The Importance of Using a Professional Skincare Therapist

Did you know your skin is your body’s largest organ and, like your heart and lungs, has a complex function when it comes to your overall health? Keeping this vital information in mind, it makes total sense that the person who does your skincare treatments is a qualified professional. 

Three Examples where Specialised Training is Essential

1. Laser

Lasers are often used to treat pigmentation, redness of the skin and to improve skin texture and tone. For treatment to be safe and successful, accurate diagnosis is important. A therapist with minimal training can easily mistake Melanoma for a freckle, which could be deadly.

2. Microneedling

Microneedling is the insertion of short, fine needles into the skin for the treatment of acne scarring and skin rejuvenation. Only a qualified professional will know which needles to use and at what depth they should be inserted to. Prescribing the correct pre and post-treatments are critical to minimise the risks of the procedure.

3. Chemicals Peels

Chemical peels are used for the treatment of pigmentation and to rejuvenate the skin. However, in the wrong hands, can lead to serious chemical burns or hypo-pigmentation.

Don’t Compromise 

It is crucial that the person performing any skin procedures has diplomas, certificates and accreditation in Beauty Therapy. Added to recognised qualifications, an intimate understanding of facial anatomy is advised. This understanding comes with years of hands-experience. After all, you wouldn’t go to an unqualified dentist when you need a filling, so why would you put your skin through anything less than the best. Lastly, be wary of unbelievably low-price facials, if it sounds too good to be true, it most probably is.
