My dermatologist, Marledi Dizon, just mildly scolded me for not visiting her for close to four or five months already, as I was busy with lots of things. I remember that she was able to save my skin by visiting her office every three weeks, and a monthly maintenance with my favorite peeling session was done to keep my skin not-so-troublesome.
If you ask me if one visit to the dermatologist would save your skin, I’d say not. It takes one skin cycle, which is three months, for skin to improve. So if you have problem skin ( oily, blemish-prone ) like mine, take into heart that you need to visit your dermatologist ( or a new one ) at least three times before judging if he/she is the dermatologist for you. In my case, I invested 3 months of going to her office every three weeks, and I had drastic improvement. My skin is not as blemish-prone as before, and though it’s still oily, a monthly peeling session just makes my skin become better, and better!
Speaking of peeling, and going back to my story, with my long absence, I’ve had micro-comedones form on my forehead ( itago nalang natin sa tawag na “butlig” hahaha! ), and some stubborn comedones here and there. I’m lucky that I did not have any angry, red inflammations ( thanks to MaMa Lotion, now called M2 Skin Refinish ) With that, she told me that she was going aggressive and will apply more peeling solution ( PCASkin, the best, and safest there is! ), so I should expect the peeling on my skin on the next few days to be more noticeable, as PCASkin peels , when done, are hardly noticeable, and have really really fine micropeeling ( love it! )
My dermatologist loves Vitamin C, and really strongly recommends Vitamin C serums right after having a diamond peel is performed, or any kind of chemical peeling. What I’m using now? The Body Shop Vitamin C Facian Radiance Powder Mix.
