Norsk versjon?

Welcome to Professional Skincare!

As a medical-aesthetic practitioner, I meet people daily who are unsure of how to best care for their skin. Skincare is not just about applying a random cream – it requires knowledge, precision, and a solid foundation to achieve truly radiant skin. Through this blog, I aim to share my expertise and practical advice to give you a deeper insight into the world of skincare.

Many believe that mass-market products are enough, but the truth is that your skin deserves more. Only the best, carefully selected products, combined with treatments tailored to your needs, can provide your skin with everything it needs to shine. This blog is for those who want to understand why professional methods and products are an investment – not just in appearance but in your skin's long-term health and vitality.

The Professional Difference: Why Professional Products Stand Out

Skincare products from clinics differ fundamentally from what you find in regular stores. This is a topic I often discuss with my clients, and many are surprised at how significant the difference really is.

“Mass-market skincare makes big promises, but professional products deliver results. They are scientifically developed to work deep within the skin, not just on the surface.”

Ingredients with High Concentration and Quality:

Mass-market products often contain lower concentrations of active ingredients to reduce costs and minimize the risk of side effects. Professional products, on the other hand, use ingredients like hyaluronic acid, retinol, Q10, and peptides in optimal concentrations, specially formulated to address specific skin issues.

Scientific Research and Documentation:

All the products we offer are based on clinical studies and scientific documentation. This ensures the ingredients are not only effective but also safe and compatible with your skin.

A Biochemical Perspective on Effectiveness:

I select products developed with advanced technology to maximize bioavailability. This means the ingredients are effectively absorbed and utilized by the skin. For instance, low-molecular hyaluronic acid penetrates deeply for long-lasting hydration, while high-molecular hyaluronic acid locks moisture on the surface for an instant glow.

Why Not All Hyaluronic Acid is the Same

Hyaluronic acid is one of the most used ingredients in skincare, but not all hyaluronic acid products are created equal. There are significant differences in how this ingredient is formulated and the results it can deliver.

1. Molecular Size and Penetration:

Mass-market products often use hyaluronic acid with large molecules that sit on the skin's surface. This provides a temporary feeling of hydration but does not deeply hydrate the skin. Professional products combine both low- and high-molecular hyaluronic acid. Low-molecular acid penetrates deeply to provide long-lasting moisture and stimulate cellular renewal, while high-molecular acid locks in moisture for an instant glow.

2. Concentration and Purity:

Mass-market products often have low concentrations of hyaluronic acid because it is cheaper to produce. They are also frequently mixed with fillers and fragrances, which can irritate the skin. Professional products are formulated with high concentrations of pure hyaluronic acid, without unnecessary additives, for maximum effect.

3. Clinical Research and Effectiveness:

The products we offer in our clinic have been clinically proven to increase the skin's hydration levels by up to 50% in just a few weeks. This is an effect mass-market products cannot achieve.

“Hyaluronic acid is not just hyaluronic acid. Professional products combine low- and high-molecular variants for optimal hydration and long-lasting results.”

A Customer Experience: Concentration Makes the Difference

One of our customers wanted to try the Glo Skin Beauty retinol series. Despite clear instructions to use only 2-3 drops, she applied it the way she was accustomed to with mass-market versions – several drops on each area of her face. This led to irritation and discomfort, as the retinol in professional products is far more potent.

When we adjusted her usage and she followed the instructions, she quickly experienced amazing results: smoother skin texture, reduced pigmentation, and improved elasticity. This demonstrates the importance of using professional products correctly, as they are formulated for high efficacy.

“Professional products deliver fantastic results – but only when used correctly. Potent ingredients require proper guidance.”

My Personal Skincare Routine

As a medical-aesthetic practitioner, I’ve learned that skin needs are constantly changing, influenced by factors such as weather, stress, lifestyle, and treatments. My skincare routine is flexible – I adjust it according to what my skin needs.

• When my skin needs protection:
  In cold weather, I use the Klapp series to protect against transepidermal water loss (TEWL). These products act as a barrier against the cold, keeping my skin soft and hydrated. My favorite winter product is X-treme super lipid cream fra Klapp, which offers excellent protection and hydration. 

• When my skin needs hydration:
  On days when my skin feels dehydrated, I turn to a combination of products for intense nourishment. Favorites include  Repair Cream Concentrate from Klapp, Restorative Cream from Glo, Multibenefit 7 in 1 from Casmara, Hyal Pro 5 amp from Casmara, Uklash Hydra-Gel Eye Patches, Intense Hydra Booster Mask from Casmara, Moisturizing Mask With Retinol from Seidr.

• When my skin needs energy:
  The Glo series is my go-to for revitalizing tired skin. Its antioxidants and vitamins provide an instant glow and rejuvenation. My favorites Cleansing Milk With Glycolic Acid from Seidr, BHA Toner from Klapp, Refreshing Mist from Seidr, GlyPro Retinol Drops from Glo, Caviar Serum from Esthemax, Sensations Hydro-Nutri Revitalizing Cream from Casmara, Energizing Day & Night Cream from Seidr, Purifying Clay Mask With Glycolic Acid from Seidr, Glow Booster Mask from Casmara, Vitamin sheet mask from Esthemax, Anti Age Eye Cream from Seidr.

• When I’m short on time:
  The Seidr series offers simple yet effective care for busy days, and I always keep a mist in my bag for quick hydration.

• When my skin needs repair after treatments:
  I start with Seidr’s Hydra Soothing Gel to calm the skin, followed by Casmara Balm for nourishment. After a few days, I transition to richer products like Klapp’s Repair Cream for enhanced recovery.

“A single cream doesn’t fit all situations. By adapting your skincare to your skin’s needs, you provide it with exactly what it requires, when it needs it.”
