Summer Skin at NSC

Is your skin summer ready?

Summer is almost upon us, which means not only is it time to start thinking about our bikini bodies, but also time to start prepping our skin ready for the sunshine.

A change in temperature can wreak havoc on our skin due to excess perspiration, an imbalance of pH levels and dehydrate the skin which can make it look dry. Here’s Nurse Luisa’s quick guide with a few of her top tips and fave products to support your skin throughout the summer months.

Dewy Skin

Skin Saviour

Skin Saviour, otherwise known at NSC as the ultimate skin ‘pick me up’ is our award-winning nurse Luisa Scott’s combination therapy with two of our most popular treatments; Profhilo and wrinkle relaxing injections. The hydration of Profhilo, combined with wrinkle-relaxing together leaves you with a fully hydrated, dewy looking, refreshed glow which we all crave! This treatment is suitable for all skin types, with one session usually being enough for results lasting up to six months.
 
This is a dream team combo for a hydration boost to combat dry skin this summer and get that gorgeous summer glow!

Wrinkled Skin

Anti-Wrinkle Treatment

Fine lines and wrinkles: Botox is a great option for summer, as there is no downtime or skin resurfacing afterwards. This injectable temporarily relaxes wrinkles and expression lines; giving you visible results in a matter of days which will help with all that squinting we do in the sun.

Perspiration

Anti-Sweat Treatment

Excessive Sweating: Botox is well-known as an anti-wrinkle treatment, but can also be used for excessive sweating which if you’re a sweater, can be embarrassing for both men and women particularly through the summer. Botox under the arms blocks the nerve signal to the sweat glands to stop it producing as much sweat; results last between 4-9 months which means no more dark clothing, giving you the freedom to wear what you like this summer.

Sun Damage Potection

SPF 50 

SPF is the mother of all preventative skin care. Wen’t stress enough the importance of protecting your skin every single day, all year round, with an SPF 50 in your morning skincare routine! Even when you think “it’s not that sunny”, if it’s daylight, those rays are there and can still very much damage your skin (even through the clouds!).
 
Luisa’s top two SPF 50s to help prevent sun damage:
1. Intradermology’s Synergy6 SPF50, giving you protection against not only sun damage but also electronic screen lights
2. ZO’s Smart Tone which delivers superior protection while hydrating the skin to prevent dryness.

Sweaty Outbreaks

Hydrafacial

HydraFacial is a 6-step tailored to you treatment and one we highly recommend this summer to help combat those sweaty, summer outbreaks. Using an array of incredible hydrating serums this up to the minute technology deeply cleanses, extracts, exfoliates and hydrates your skin all at once! HydraFacial immediately improves your skin’s texture, leaving it looking lifted, contoured and glowing. Cleansing + Hydration = The perfect summer romance.
