The Dermaviduals Adjustment Phase

​

​

​

We practice 'corneotherapywhich focuses on the restoration, preservation and maintenance of one’s stratum corneum (top layer of skin) and the skin's barrier defence systems, while selected home care from your Skin Treatment Therapist along with in clinic treatment modalities are designed to preserve the integrity of your epidermis (the outer layer of skin) at ALL times.

​

Corneotherapy is a way of treating skin and this methodology of treatment only works when physiological components that mimic your skin's structure and function are applied directly to the skin (outside in therapy), while only the purest of ingredients are sourced from around the world to which then go through highly strict Corneotherapeutic regulations to which MUST meet this criteria of repair, replenish and regenerate.

We have the ability to adapt Dermaviduals skincare products to the individual without any hype, unless of course one is new to the range then quite possibly there might be a few lumps and bumps along the way to your unique journey of skin health.

If your epidermis is not functioning as it should because of an underlying medical condition/medications, poor nutrition or you have been using skincare/makeup products that don't work with the physiology of the skin, then sadly the natural defence systems within your epidermis are slowly but surely deteriorating away; whether you can see physically see it happening or not.

​

Corneotherapy is designed to awaken your skin’s innate immunity by removing toxic waste matter from the largest organ of your body, and so if one has been using skincare with fragrances, emulsifiers, preservatives, parabens, silicones, amines, colours and dyes and you’re starting on a Dermaviduals home care prescription for the first time, then one can possibly experience any of the following:

-dryness

-flakiness

-more irritation/inflammation

-more congestion than usual

-feeling tight

-overall imbalance

-purging (acne)

​

We would like to severely stress that not all clients when starting on Dermaviduals will experience this transition. If you have a huge cosmetic chemistry history for example, then there is a good chance that your skin is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Corneotherapy is a lifestyle choice and therefore, your responsibility to make sure that anything that touches your skin meets the criteria of Corneotherapy; yes, ladies (and gents), this also includes your makeup and fake tan!

​

Why you might ask? Dermaviduals has a very effective delivery system? Liposomes and Nanoparticles composed of Phosphatidylcholine will allow for non Corneotherapeutic matter (conventional skincare/makeup etc) to hitchhike their way past the stratum corneum, through the barrier defence systems of the epidermis to which then can trigger an onset immune system response! Please, don’t be a ‘chemist’ and mix your Dermaviduals products with any other skincare/makeup range that you might have within your bathroom. Absolutely 100% essential!

 

Lastly, Dermaviduals is extremely potent. And we mean it. When we recommend introducing slowly, GO LOW, GO SLOW, pretty pleeeease don’t be too gung ho and give yourself a red rash response because of misuse!!!

​

Please be sure to keep your Dermaviduals Skin Therapist up to date with any skin improvements, concerns or questions and regularly send in photos of your skin.
