Congestion
Congestion in the skin is a build-up of oils and old skin cells on the surface of the skin. This often presents as blackheads, blocked pores, blemishes and dull skin tone. Skin can become congested for a variety of reasons including excessive oil and sebum production, issues with normal exfoliating process of the skin and use of unsuitable products (or no products at all). When targeting congestion, it is important to use a high quality at-home skincare routine that incorporate gentle yet effective exfoliants and Vitamin A to maintain a healthy skin cell turn over. These products help to gently remove the old layer of skin and encourage youthful skin. Please note, when using these products, you must also be using a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen daily as the newer skin is more vulnerable to sun damage. Other treatment options to treat acne and congestion includes customised COCO Medi-Facials, Broad Band Light (BBL™) Forever Clear and Healite II LED Light Therapy.
