Everybody loves their holiday glow, but here's what your skin is really telling you. That gorgeous glowy tan that we all love when we come back from holiday, that's your skin really showing up, that sign of UV damage. So when the sun touches our skin or affects our skin, it stimulates the melanin production within our skin, which is essentially our body's response at protecting our skin.
And that's what then makes us look tanned. So it's not really a gorgeous tan, it's actually a little bit of sun damage that we shouldn't be too happy with, if I'm honest. Secondly, dehydration.
When we come back from holiday, our skin can sometimes feel a little bit tight, a little bit irritated, and that is the dehydration. That is your skin crying out for a little bit of help, a little bit of TLC, and that's what we can help you with here. So come down and see us at Wellface, we will look after you.
Let's get your skin back and ready for the autumn time. Whether that's medical grade skincare, skin boosters to help with your hydration, and just getting a really good hydrofacial in to really quench the thirst of the skin, it's a fabulous place to start. Always followed by things like our BBL, that's going to help with that sun damage that you may or may have not happened over the summer months.
So yes, you might look gorgeous, but please don't be fooled. Please come down, let's analyse your skin. Let's see how we can help you.
