Skin care after 20 years of age – interview with a cosmetologist

The skin after 20 years is still young, tense, moisturized, without major wrinkles or furrows. People with this type of complexion should above all maintain this condition. wrinkles
in the twenty-year-old boy they are the result of severe drying of the skin. It is estimated that only after the age of 25 the skin begins to age.

What should skin care for people over 20 look like?

Mgr. A.D .: To maintain a young skin condition, first of all, moisturizing and regenerating cosmetics containing nutrients and antioxidants should be used. The routine for caring for people over 20 years of age should be tailored to the specific type of skin. It is worth remembering because other cosmetics will be used for dry, atopic skin care,
and others for oily, acne-prone skin.

What mistakes should we avoid from home care routine?

Mgr. A.D .: The care routine should start with make-up removal, which is the basis in the daily care routine! First of all, you need to perform thorough makeup removal using a lotion, micellar fluid or a two-phase liquid. Skin after removing makeup should not be tense, dry, irritated – it would mean that the products are not well matched. Remember not to stretch the skin when removing make-up (especially on delicate areas around the eye).
Then it is necessary to wash the skin with water with a gel or foam adapted to a particular type of skin.

The skin must not be dried with alcohol-based tonics! This often happens, especially when a person suffers from acne.

In addition to alcohol, cosmetics (especially for face, neck and cleavage) should avoid mineral fats (e.g. paraffin, petroleum jelly).Which may be potentially comedogenic. In return, it is better to look for products with vegetable oils in the composition. Skin care should end with the application of a serum and cream matched to the skin. It is important that the application is delicate and stronger movements lift the skin up. Another mistake is excessive exposure to solar radiation. Daily skin care should also include the application of sunscreen, not only in the summer seasons! The lack of a filter results not only in tanning or burns.

But also in the formation of free radicals in the skin, which are one of the reasons for its aging. The skin of a 20-year-old is still young and firm, while frequent exposure to UV rays in her youth will cause that in 20 years the skin will look 10 years older than her / his peer. The day creams must therefore contain filters, preferably with 30 SPF factor, while the minimum is 15 SPF.

Should people over 20 use anti-wrinkle creams?

Mgr.A.D .: Twenty-year-olds can, however, after 25 years of age should start a care routine based on anti-wrinkle ingredients. Of course, their concentration in the product does not have to be high, while early anti-aging prevention is reasonable and appropriate. Home care cosmetics may contain such substances as: aloe vera extract, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, niacinamide, collagen, elastin, licorice extract, amino acids, urea, polyhydroxy acids (lactobionic acid, gluconolactone), oils (e.g. raspberry oil) , plum, argan, evening primrose, borage), algae extract, allantoin, panthenol.

Is the home care routine sufficient to keep the skin in good condition? Should you use cabinet procedures?

Mgr. A.D.:I think that it is worthwhile and should use cabinet procedures to better clean, moisturize and revitalize the skin. In addition, a visit to the beauty salon is an opportunity for the cosmetologist to assess the condition of the skin from his perspective and possibly suggest how to care for it better. Sometimes the skin of a 20-year-old is almost perfect, but this is unfortunately rare. Usually a 20-year-old man fights acne discoloration, with blackheads, dilated sebaceous glands, and dry skin. Already then you can and should help.
In our office we have a wide range of office procedures. For contaminated skin with single inflammations, I recommend microdermabrasion combined with medical peels.

PQ AGE or PRX-T33. For dehydrated and dry skin, I recommend needle mesotherapy with a vitamin cocktail.  Adjusted to the skin condition and office procedures based on SKEYNDOR sets. People suffering from acne with inflammation should perform a series of treatments with acid peels to exfoliate the skin.

Anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and estGen treatment to calm the inflammation and restore natural cellular mechanisms in the skin. The skin with visible inflammatory discoloration and scars should strongly simulate the skin with a series of microneedle mesotherapy, treatments with high levels of retinol and vitamin C (Retises or Retix.C) or iPixel laser treatments. The choice of treatments depends on the client’s state of health, indications and contraindications, the possibility or absence of recovery.

What cabinet treatments could you recommend before an important event, e.g. before a wedding or party?

Mgr. A.D.:Before important celebrations I recommend the so-called banquet treatments.  The effect of which is practically immediate, so they work well when we want to look particularly good. For skin requiring exfoliation and refreshment, I recommend the Geneo treatment. From among the various treatment sets, the cosmetologist chooses the right set.  Which exfoliates mechanically, oxygenates and revitalizes using ingredients tailored to the specific problem. For sensitive and reddened skin I would suggest Ferulac Peel Classic combined with a mask with vitamin C, which brightens, brightens and does not irritate the skin.
