Hyperpigmentation is a common skin disorder that causes patches of skin on various parts of the body to darken in colour. This condition primarily affects those with darker skin tones but can affect all skin tones too. Here at The Laser Treatment Clinic, we offer expert laser treatment for hyperpigmentation on Black, Asian and Arab skin. We know how to treat hyperpigmentation on a variety of skin tones, specialising in Black, Asian and Arab skin.
Something we encourage post laser treatment is using high quality skin care products. This is because after laser treatment for hyperpigmentation, your skin will be more sensitive and fragile than usual, which is why aftercare is incredibly important as your skin needs time to heal.
In this blog post we will be discussing the importance of using quality skincare products after laser treatment, and why this is essential.
Proper healing and recovery
High quality skincare products are often formulated with ingredients that promote skin healing and recovery. Ingredients such as collagen can help the skin recover quickly, which is important after laser treatment. After laser treatment for hyperpigmentation for example, your skin will need to repair itself, and quality skincare products can help with this process. Our Zaheda Skincare line contains active marine and plant ingredients that help nourish and repair the skin. Take a look at our range here.
Minimise irritation
Laser treatment can often leave your skin feeling sensitive and prone to irritation. High quality skin care products often contain natural and gentle ingredients that can help take care of your skin until the sensitivity wears off. It’s important to not use any skin care products that contain harsh chemicals and irritants, as this can disrupt skin healing and cause discomfort.
Hydrate and moisturise
Laser treatment can cause disruption to your skin barrier, leading to a loss in moisture. Quality skincare products that have hydrating properties can help restore the lost moisture and keep your skin feeling and looking healthy and hydrated.
Moisturising is crucial for your skin’s hydration. After laser treatment, it’s advised that you use a gentle moisturiser on the affected areas.
Promote long-term skin health
The aim of laser treatment is to stimulate collagen production, improving texture and elasticity. High quality skin care products with collagen-boosting ingredients can contribute to these effects and help promote long-term skin health.
In summary, using quality skincare products after hyperpigmentation laser treatment is important for healing, reducing irritation, keeping the skin hydrated, and for optimising the long-term results of the procedure.
