Love the Skin You're In: 7 Tips for Achieving Glowing Skin
In celebration of Valentine’s day, it's the perfect time to practice self-love and confidence—and nothing boosts confidence like healthy, radiant skin. Whether you have a romantic month planned, or prioritizing self-care, here are some Dr. Sutton approved tips to help you achieve a gorgeous glow.
1. Hydrate & Brighten Your Skin with Medical-Grade Skincare
💖 Tip: Start using medical grade moisturizers and skin brightening products to deeply hydrate and brighten the skin.
🌟 Why It Works: Dehydration can make fine lines and dullness more visible—keeping skin well-hydrated enhances its smoothness and glow.
A Patient Favourite: ZO Complexion Renewal Pads: Helps to brighten skin and clarify pores. This non-drying formulation contains Glycolic and salicylic acid to help smooth and brighten and decongest skin.
2. Radiate with a BBL Laser Treatment
💖 Tip: The BBL (BroadBand Light) Laser treatment will help to even out skin tone, reduce pigmentation, reduce redness, and create a natural radiance.
🌟 Why It Works: These treatments target hyperpigmentation, redness, and dullness, revealing fresh, clear skin within days.
3. Exfoliate!
💖 Tip: Use a physical exfoliant a few times a week for a polished, smooth complexion.
🌟 Why It Works: Exfoliation removes dead skin cells that can cause dullness, allowing your glow to shine through.
A Patient Favourite: ZO Exfoliating Polish: Gently exfoliates with magnesium oxide crystals to remove dead skin cells, revealing instantly soft, radiant skin.
4. Instant Glow-Up with a Hydrating Skin Booster
💖 Tip: Consider Skinvive treatment for an instant skin boost.
🌟 Why It Works: These treatments hydrate the skin from the inside out leaving your skin softer, more supple and with an amazing glow in just one session.
5. Enhance Your Features with a Touch of Filler and Anti-Wrinkle Injections (think Botox/Xeomin/Dysport)
💖 Tip: Lip filler, a subtle cheek refresh, or jawline contouring can enhance your natural beauty without looking overdone.
🌟 Why It Works: Small, well-placed tweaks help restore balance, structure, and hydration, giving a refreshed yet natural look. (note: the anti-wrinkle injections start setting in on day 4, so plan accordingly).
6. Treat Your Neck & Décolletage, Too!
💖 Tip: Don’t forget your neck and chest—apply your skincare products beyond your face and consider the BBL laser rejuvenation mentioned above also for this delicate area. We also love Botox and biostimulating treatments in this area as well.
🌟 Why It Works: The neck and chest are often neglected but can show signs of aging and sun damage just as much as the face.
7. Prioritize Beauty Sleep & Skin-Loving Nutrition
💖 Tip: Increase hydration, collagen-rich foods, and antioxidants while ensuring 7-9 hours of sleep.
🌟 Why It Works: Beauty truly starts from within—water, nutrient-dense foods, and rest are essential for plump, glowing skin.
