THE SKIN BARRIER
The skin barrier acts like your own personal shield, and it is important to help to keep it strong and healthy for it to work effectively.
​
What a healthy skin barrier provides:
​
Protection: It is your first line of defense against environmental aggressors like pollutants, toxins and bad bacteria. A compromised barrier can leave you more vulnerable to infections and irritation.
​
Hydration: It traps moisture in your skin, keeping it plump and hydrated. This leads to a smoother, more supple appearance. Dry, flaky skin is a sign of a damaged barrier.
​
Reduced Sensitivity: A healthy barrier helps prevent irritants from triggering sensitivities. This can be especially helpful for those with conditions like eczema and rosacea.
​
Overall Glow: When your barrier functions well, it reflects in your overall complexion. It is likely to produce fewer breakouts, less redness and a more even skin tone.
In the age of non-surgical and surgical facial enhancements, a healthy barrier is essential for successful aesthetic procedures. Aside from irritation, a weak barrier can also lead to poor healing after such treatments. Furthermore, healthy skin is better equipped to maintain the results of these procedures, with a strong barrier minimising wrinkles and dryness. So, for those seeking a youthful appearance, prioritising a healthy skin barrier is the ultimate foundation for achieving and maintaining their aesthetic results. At N-ZEN SKIN STUDIO, we offer Celluma LED light therapy and Nimue Skin Technology to help reach your healthy skin goals.
