23.01.2022 What should you be thinking about when buying skincare products? Here is a breakdown of a few considerations. We always say give a product about 3 months to go through purging and start showing results. Patch testing is always helpful for those with sensitive skin also. . . Have you been considering these things or just diving in head first?

19.01.2022 TEXTURE, TONE & VOLUME Skin-rejuvenating cosmetic treatments have evolved from basic solutions to synergistic treatments that address a wide range of age-related factors. From fine lines and wrinkles, blotchy skin texture, poor skin tone and skin laxity, through to lack of midfacial fat volume, Cutis Clinic provides an incredible range of preventive and therapeutic texture, tone and volume treatments for every age group. . . Call, email or DM us today to book your free initial consult with our nurses & therapists who will assess your skin and develop your fully customised treatment plan!

15.01.2022 Vitamin C, or #ascorbicacid is a useful skincare active to add to any routine. - Found in: Citrus foods, leafy green vegetables and in all health food shops. However, no solid studies on Vitamin C supplementation & skin biology. Deficiency can lead to scurvy, presents in the skin as ecchymoses, fragility, perifollicular purpura & corkscrew hairs. I have only seen one case in my career. - Clinical application: #Skinageing, #melasma, #sunspots, #depigmentation, post-infl...ammatory pigmentation, #stretchmarks- best used in conjunction with actives. Add ascorbic acid as the end of your skin care journey if you suffer from sensitive skin. This includes patients with #rosacea & eczema . . Best applied: In the morning as part of your #skincare routine (as an antioxidant), or nightly to improve collagen and #skinpigmentation. I frequently use this vitamin as an antioxidant in combination with #hydroquinone as it can act as a stabilizer for compounded formulations . . Caution: Ascorbic acid is best absorbed with in low pH formulations. This means it can flare up patients with sensitive skin such as #acne, #rosacea, #eczema. Considering up to 60% of the population has #sensitiveskin, apply with utmost caution. - - Dr Lim’s Protip: "I prescribe ascorbic acid at least half a dozen times a day, however I prefer a compounded formulation, namely combining other actives such as #hydroquinone, #kojicacid and other ingredients. When I start patients on skin care, vitamin C is the last #skinvitamin I prescribe. Why? Most of us will choose to use sunscreen in the morning. The effects of ascorbic acid is to scavenge free- radicals. Majority of free- radical is from #UVR, hence if you are particular about sunscreen application, you will reduce the amount of free-radials in the first place. If you are on the borderline of skin irritancy, this may tip you over. Especially important for consumers who use multiple high concentration products. As always, formulations matter. This is especially important for ascorbic acid." See more

02.01.2022 A healthy skin barrier generally has the right amount of lipids, will retain moisture within the skin, be resilient, yet flexible. However, sometimes, we tend to disrupt this healthy balance due to a plethora of reasons - using too many active ingredients (e.g. retinoids, vitamin c, acids), over-exfoliation, aggressive treatments, pollution, personal stress, over-cleansing, aging and many others. This leads to an impaired skin barrier, which can present in multiple forms - redness, dryness, flakiness, inflammation, acne-flare ups or an overall uncomfortable feel. Here are some helpful barrier repairing ingredients! (TIP: look for products that contains a mixture of these ingredients, with extra emphasis on products that contain ceramides, fatty acids and cholesterol)
