Would medical grade skincare products work better for me?

Posted February 16, 2012 1:10 pm by Dr. Mark M. Hamilton, M.D., FACS in Skin Care

Question:
I spend a lot of money on top of the lines skincare products from the department store but I don’t know that I am really getting much out of them. Would medical grade skincare products work better for me? I am nearing 40 and I feel like my skin just isn’t as great as it used to be.

Answer:
Over the counter skincare products are cosmetically elegant, although the active ingredient inside isn’t as affective as medical grade. As we approach our 40’s our skin’s natural shedding process slows down therefore requiring more maintenance. Routine exfoliation using Retinols and AHA’s are important as well as antioxidants and sunscreen to protect the skin. Most cosmetic practices carry medical grade skincare products. Our Aesthetic Department offers skincare consultations to help guide each individual into a customized skin maintenance routine.
