Dull Complexion

Dull Complexion

Dull Complexion: What Is It?

Dull skin tone is a result of excess dead skin cells that build up on the surface of your skin. Your skin can lose its natural luminosity because of dryness, damaged cells, or slow cell turnover, all of which can happen at any age and in any season of the year. This can make your face feel rough or bumpy and give it a dull and lackluster appearance. Pollutants in our environment can also create a dull appearance on the skin. Free radicals within our air can damage collagen and stimulate pigment production over time, leaving your skin’s tone and texture uneven. Stress and hormonal fluctuations can also cause those fine lines to appear. When your cortisol levels spike during high stress, your blood flow goes to your vital organs, not to your face, leaving your skin looking sallow. As always, the sun certainly plays a factor in how our skin appears as it is the main cause of weakened collagen. Dull Complexions appear lackluster and are absent of youthful, radiant glow.

What Causes A Dull Complexion?

A Dull Complexion can be the result of one or many things: health, age, skin build-up, excess pigmentation, pore congestion, incompatible skincare, the need to elevate skin hygiene, and dehydration.

With so many factors contributing to a dull appearance, our Illuminate Skin Therapies therapists will provide you with a comprehensive skin consultation to determine the source of the skin’s dull appearance. We will then work with you to develop a treatment program that will bring the natural glow back to your skin and help prevent these excess dead skin cells in the future.

Who Can Experience Dull Complexion?

Anyone can experience a dull complexion at any time. Environmental factors, skincare, diet, and lifestyle habits can cause your complexion to lose its radiance.

What Are The Most Effective Treatments?

  • We Recommend:
    • Complexion Rehab
    • Radiance + Refresh
    • Radiance Micropeel
    • Antioxidants: Vitamin C, Alpha Arbutin, Astaxanthin
    • Regenerative Ingredients: Backuchiol, Vitamin A, E
    • Hydrators: Hyaluronic Acid and Tremella Mushroom
  • The Benefits:
    • Complexion Rehab: This is the ideal starting point, because it encourages detoxification, establishing a baseline of skin- wellness, which promotes your vitality and glows. Once the skin is detoxified, decongested, and inflammation is reduced layering in services like Radiance Micropeel and Radiance + Refresh remove will layers of skin build-up to smooth, refine and make skin more receptive to nourishers, moisture, and hydration that will elevate your skin’s most radiant glow.
    • Laser Therapies: In addition to revitalizing skin, laser energy enhances cellular turnover (skin efficiency) that slows with age. By stimulating the lively turnover of cells, dead skin is eliminated faster and the radiant glow that’s being generated from within is revealed.
    • Regenerative Ingredients: Antioxidants and active hydrators can aid in minimizing congestion: Hyaluronic Acid and Tremella Mushroom have been shown to be highly effective hydrators. Antioxidants and regenerative ingredients will enhance skin efficiency, detoxify, and promote an environment in which healthy cellular turnover can occur; shedding and repopulating skin so your radiant glow can thrive.
