ETHNIC SKIN NIGHT | Meline (2024)

FAQs

What is the aftercare of Meline? ›

The aftercare regimen includes gentle washing, sunscreen barrier screams and specific MeLine products which need to be applied after 3 days. After 8 weeks, another MeLine peel or facial mask is applied.

The MeLine treatment process is described as 'controlled chemical dermabrasion' and is a customised process that uses the application of MeLine's specially formulated peel mask to lift away the top layer of dead skin cells.

Application Protocol

After cleansing the facial skin, apply a thin layer over the entire skin, massaging it in until fully absorbed. In case of irritation, use every other day for two or three weeks, before continuing to apply it daily.

Immediate side effects: Redness, swelling and flaky skin, peeling starts after 48 hours and will last for 5-7 days.

After a MELINE® chemical peel, patients can expect some redness, sunburned sensation, tightness, and mild peeling, dryness, and skin sensitivity for a few days.

You may be able to treat hyperpigmentation with over-the-counter (OTC) skin acids and retinoids. A dermatologist can also perform procedures that may help reduce its appearance. Hyperpigmentation is a medical term used to describe darker patches of skin from excess melanin production.

Anti-aging night creams help re-hydrate the skin

When the skin is optimally moisturized, wrinkles appear less pronounced. In addition, the complexion looks plump and smooth, and most notably, the skin is better able to heal and repair itself.

Do you put night cream over serum? ›

Always apply your serum first and allow it to sit a minute or two before applying your moisturizer. We'll admit there's something comforting about a night cream—that big tub of creamy softness to slather on before bed the way women have been doing since the days when lard was the preferred moisturizer.

Collagen bundles in Black skin are more compact and arranged in a way that helps to maintain structural integrity and youthful appearance for longer than white skin. Asian skin has a thicker dermis than white skin, meaning it contains more collagen.

Darker skin tends to retain the characteristics of younger skin for longer. Skin barrier function is reportedly stronger in darker skin tones (the stratum corneum is the skin barrier). Asian skin is reported to have similarities with Caucasian skin in terms of water loss and has the weakest barrier function.
