Enzyme Therapy and the skin barrier.

We have all felt that need to have a good old scrub and buff off those dead skin cells. The want for our skin to feel fresh and smooth is a normal one.

The thing is, when everything is running like clockwork, our skin will naturally let go of the skin cells that have done their job and can now become dust. When our skin is not cooperating, this process slows and we may feel our skin is rough, congested, or dehydrated.

The safest way to encourage the “done cells” to let go without challenging the barrier of the skin is a gentle enzymatic treatment. At Plume Skin, we choose Dermaviduals Enzyme Treatment Therapy. Pineapple and papaya enzymes mimic the way enzymes within our skin work in this process. The kaolin base provides a calming effect, making this a treatment suitable for even sensitive skin.

This Enzyme Therapy is included in most of our facials as it prepares the skin for the following steps (LED or actives infusion).

In the short and long term, improving the skin’s function is our goal. This in turn will encourage the natural desquamation of skin cells, removing the need to frequently exfoliate.

For our regular facial clients, an Enzyme Therapy monthly is suitable, more frequently when working on congestion.

All in all, exfoliating is certainly beneficial when done right and not overdone.
