Pulling one too many all-nighters frequently can spell trouble for your skin, with issues such as dullness, fine lines, rough texture, and uneven skin tone manifesting on your already-tired complexion.
Brightening skincare is one solution to take care of worn-out skin, but its usage can be counter-effective when accumulated dead cells on skin’s surface are not thoroughly removed. Without a clean canvas, your skin can never fully reap the benefits of the brightening skincare you apply.
In addition to adequate sleep, regular exercise, and proper skincare usage, skin-resurfacing peels are a surefire way to revitalise dull skin and restore glow.
RESURFACING PEELS: A CLASSIC TREATMENT FOR A FLAWLESS COMPLEXION
Early records show that skin peels have a longstanding history and were widely practised by people in the bygone era, particularly women, who were conscious of their skin. This ancient beauty ritual freshens pasty complexion by using natural ingredients to shed old, damaged skin cells and reveal new, healthy ones underneath.
In Egyptian times, women applied sour milk, which contained an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) known as lactic acid, to improve skin texture. Ancient Roman and Greek ladies used natural acids found in grapes, lemon, and vinegar to fade freckles and even the skin.
In the 19th century, dermatologists began utilising peeling techniques, salicylic acid, resorcinol, and trichloroacetic acid (TCA), and phenol to treat a myriad of pigmentation conditions, including melasma and scarring.
The use of chemical peels started gaining traction in the 1960s when TCA emerged as a more skin-safe alternative to phenol for medium-depth peels and doctors worked to refine peeling methods. Continuous scientific advances in the 1980s led to the development of milder chemical peels, known as superficial or ‘lunchtime’ peels, that make use of AHAs to address surface concerns.
Today, resurfacing peels are widely used to address issues such as wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. Various acids like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and TCA in different concentrations are employed by dermatologists to achieve specific results.
ASTERSPRING PRO POWER BRIGHTENING TREATMENT: GREAT SKIN IS JUST A PEEL AWAY
Now, meet AsterSpring’s NEW PRO POWER BRIGHTENING TREATMENT. Our latest skin-smoothing treatment combines professional peel expertise with ultrasonic waves and microcurrent technologies to revive fatigued skin for a visibly smoother, brighter, healthier complexion.
The brightening treatment begins with double cleansing, where a blend of nourishing nuts and seeds is used to lift away dirt and liquefy sebum while supporting skin barrier recovery.
Next is an exfoliation routine featuring Dermalogica’s Pro Power Peel, a three-step protocol that activates cellular turnover and rebalances skin’s pH level for improved overall skin health.
The star of this protocol is UltraBright Peel, a skin-illuminating concoction powered by 30% Lactic Acid, Phytic Acid, and Grape Juice Extract that stimulates cell renewal and delivers antioxidative benefits. Gentle yet effective, the UltraBright Peel aids the brightening and hydrating of dull, dry skin while simultaneously smoothening the appearance of fine lines.
The Dermalogica Pro Power Peel is masterfully developed to be less invasive so that it resurfaces the skin effectively with less or zero downtime.
With a clean slate, your skin is ready for a Pressure Point massage with a potent Dermalogica essential oil blend of lavender, sandalwood, and avocado to soothe skin redness and encourage relaxation.
The subsequent step involves an application of serum and masque to recharge your complexion. Utilising BT Micro Device, a professional handheld ultrasonic device with patented technology from the U.S.A., your skin gets a generous dose of Dermalogica PowerBright IonActive Serum followed by a phytonutrient-rich Colloidal Masque Base.
This high-octane combination helps inhibit excess melanin production, tackle hyperpigmentation, soothe inflammation, and dial up luminosity while providing moisturising and soothing effects for an even-toned glow.
A duo of masques containing nutrient-packed ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Allantoin, Brown Seaweed, and Natural Glucose is then applied to provide comfort and deep moisturisation for the skin.
Finally, a finishing skincare routine consisting of ampoule mist, serum, moisturiser, and SPF to ensure thorough skin protection concludes the treatment experience.
