Dull or Dry Skin

Dull, dry, or dehydrated skin is a common concern experienced by nearly everyone at some point.

These changes can affect not only how the skin feels but also its overall appearance. Understanding the underlying causes of these conditions is essential for determining effective treatment options.
One of the most common culprits is the buildup of dead skin cells (keratinocytes) on the skin’s surface. Keratinocytes are produced in the basal layer of the epidermis (stratum basale) and gradually migrate to the outermost layer (stratum corneum). During this process, these cells become flatter and drier before being naturally shed. However, when the shedding process is insufficient, dead skin cells accumulate, leading to a dull, lacklustre complexion. This issue can be addressed by incorporating regular exfoliation through topical skincare or professional exfoliative treatments to rejuvenate the skin.
Another significant factor contributing to dry and dull skin is the depletion of natural hyaluronic acid, a vital substance that helps retain moisture in the skin. Over time, aging, hormonal changes such as menopause, environmental and lifestyle factors, and sun exposure reduce the skin’s natural reserves of hyaluronic acid, leaving it dehydrated and prone to fine lines and wrinkles. This loss of hydration compromises the skin’s plumpness and radiance. Fortunately, treatments like biostimulators, biorevitalisation, and microneedling can replenish hyaluronic acid levels, restoring hydration, improving skin texture, and revitalising a tired complexion.

Treatment Options

Medical Skincare

Medical skincare can be highly effective in treating congested or oily skin by targeting the underlying causes of excess sebum production and clogged pores. Ingredients like alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and retinoids are essential in controlling oil levels, exfoliating the skin, and preventing the build-up of dead skin cells that can contribute to congestion. These powerful ingredients help refine the skin’s texture and promote a clear, balanced complexion. At Leicester MediSpa, we can offer a tailored prescription skincare regimen designed to address your specific concerns, ensuring that your daily routine is optimised to reduce oiliness and maintain clear, healthy skin. Our personalised consultations ensure that you receive the right treatment plan to achieve your desired skin goals.

Biorevitalisation

Bio-revitalisation is an advanced skin treatment designed to rejuvenate dull, dehydrated, and tired skin by injecting hyaluronic acid directly into the skin layers. Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration, elasticity, and radiance. Often combined with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, this treatment works to rehydrate, brighten, and smooth the skin, making it an ideal solution for anyone seeking to revive their complexion. Unlike traditional moisturisers or serums applied topically, bio-revitalisation treatments deliver active ingredients beneath the skin’s surface for deeper hydration and cellular stimulation. These treatments typically involve higher concentrations of hyaluronic acid than mesotherapy, ensuring long-lasting hydration and improved skin texture. As the hyaluronic acid integrates with the skin, it helps to replenish moisture levels, smooth fine lines, and restore a healthy glow.skin health, and enhance overall well-being.

Polynucleotides

Polynucleotides are an advanced bio-stimulator that offers an effective solution for treating dull or dry skin by stimulating collagen production and promoting skin regeneration. Delivered through fine needle injections beneath the skin, polynucleotides activate fibroblast cells, which are crucial for collagen synthesis and skin renewal; thickening the skin. This targeted approach helps restore the skin’s natural radiance by enhancing its texture and tone, while also improving moisture retention for a smoother, more hydrated complexion. Polynucleotides also possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, helping to reduce redness and protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by environmental factors like UV rays and pollution. This innovative treatment works by harnessing the body’s natural regenerative processes, restoring elasticity, and achieving a refreshed, youthful, and revitalised appearance.

Microneedling with Exosomes

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine needles to create micro-channels in the skin’s surface, which stimulates the skin’s natural healing response and encourages the production of collagen and elastin. The depth of the needling and the topical nutrients applied during the treatment play a significant role in determining the procedure’s effectiveness. This treatment is particularly beneficial for improving skin texture, tone, and reducing the appearance of acne scars. By activating the body’s regenerative processes, microneedling helps to minimise scars and imperfections, leaving the skin smoother and more even.

When combined with exosomes, microneedling offers enhanced benefits with reduced downtime. Exosomes are tiny extracellular vesicles that play a key role in cellular communication and regeneration. They deliver targeted signals to skin cells, stimulating repair and rejuvenation. Exosomes contain thousands of growth factors, peptides, cytokines, and nutrients with hyaluronic acid designed to support skin regeneration. This powerful combination boosts the effectiveness of microneedling, improving overall skin texture and tone, reducing acne scarring, and promoting cellular repair. Additionally, exosomes help reduce inflammation, improve pigmentation, boost collagen and elastin production, and improve natural skin hydration thus, accelerating healing and delivering superior results with minimal downtime. Microneedling with exosomes is an ideal treatment for those looking to rejuvenate their skin and improve its appearance.

CO2 Laser

Carbon dioxide (CO2) laser resurfacing is considered the gold standard treatment for acne scars. Fractional CO2 laser utilises advanced technology to deliver targeted, controlled micro-injuries to the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of new collagen, elastin, and natural skin hydrators. As the skin repairs itself, scarred and uneven areas are gradually replaced with smoother, rejuvenated skin, improving both texture and tone.

More ..

Unlike traditional resurfacing methods, fractional CO2 laser technology treats only a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving surrounding tissue intact to promote faster healing and minimise downtime. This approach allows us to tailor treatments to the specific needs of your scars—whether rolling, boxcar, or ice-pick—while maintaining safety and comfort. With each session, visible improvements become more apparent, as scarred tissue remodels and healthy skin takes its place.
