I Try - Pro Retinol 60 Skin Treatment at Skintopia

When Skintopia invited me to try their latest skincare innovation, the Pro Retinol 60 I jumped at the chance. 

This advanced skin treatment leverages cutting-edge technology and incorporates cosmeceutical ingredients from Dermalogica to provide an exceptional skin resurfacing experience while simultaneously rejuvenating and firming your skin's texture and tone. I was ready! I have had a treatment at Skintopia before and loved it, so I was looking forward to it.
 
I met with the therapist, and we went through my consult form, my concerns, and my existing product usage before jumping right into it. The treatment started with a double cleanse using the Bio-Therapeutic BT-Sonic wand and resurfaced with Dermalogica's Daily Microfoliant. The therapist then stopped and checked over my skin; she tested my hydration levels and ensured she was happy this was the treatment for me. 

We then went deep with a Light Energy Masque. The mask, combined with LED Lights, is tailored to the condition of your skin and worked magic for 20 minutes! Please don't wear any jewelry because during these 20 minutes, I went to heaven with a mini massage, and she gave me the choice of hand, arm, décolletage. 

Then, the therapist followed with nano-infusion or retinol fusion, as in this case. The therapist applied Retinol Ion-active and performed a nano-infusion using a small device. The remainder of the product is then gently pressed/patted into your skin and left to absorb for approximately 1 minute.

Following this, we moved into step 5, the Retinol Accelerator. With gloved hands, the Retinol Accelerator is applied to your face. Up to two layers can be applied, allowing one minute between applications. In my case, it was left on for 5 minutes, and while I relaxed, the therapist finished with a head massage.

This facial is really customizable. The amount of time on my skin is decided based on skin needs. Sometimes, you could even leave the Retinol Accelerator on your skin for up to 4 hours before cleansing at home. We landed on 5 minutes for my skin, which we cleansed again before reapplying skincare, including the all-important SPF. 

We discussed aftercare, the next week, and the next steps. We also discussed skincare, and I learned a lot, a lot. Crucial parts of my routine that related to my needs were missing. 

If you're looking for some skin loving Skintopia is perfect, they are all about results first skin treatements, but i left feeling relaxed, my skin glowing and feeling really good.
