Unlock the Powerful Synergy between Skincare and Aesthetics.

Illume Cosmetic Clinic offers a wide range of dermal treatments to help you achieve glowing, youthful skin. Research shows that combining these treatments with a good skincare routine leads to even better, longer-lasting results.

 

3 Benefits of Proper Skin Care Following Treatment

1. Skin Health

Following aesthetic treatments, skin requires special care and attention. An effective skin care regimen maintains the skin's barrier health, ensuring strength and resilience. Adequate cleansing, moisturizing, and protection can avert dryness, irritation, or breakouts, crucial during post-treatment recovery.

2. Boosts the Impact of Aesthetic Procedures

Combining aesthetic treatments with a tailored skincare routine can enhance results. For example, after procedures like chemical peels or laser resurfacing, using products with healing ingredients can soothe skin, reduce redness, and aid in the healing process for faster benefits.

3. Extends Your Treatment Results

The great news? Keeping up with your skin care routine can actually help your aesthetic treatments last longer. For instance, using antioxidant-rich products after filler or Botox can shield your skin from the elements, preserving that fresh look. Maintain that youthful glow by pampering your skin daily!

 

Can You Do Your Normal Skin Care Routine After Botox and Fillers?

Curious if your skincare routine can continue after Botox or filler injections? Don't worry, as long as you avoid massaging or rubbing the treated areas right after, you can go back to your routine in a few days!

However, it's essential to adhere to our personalised post-treatment plan and recommendations specific to your treatment. For instance, when adding retinol products to your skincare routine after Botox, waiting a few days may be advisable to prevent irritation.

Can You Wear Makeup Immediately After Aesthetic Treatments?

After certain procedures, such as Botox, dermal fillers or microneedling, it is important to allow your skin time to heal. It is generally advised to wait a minimum of 24 hours before applying makeup, as this gives the treated areas a chance to settle and decreases the risk of irritating your skin.

When applying makeup, opt for gentle, non-comedogenic products that are labeled "oil-free" or "non-clogging" to avoid any potential pore clogging issues. These products are less likely to cause breakouts and will not interfere with the healing process.

If you have undergone microneedling, it is crucial to select makeup products that will not cause any irritation to your recently treated skin. Opting for a mineral-based foundation or lightweight, breathable makeup can be highly beneficial during the healing process.

Don't forget, while makeup boosts your confidence and glam factor, taking care of your skin is just as crucial. Treat your skin right, pick makeup like a boss, and rock your natural beauty for top-notch aesthetic vibes.

 

What Skin Care Routine is Best After Microneedling?

Microneedling is a beneficial procedure for skin rejuvenation and collagen stimulation. Post-treatment, skin becomes more vulnerable to toxins and sun damage, emphasising the need for sun protection—especially in Queensland. Ensure the skin is protected from harsh chemicals and UV damage during the recovery phase.

Your skin gets a bit touchy after microneedling, but hey, that just means it's ready to slurp up all those good-for-you nutrients! Treat it to a gentle cleanser, a chill serum, and a fancy moisturiser for top-notch microneedling vibes.

It’s certainly clear that the combination of aesthetic treatments and effective skincare is a game-changer in the quest for youthful and radiant skin. By nurturing your skin with a personalized routine following aesthetic procedures, you can enjoy healthier, more vibrant skin and prolong the fantastic results of your treatments.
