Teen Skin Care

Located in Edmonton, Dérmica offers the Teen Facial.
How do you address teen acne?
Teen acne can be difficult to address because teenagers’ hormones are not in balance. They are in a period of flux with little stability. In addition, some teens lack dedication when it comes to their skincare and personal grooming. As a result, (and understandably so) some parents opt out for more cost effective skincare products for their teen’s skincare.
However, the TEEN Facial is a treatment that includes a deep-cleanse and pore extractions leaving the skin feeling fresh and renewed.
Does my teen have acne?
As far as diagnosing acne, this is something that would be done by a physician. Hormones are a big factor; they are fluctuating which can cause acne. Typically we start seeing acne between the ages of 13-16 years in females, and 13-18 years in males.
Sometimes there can be dietary issue. If the acne is cystic or out of control, your teen may need to see a dermatologist first in order to go on a treatment cycle because sometimes antibiotics or acne medication such as accutane is needed to help from the inside.
How can I help my teen?
Facials
You may see your teen picking at their skin. While this can sometimes get rid of whatever buildup is in the pimple, it is typically not done properly when done at home. As a result, it leaves their skin susceptible to infections.
If you see your teen picking at their breakouts, it’s time to book them a Teen Facial. We have all the right tools and aftercare when we do extractions at the spa.
Teens and Makeup
Makeup could be blocking your teen’s skin. Makeup may not be being washed away properly. For example, not using the right products or not cleansing at all, or using products that are too strong for their skin. Having a good pre-cleanser is very important for those that are wearing heavy-based makeups, such as primers, foundations, concealers, and powders.
