Why should I take proper care of my skin?
Taking proper care of your skin is important because it acts as the largest barrier against all kinds of infection. To keep this barrier strong, you need to take care of your skin on a day-to-day basis. Paying attention to how it looks, feels and developing a consistent skin care routine can keep your skin healthy. Healthy skin will not only protect you against any kind of infection but will also leave you feeling rejuvenated and healthy.
Getting a quick facial while you’re out shopping may seem like an innocent splurge, but do you take the time to check if a facial or treatment is exactly what your skin needs? Mistakes made by inexperienced or poorly trained skin care practitioners can damage, even scar, your skin.
That’s why it’s important to know that your Skin Care Therapist or Aesthetic Clinician is fully trained on the treatments being provided and they can work with you to get your problem solved.
Choosing a skin care treatment provider
Experienced and Trained Practitioner
When you are choosing a skin clinic you must check the expertise and skill of the Skin Care Therapist. The results which you are looking for will be determined by this factor a lot. If the clinician is aware of new methods and techniques, then it means you are in safe hands and you have made the right choice.
Treatment options
The clinic where you are going to get the treatment should provide you with a variety of options. You need to check this beforehand so that you get the solution to all your problems under one roof. Having the latest services means the desired result will be achieved and complications involved will be less.
Expertise of the staff
All the staff in the clinic should be well-trained. To get good results and to recover from the procedure, you need to know the clinic has your best interest at heart. The staff should be there for you when you need advice.
What else do you need to consider?
You need to consider other factors also like the number of sessions, total cost, and after-care implications if there are any. Considering these factors will help you make the right choice for the treatment.

SkinViva works hard to ensure we can answer all the above questions carefully and thoughtfully at your consultation.
The Consultation Process
We are a medically driven, results led clinic and you can be sure that the treatment you’re being offered is healthy for your skin and your best option at that time. For instance, not all treatments are positive for all skin types and not all facials will be beneficial for your needs and some may can contain products such as salicylic acid, which could cause an allergic reaction. So, we will always ask the right questions to build a full medical and skin history before we suggest a treatment.
Consultations and Medical History. It is very important to let your Skin Care Therapist know if you have any health conditions or are allergic to anything. Someone with a history of herpes simplex who gets certain treatment may find an outbreak is triggered. As a preventive, taking medication first could prevent a larger outbreak. And don’t forget to mention medications you take regularly. If you’re on a blood thinner or a medication that makes you sensitive to light, you may find some treatments may not be suitable.
Keep treatments simple. Don’t be tempted to do too much, too soon. We will build your treatments over a period of time to allow your skin to benefit in a gradual way – although the benefit usually start to shine through very quickly
For more complicated skin conditions, we would recommend a visit to a dermatologist. More involved, complex skin conditions will always be referred to a dermatologist first to ensure you have the best long-term results, as occasionally you will need prescription medication to address certain issues, before you can move onto cosmetic maintenance and improving treatments.
