have taken a toll on your skin across your face, hands, arms and general body. Signs of sun-damaged skin include uneven pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, dark spots, saggy skin and more. Fortunately, there are a few options available to improve or entirely treat your sun-damaged skin. Keep reading to learn more about a variety of sun damage treatment options available to you.

    Skincare Products

    First, it’s important to emphasize that in order to reverse sun-damaged skin, you must protect your skin from further damage. One of the best defenses against sun damage is a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. At Deux Rosé Beauty Refinery, our experienced advanced aestheticians typically recommend sunscreens such as the SunBetter Advanced Mineral Protection, which provides an extraordinary level of protection against UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays.

    After you’ve guaranteed you’re protecting your skin from further damage, let’s discuss products that can begin to repair your skin. Two of our flagship products that work to correct and repair sun damage are  SkinBetter’s Even Tone Correcting Serum and SkinBetter’s Alto Defense Serum.

    SkinBetter Even Tone Correcting Serum:

    This correcting serum by SkinBetter improves the appearance of brown patches, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and discoloration. Additionally, this product brightens and evens the appearance of skin, while improving the appearance of yellowing that often accompanies the look of hyperpigmentation.

    SkinBetter Alto Defense Serum: 

    This product defends your skin against free radicals and the visible effects of skin aging due to environmental stressors, including blue light and pollution. In addition to daily antioxidant protection, Alto Defense Serum improves the appearance of uneven skin tone and redness.

    Other benefits of this product include enhancing vitality, improving the appearance of skin tone and luminosity and reducing the appearance of skin redness. This product combines Vitamins C and E plus an additional seventeen antioxidants.

    Laser Treatment

    In addition to skincare products, laser treatments have also proven to be effective in combatting sun damage. One of our most popular laser treatments for sun-damaged skin is the IPL treatment.

    IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments, AKA photofacials, uses broadband light to improve the appearance of sun spots, age spots and skin texture. A handheld device channels light energy to target specific parts of your skin. IPL treatments are non-invasive treatments that are both effective and affordable.

    PDO Threads

    As we previously mentioned, sun damage can cause sagging skin in various areas of your body. Thankfully, PDO threads are here to help! Smooth PDO threads are ideal for skin rejuvenation. These threads prompt your skin to produce collagen where they’re placed, which can help treat sun-damaged skin. For patients struggling with saggy skin, barbed PDO threads can be used to lift and tighten the skin, reversing and repairing the damage caused by the sun. (A consultation is required prior to all PDO treatments.)

  • Microneedling vs. RF Microneedling

    Microneedling vs. RF Microneedling

    When it comes to successful anti-aging methods, skincare treatments and cosmetic injections go hand in hand. Microneedling, a type of collagen induction therapy, has become an increasingly popular treatment. Another up-and-coming skin treatment is RF Microneedling. Although these treatments have similar names, there are some significant differences between the two. To learn more about the difference between Microneedling and RF Microneedling, keep reading.

    What is Traditional Microneedling?

    Microneedling is primarily great for overall skin rejuvenation. This popular treatment addresses fine lines, textured skin and scarring while simultaneously prompting collagen production. At Deux Rosé Beauty Refinery, we use the FDA-approved SkinPen for Microneedling treatments to ensure a safe and effective result. Results from the Microneedling treatments can be seen after just one treatment, but for optimal results, we typically recommend three to four sessions.

    What is RF Microneedling?

    Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling is primarily used to tighten the skin, in addition to diminishing scarring and stretch marks. RF Microneedling also offers the same benefits as traditional microneedling, such as addressing fine lines/wrinkles, skin texture and more. RF Microneedling is a skin tightening treatment that uses radio frequency energy through fine point needles to deliver heat into the deeper layers of skin. When this heat is administered, it prompts collagen production and skin tightening in that area.

    So What’s the Difference?

    As we’ve discussed, both treatments are a type of collagen induction therapy. Additionally, both treatments can be applied to areas other than the face, such as the neck, décolletage and more. They both pierce the skin and generate micro-wounds, which jumpstarts your skin’s collagen production and helps achieve drastic improvement in your skin concerns like texture and appearance… but what’s the difference? The primary difference between these treatments is that Microneedling is ideal for patients looking to rejuvenate their skin, while RF Microneedling is ideal for patients looking to tighten their skin.
