SKIN CARE AFTER PREGNANCY

Skin changes after pregnancy

  • Stretch marks : the appearance of stretch marks is quite common in pregnant women.
    They primarily develop on the abdomen, breasts, hips, and thighs due to the rapid stretching of the skin.
  • Hyperpigmentation : melasma, or pregnancy mask, is a form of hyperpigmentation that appears on the face. It usually fades after childbirth, but in some cases, it may persist. 
  • Skin laxity : the elasticity and firmness of the skin decrease.
  • Postpartum acne : hormonal fluctuations can also trigger an acne outbreak after pregnancy, even in women who had never experienced acne before.
  • Dry skin : hormonal changes can dry out the skin, making it more sensitive.

Skinboosters

Skinboosters are an effective treatment to revitalize facial skin after pregnancy. They improve hydration, elasticity, and dull skin appearance. This hyaluronic acid provides deep, intense, and long-lasting hydration. It also stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture and firmness.
This procedure is ideal for reducing signs of fatigue, smoothing fine lines, and restoring the skin’s natural radiance. In just a few sessions, Skinboosters give the skin a younger, fresher, and more luminous look, helping mothers regain their glow. Consulting a specialist in aesthetic medicine allows for personalized treatment and optimized results, ensuring radiant skin after pregnancy.

PRX-T33 Peel

The PRX-T33 peel is one of the solutions to plump the facial skin after pregnancy.
This needle-free biorevitalizing treatment combines hydrogen peroxide and low-concentration trichloroacetic acid (TCA), allowing for deep exfoliation without visible peeling.
PRX-T33 stimulates cell regeneration and collagen production, improving the skin’s elasticity and firmness. After pregnancy, the skin may often appear dull, tired, and show pigmentation.
PRX-T33 evens out the complexion, reduces imperfections, and restores the skin’s natural radiance. Additionally, this treatment is quick, painless, and requires no recovery time, making it particularly suitable for new mothers with busy schedules.
By restoring the skin’s vitality and glow, the PRX-T33 peel helps boost self-confidence and regain a fresh and rejuvenated appearance after pregnancy.

Superficial peel

A superficial peel is an excellent option to revitalize the facial skin after pregnancy.

This treatment gently exfoliates the superficial skin layers, improves texture and radiance, reduces pigmentation spots, and minimizes small imperfections, such as fine lines and enlarged pores. Additionally, it enhances the absorption of skincare products applied afterward. A superficial peel is non-invasive and requires minimal recovery time, making it an ideal solution for new mothers looking to restore a bright and even complexion.

HydraFacial

HydraFacial is a recommended skincare treatment to refresh the face after pregnancy. This procedure combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration in a single session.
A patented technology is used to eliminate impurities and dead skin cells while infusing the skin with hydrating and nourishing serums. After pregnancy, the skin becomes dehydrated, its texture uneven, and its complexion dull. HydraFacial helps restore the skin’s moisture balance, improve texture, and enhance its radiance. This treatment is gentle and non-invasive, making it ideal for new mothers looking for visible results without downtime or side effects.
In just a few sessions, the skin is transformed, appearing smoother, more radiant, and visibly rejuvenated, allowing women to feel confident and glowing again after pregnancy.

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is an aesthetic medicine technique particularly beneficial for post-pregnancy facial skin. This treatment involves the injection of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and hyaluronic acid directly into the dermis. These nutrients revitalize and hydrate the skin, stimulate cell regeneration, and boost collagen and elastin production. After pregnancy, hormonal fluctuations and stress can cause the skin to lose its glow and firmness. Mesotherapy restores radiance, reduces signs of fatigue, and smooths minor imperfections, helping new mothers quickly regain a fresh and luminous complexion.

This treatment is non-invasive and allows for an immediate return to daily activities.
The mesolift (facial mesotherapy) is particularly suited for new mothers looking to improve their skin’s appearance. After just a few sessions, the skin becomes smoother, brighter, and visibly rejuvenated.

Laser peel

The laser peel is an effective treatment to reduce pigmentation. Hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy can cause the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone, such as melasma. This laser treatment targets and eliminates melanin deposits responsible for pigmentation.
Additionally, this procedure stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture and firmness. The results are quick and visible : dark spots fade, and the complexion becomes more even.
The laser peel is particularly effective in areas where imperfections are difficult to correct with traditional methods.

The only drawback is a social downtime of three to seven days.

Existe-t-il des soins adaptés aux jeunes mamans pour retrouver une peau éclatante ?

Oui, des soins doux et efficaces comme les peelings superficiels, les soins hydratants (Hydrafacial) et les injections de vitamines (mésothérapie) sont parfaits pour revitaliser la peau des jeunes mamans. Ces soins redonnent de l’éclat, resserrent les pores et uniformisent le teint en douceur.

Les traitements non invasifs comme la radiofréquence, les peelings et les massages drainants peuvent aider à raffermir la peau après l’accouchement. L’application de crèmes raffermissantes enrichies en collagène et en élastine est également recommandée pour renforcer les tissus cutanés.

Oui, les vergetures peuvent être atténuées grâce à des traitements comme les peelings, les lasers fractionnés ou la radiofréquence. Ces techniques stimulent la production de collagène, améliorant la texture et l’apparence de la peau. Des soins hydratants et nourrissants complètent efficacement ces traitements.

Pour raviver l’éclat du teint, les soins exfoliants doux, les peelings légers, les soins à base de vitamine C, et la mésothérapie revitalisante sont très efficaces. Une bonne hydratation, une alimentation riche en antioxydants et une routine de soins régulière contribuent également à retrouver un teint frais et lumineux.

Après l’accouchement, les variations hormonales peuvent perturber la production de sébum, rendant la peau plus sèche et sensible. De plus, le manque de sommeil et le stress peuvent accentuer cette sécheresse. Il est conseillé d’utiliser des soins doux, hydratants et apaisants pour restaurer la barrière cutanée.
