What Does Skincare Do?

There are many factors that affect your skin, both internal and external. While skincare has become more of a focal point, it is often one of the last things people consider when caring for their skin. Maintaining a consistent skincare routine can help address your current skin concerns while also helping prevent or slow further signs of skin deterioration. A good skincare routine can protect, hydrate, and improve the overall appearance and texture of your skin. At Greensboro Plastic Surgery, we provide our North Carolina patients with a full line of professional skincare products from Colorescience , Obagi, Epicutis, and iS Clinical to help maintain and improve the health, texture, and appearance of their skin with a simple, consistent routine.

Why is Skincare Important?

While it’s often an afterthought for many of us, proper skin care is important for numerous reasons. Not only can a good skincare routine help keep your complexion looking healthy and glowing, but it can also prevent acne, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and make your skin look more youthful. Proactively caring for your skin is also much easier and cheaper than repairing potential skin problems in the future.

Glass Skin Protocol

If you’re looking for healthy, glowing skin with no downtime, the Glass Skin Protocol at Greensboro Plastic Surgery is the perfect treatment. This 75-minute facial combines dermaplaning, the BioRePeel Blue, and a CO2Lift® mask to gently exfoliate, boost collagen production, deeply hydrate, and leave your skin looking smooth, radiant, and event-ready. While you’ll notice an immediate glow with plumper, more hydrated skin, this treatment also helps improve skin texture, acne, pigmentation, redness, dullness, and dehydration over time. Most healthy adults are great candidates, as long as they are not pregnant, breastfeeding, have an active skin infection, or a compromised skin barrier.

“ABC’s” of skincare

While every patient will have their own unique skincare requirements, we recommend the “ABC’s” of skincare: Vitamin A, Broad Spectrum SPF, and Vitamin C. By using these basic but fundamental products, you should be able to see phenomenal skin results.

Vitamin A

  • Obagi Retivance: An anti-aging retinaldehyde-based skin treatment designed to improve complexion, refine texture, and visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles. It combines clinically studied ingredients like retinaldehyde, antioxidants, and soothing botanicals to support firmer, smoother skin while being generally well-tolerated.
  • Skin Better Alpharet: AlphaRet Cream is an anti-aging face cream featuring patented AlphaRet Technology that combines a retinoid with an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) to deliver visible skin rejuvenation with little-to-no irritation. High efficacy, high tolerability.

Broad Spectrum SPF

  • Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Flex SPF 50: a lightweight mineral sunscreen with tinted color coverage immediately evens skin tone for a flawless look. This hydrating, antioxidant-rich all-mineral actives formula is powered by patented EnviroScreen® Technology – which means comprehensive defense against UVA/UVB, Blue Light, Pollution, and Infrared radiation, combined with advanced antioxidants and nourishing, hydrating ingredients for long-term skin health.

Vitamin C

  • Obagi Vitamin C: Experience the benefits of medical-grade Vitamin C with Obagi’s Professional-C Collection. As one of the most potent antioxidants in skincare, Vitamin C can help skin look brighter, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and support collagen production. Our dermatologist-approved serums are designed to help enhance skin radiance while working to provide protection against environmental stressors.
