Skin Care

Skin care, known as clinical or professional skincare, is a treatment that enhances beauty, rejuvenates, and renews the skin. Everyone’s skin type is different; some have dry skin, while others have oily skin. As we age, the skin gradually loses its freshness due to many factors such as hormonal changes, environmental exposure, and lifestyle habits. This leads to the appearance of acne, blackheads, and other imperfections that can affect confidence and comfort.

Smoking, sun exposure, harsh weather conditions, or existing skin damage can also cause various skin problems. The most important aspect of skin care is ensuring that the treatment is suitable for the individual’s skin type. Professional skin care helps eliminate skin issues, revitalize the skin, and restore its natural glow.

How Is a SkinCare Session Performed?

The process is performed by a medical aesthetic doctor or a licensed beauty specialist. Products and techniques are chosen according to the patient’s skin type and condition. The process typically includes cleansing, steaming, and applying facial masks enriched with nourishing ingredients.

Depending on the skin’s needs, complementary techniques such as Dermapen, Dermabrasion, PRP, Hydrafacial, or Peeling may also be used. The treatment usually concludes with a gentle facial massage using special oils to help the skin relax and absorb nutrients more effectively.

Who performs a skin care session?

Skin care treatments should be carried out by qualified medical aesthetic doctors or trained beauty specialists with sufficient experience. When choosing a clinic or medical clinic, patients should ensure that it meets high hygiene standards, maintains sterile conditions, and employs experienced professionals.
In some cases, a higher treatment cost can reflect the clinic’s quality and reliability, so negotiating lower prices for such professional processes is generally not recommended.

Techniques Combined with Skin Care Session

In addition to topical products, several advanced techniques can be integrated into a professional facial care routine:

Dermapen

This technique uses a pen-like device with fine micro-needles to gently stimulate the skin’s surface. It helps reduce mild pigmentation, wrinkles, and acne scars while improving skin firmness and vitality. The session lasts about 20–30 minutes, and a local anesthetic cream may be applied beforehand to minimize discomfort.

Dermabrasion 

Dermabrasion involves controlled exfoliation of the skin’s upper layers to remove scars, wrinkles, and surface irregularities. As the outer skin is exfoliated, new and healthy tissue replaces it, resulting in a brighter and smoother complexion.

A local anesthetic cream is often applied before the process to prevent discomfort. Complete healing typically takes 7–10 days, and the session lasts about 30–40 minutes, depending on the patient’s needs.

Plasma (PRP)

PRP ranks second in importance for facial rejuvenation, as it helps regenerate skin cells and stimulates collagen production. This process provides excellent results for achieving healthier and more youthful skin. Repeating the session is often recommended, as a single treatment may not be enough to reach the desired outcome.

Hydrafacial

Hydrafacial is a technique that combines the benefits of crystal and chemical peels simultaneously. It is a non-surgical alternative that does not involve complications or risks, yet delivers remarkable results in skin renewal and hydration, usually within a 30-minute session. Using vacuum applicators, it effectively cleans both blackheads and acne.

Hydrafacial uses multiple applicator heads that allow the delivery of serums deep into the skin, red LED light for a skin-tightening effect, exfoliation of dead skin cells, and evening of skin tone. The session typically lasts 30–40 minutes.

Peeling

Peeling is a method to remove dead or dull cells from the skin, restoring its vitality and freshness. There are two main types: chemical peeling and carbon peeling. Chemical peeling uses specific chemicals to exfoliate dead skin cells, while carbon peeling uses activated carbon to revitalize and refresh the skin. Both methods help cleanse the skin of excess oil and impurities.

Masks

After selecting products based on the individual’s skin type, appropriate techniques such as Dermapen, Dermabrasion, or PRP may be applied if necessary. Once all processes are completed, various masks are used to restore moisture balance and give the skin a radiant glow.

Steps of Skin Care Session

Skin care generally follows three main stages:

Total Time: 45 minutes

Before the session

The doctor evaluates skin concerns, determines skin type, decides the number of sessions needed, sets intervals between sessions, and explains the purpose and expected outcomes. Patients are encouraged to provide detailed health information. If techniques such as PRP, Dermapen, or Dermabrasion are used, a local anesthetic cream may be applied before the session.

During the session

After determining the skin type and selecting suitable products, the process begins. Makeup or creams on the skin are removed, and dead cells are exfoliated using specialized applicators. Blackheads, acne, scars, and depressions are treated using the techniques combined with skin care. Finally, skin-type-specific masks are applied, followed by a gentle massage with special oils.

After the session

Patients can resume normal activities immediately. Using recommended creams and following post-care instructions enhances and prolongs the results. If techniques like Dermapen, PRP, or Dermabrasion were used, sunscreen must be applied afterward.

Estimated Cost: 90 EUR
