Skincare for 0ver 60s:
In your 60s, skin responds to comfort and reinforcement rather than aggression, Barrier restoration become the priority, with nourishment hydrators, lipid-rich creams and regenerative formulas such as Adipeau helping the skin rebuild volume and resilience. Supplements, nutrition and a considered, ongoing treatment plan ensure the complexion remans supported, balanced and radiant.
Skin Care advice for those in their 30s
As we move through our 60s, we can continue treating the skin similarly to the approach in our 50s, but with an even greater focus on hydration and improving overall skin quality. Skin peels and skin boosters can work wonders by evening out tone and texture, reducing the appearance of blemishes, and minimising lines and wrinkles. During this decade, the skin tends to become looser around the face and body, with more pronounced uneven skin tone, pigmentation, and a significant reduction in elasticity and firmness.
To address these concerns, treatments such as HIFU, EMlift, Dermaforce, radio frequency, and mesotherapy are highly effective, alongside microneedling and peels for boosting skin health.
-
I would recommend Moringa Melt by Marie Reynolds. While initially a rich balm, when water is added, it effortlessly emulsifies into a silky, milky cleanser, effectively removing impurities.
-
I would recommend the Hyalogy P-effect essence by Forlle'd. This is clinically proven to show a reduction in the depth of lines and wrinkles.
-
I would recommend the Hyalogy Alpha serum by Forlle'd. This age-defying serum is based on nanotechnology. Hyalogy Alpha serum is effective for reviving, firming and 'lifting' skin which shows signs of ageing, loss of firmness and elasticity.
-
I would recommend the Hyalogy Daily and Nightly eye cream by Forlle'd. This eye cream perfectly recreates the structure of skin lipids, reducing irritation and sensitivity.
-
I would recommend the Hyalogy Platinum face cream by Forlle'd. Hyalogy Platinum cream prevents the impact of photo-ageing and corrects the signs of premature ageing. Due to a powerful complex of biomimetic peptides with patented ionized HA molecules, the cream increases the skin’s intrinsic capacity to repair. Platinum face cream provides long-lasting, deep moisturisation, potent antioxidant protection, and detoxification. As a result, skin structure and appearance are visibly improved. The skin's healthy glow is restored. Premature ageing signs are corrected, and the impact of inflammation and environmental ageing is reduced.
-
In keeping with the Forlle'd range, I recommend the Hyalogy UV Intense protector SPF 50. This sunscreen is used both during insolation and after intensive cosmetic procedures (lasers, IPL, pilings, injections, asthetic operations, and aesthetic procedures). Hyalogy UV intense protector is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
-
For a night cream, I would recommend the same product as I did for a day cream, as this Hyology Platinum face cream by Forlle can be used day and night.
Your daily essentials
Recommended treatments for those in their 60s
As a professional facialist, I would recommend several treatments tailored specifically for your skin in your 60s to enhance your natural glow and address early signs of ageing. Here are a few options:
-
This treatment helps oxygenate the skin, boost collagen production, and cleanse, lift, tone, hydrate, and tighten. Deep hydration with nourishing masks and serums effectively combats dryness, leaving your skin radiant and refreshed.
-
This works very well for intensive skin renewal. Combine this with Nappage Mesotherapy which provides microinjections of vitamins, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants to dramatically increase hydration and brightness.
-
HIFU stands for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound. This treatment uses ultrasonic waves to penetrate the deeper layers of skin. This causes controlled trauma to trigger the skin's natural repair and collagen production response.
-
3D EMlift is an advanced device that combines cutting-edge technologies proven to deliver impressive facial rejuvenation and anti-aging results.
This innovative system uses High-Intensity Focused electromagnetic energy combined with radio frequency to remodel and restore your skin.
-
Radio frequency works by gently heating the epidermis, causing the collagen and elastin fibers to retract and lift. This gives a more lifted and contoured appearance.
-
BeautifEye mesotherapy is a treatment specifically designed for the eye area, and Nappage mesotherapy is designed for the full face, neck, and décollatée.
Both BeautifEye and Nappage deliver a unique cocktail of vitamins, minerals, growth factors, peptides, and amino acids into the skin through micro-injections. These brighten the complexion, smooth out wrinkles and provide a youthful glow, hydrating the skin from the inside out.
