Combination skin is a skin type that exhibits characteristics of both oily and dry skin. Typically, individuals with combination skin experience an oily T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) while the rest of the face may be dry or normal. This unique skin type requires a balanced skincare routine to address the varying needs of each area.Combination skin can be tricky to manage, as you need to treat oily areas without aggravating dryness and vice versa.
Oily T-zone, dry cheeks is a common combination skin type. The forehead, nose and chin produce excess oil, while the cheeks and under-eye areas feel dry and may flake. This skin type often leads to clogged pores in the T-zone, while dry patches develop on the outer areas of the face.
This type of combination skin has distinct areas of excess oil and dryness. Oily areas, usually around the forehead, nose and chin, contrast with dry zones on the cheeks and under the eyes. This imbalance requires a balanced skincare regimen to prevent breakouts and hydrate dry areas while controlling oil production.
Sensitive combination skin features both oily and dry zones, with the added challenge of skin irritation. The T-zone may be oily, while the cheeks and under-eye area are dry and easily irritated. This type of combination skin requires gentle treatments to avoid flare-ups, redness or increased dryness while balancing oil levels.
HydraFacial deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates your skin, providing a customized treatment for combination skin. It balances oil production in the T-zone while hydrating dry areas. This non-invasive procedure improves skin texture, radiance, and overall skin health, leaving your complexion fresh, smooth, and glowing.
Microneedling improves skin texture by stimulating collagen production, targeting both dry patches and oily zones. This treatment reduces pore size, excess oil, and encourages skin regeneration. It helps balance the complexion by improving tone, texture, and elasticity, resulting in smoother, healthier, and more even skin.
Profhilo is an injectable treatment that deeply hydrates and rejuvenates combination skin. It improves skin elasticity, reduces fine lines, and ensures even moisture distribution across oily and dry areas. Profhilo enhances skin firmness and hydration, promoting a more youthful, balanced complexion by balancing moisture levels throughout the face.
We assess your skin type and concerns through a detailed consultation, ensuring that we understand your combination skin needs. Our experts will then create a tailored treatment plan to balance oil production and address dry patches effectively.
We develop a personalised treatment plan using a combination of HydraFacial, microneedling or Profhilo to address both the oily and dry areas of your skin. Each treatment is selected to enhance your skin’s texture and balance.
After your treatments, we provide continuous support to help you maintain balanced skin. We offer personalised aftercare advice, product recommendations and follow-up treatments to ensure long-term results and healthy skin.
