3 Steps to Love Your Skin

How well do you care for your skin?

This is the question I have for you today.

I started off with a good skincare regimen pretty late in my life. That's when I had severe acne that my mom got so bothered she brought me to Dermclinic to have it checked. She was worried that my skin wasn't healing well and wasn't outgrowing the puberty stage. But it was the beginning of a good relationship with my skin. Suffice it to say, all it needed was for me to care for it a little bit more with just a few simple things. Now, I'm enjoying life way much better that I used to. :)

 Dr. Vinson Pineda, renowned father of Philippine dermatology and founder of the Dermclinic imparts, "Our skin needs the necessary maintenance and care on a daily basis. Added to that would be a regular consultation with a dermatologist and undergo procedures that address our skin needs. Otherwise, as you age, the neglect begin to show like wrinkles and age spots which could be irreversible."

He also recognizes that modern Filipinas now want more in life, we are driven and career-motivated. We live an active lifestyle that may sometimes lead us to neglect the basic things like caring for our skin. But we can all do this without our skin suffering the consequence in later years! Because we all know we will care how we look years from now. :)

That is why Dr. Pineda developed a simple skin caring routine that even the busiest of women can follow. One that's been proven to be most effective to fight off premature aging and other future skin problems. Here are the 3 Steps that you can do to "love" your skin! 

1. Daily protection from the sun

    Prolonged and repeated exposure to the sun’s harmful UVA and UVB rays damages the skin, most common of which include wrinkles and hyper-pigmentation. It is a must that one applies daily sun protection with a sunscreen that has ample levels of sun protection factor (SPF) 

2. Daily cleansing of the skin, especially the face

    Dirt and impurities from pollution, cosmetics, and dust invade our skin on a daily basis. What averts adverse effects later on like acne, pimples, and skin blotches would be a daily skincare regimen such as the basic 3-step: cleanse, condition, and moisturize.

3. Regular visits to the Dermatologist

    A professional dermatologist would have the necessary training and credentials to examine your skin and recommend the best procedures you need to undergo at a certain point. Depending on your age, skin condition, lifestyle, and other factors, the dermatologist would know what is best for your skin and what habits you need to adopt.

    "Three of the most popular procedures offered at Dermclinic are: NuLight, a safe and effective non-invasive treatment that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to address specific skin conditions.; The 3Face, a procedure that give patients a complete facial care –Microdermabrasion, Collagen Renewal, and Skin Tightening; and the NuDerm Supreme, an advanced skin rejuvenation system composed of different skincare products, each with its own unique formulation – to cleanse, tone, exfoliate, lighten, moisturize and protect skin."
