Acne Prone Skin

Unexpected acne breakouts are everyone's worst nightmare but you aren’t alone. Canvas skin focuses on all kinds of skin concerns, especially acne. Having a skincare routine that specifically targets acne is very important especially if you’re prone to breakouts. Some products we highly recommend for acne would be vitamin c serum, retinol, lytic tx and our imera pads.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that stimulates collagen production in your skin. It contains anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce the swelling and redness that comes with acne as well as gives you a more hydrating complexion.

Retinol is a natural vitamin A derivative that exfoliates to remove dead skin cells, clogged pores and oil that can create acne. This product stimulates the production of collagen and elastin that help reduce the appearance of acne.

The last product that Canvas Skin recommends is imera pads. These pads consist of glycolicβ€” which exfoliates the skin and speeds up cell turnover, lacticβ€” that helps keep skin moisturized and salicylic acidβ€” for fighting acne by reducing inflammation and unblocking pores.

3 Ways Canvas Skin Treats Pigmentation

3 Ways Canvas Skin Treats Pigmentation

One of the most asked questions from our clients is β€œHow do I treat pigmentation?”

Hyperpigmentation describes skin that appears darker on different areas of the body. From sunspots, to hormonal changes, aging, and even acne scarring – skin changes can sometimes make you feel less confident in yourself and wondering if something like this can be treated. The short answer to that is yes! If you’re dealing with pigmentation issues, just know you aren’t alone. We offer 3 different treatment options here at Canvas Skin that can help with the fading of hyperpigmentation and brightening that skin.

The first treatment that we offer is microneedling with PRF. This treatment can benefit certain types of deeper pigmentation. It’s a noninvasive treatment that causes micro injuries to the skin, which stimulates cellular turnover and collagen production, giving you new and healthy skin. We recommend three sessions that are spaced out over 4-6 weeks to get the best results possible. With microneedling + PRF, your skin will look fresh and regenerated with little to no pigmentation issues!

The second treatment we recommend for pigmentation is a chemical peel. This is ideal for clients with more superficial pigmentation. The Perfect Derma Peel includes key ingredients such as Vitamin C, TCA, Salicylic Acid, Kojic acid, Phenol, and Glutathione. A chemical peel treats dark spots and other pigmentation by removing the top layers of the skin, allowing it to regenerate and form healthy skin in its place. Say hello to a glowing and even complexion!

Our Ella Radiance Pads are the third way Canvas Skin treats pigmentation. This is a great option that can give you significant results right at home. These pads consist of Kojic Acid, antioxidants, Vitamin C and green tea. They truly work magic by gently exfoliating the skin, while brightening uneven skin tones to reveal a radiant, fresh complexion that everyone wants! Once you start using them you will never want to go without them.

Do you have annoying skin pigmentation issues that you just can’t seem to get rid of? Come see us at Canvas Skin so we can sit down and discuss the right treatment plan for you! Let us help fade the look of pigmentation and give you a more fresh & glowing complexion. In the meantime, shop our Ella Radiance Pads online + in store!
