The best skin treatments to get during pregnancy

The best skin treatments to get during pregnancy

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but you may experience some changes with your skin, and have reduced options for beauty treatments.

With pregnancy comes hormonal fluctuations which can lead to various skin concerns such as dullness, pigmentation, and dehydration. It's essential to find safe and effective treatments to address these issues while ensuring the well-being of both mother and baby.

Here are the top three skin treatments we recommend at The Skin Bar to consider during pregnancy: skin needling, the Radiance DNA Facial, and the Ultimate Glow Facial.

 

1. Skin Needling

 

Our signature and most popular treatment! Skin needling, also known as microneedling, is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the use of fine needles to create micro-injuries on the skin's surface. This stimulates the body's natural healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production, which are crucial for maintaining youthful, healthy skin during pregnancy.

One of the significant benefits of skin needling during pregnancy is its ability to reduce acne scars. During pregnancy, when skin is more prone to stretching and sagging, this collagen boost can be particularly beneficial.

The stimulation of collagen through skin needling helps improve skin texture, reducing the appearance of fine lines and acne scars. This is especially helpful for pregnant women who may experience hormonal acne or uneven skin texture.

Additionally, skin needling can address melasma or hyperpigmentation, common during pregnancy, by breaking down the pigment and promoting a more even skin tone. One significant advantage of skin needling is the enhanced absorption of skincare products. The micro-channels created during the treatment allow for better penetration of serums and moisturisers.

Using pregnancy-safe products like hyaluronic acid serum or vitamin B3 serum post-treatment can maximise hydration and nourishment, leading to better skincare results.

Skin needling is a safe and non-invasive procedure with minimal risk when performed by a trained professional. Unlike treatments that use heat or harsh chemicals, skin needling is gentle and safe for pregnant women.

The depth of the needles can be adjusted according to the skin's needs and sensitivity, ensuring a controlled and safe treatment.

This treatment is highly customisable and versatile, capable of addressing specific skin concerns such as acne scars, fine lines, or pigmentation. This makes it suitable for various skin types and conditions that may arise during pregnancy.

By promoting the skin's natural healing mechanisms, skin needling encourages a healthier and more resilient complexion, aligning well with the cautious approach many women prefer during pregnancy.

Another major plus of skin needling is its minimal downtime. Most women experience only mild redness and sensitivity for a few days post-treatment, making it a convenient option for busy expectant mothers who may not have time for lengthy recovery periods.

We recommend skin needling treatments 4 weeks apart for optimal results.

 

2. Radiance DNA Facial

 

The perfect relaxing and effective treatment for you during pregnancy. The Radiance DNA Facial is a professional anti-ageing treatment designed to protect and rebuild the skin while reducing deep wrinkles and redefining facial contours.

This treatment focuses on protecting DNA integrity, reactivating vital skin functions, and fighting against skin ageing.

The Radiance DNA Facial utilises the [meso]recovery complex®, a unique combination of active ingredients selected for their properties as antioxidants, protectors, and repairers of cellular DNA.

This facial helps diminish the appearance of deep wrinkles, providing a more youthful look. It also breaks up pigmentation and evens out skin tone, leaving the complexion bright and radiant.

In addition to its anti-ageing benefits, the Radiance DNA Facial delivers deep hydration and firms the skin, enhancing its elasticity.

This treatment is recommended once a week for the best results. It is suitable for those with deep wrinkles, dull, dehydrated, aged, or pigmented skin types.

 

3. Ultimate Glow Facial

 

The Ultimate Glow Facial is perfect for an expecting mum, achieving instant, radiant skin with no downtime.

This 30-minute treatment includes LED therapy customised for your skin type, offering a quick boost in hydration while stimulating and rejuvenating skin cells at a deeper level.

One of the benefits of the Ultimate Glow Facial is its ability to provide instant results, making it ideal for special occasions or whenever you need a quick skin boost.

The LED therapy enhances cellular activity, promoting a radiant and glowing complexion. This facial contains intense brightening agents that dramatically improve skin tone and texture.
