Healing Sensitive Skin: Rebuilding Your Skin Barrier for Lasting Resilience

An impaired skin barrier and sensitivity can cause ongoing discomfort, leaving your skin red, dry, and irritated. At the root of these concerns is often a compromised barrier, which can happen due to various factors, from skincare routines to daily habits. The skin barrier is your body’s first line of defense against environmental stressors, helping to retain moisture and block harmful substances. When this barrier is weakened, it leads to an increased risk of sensitivity and irritation.

Disruption to the skin barrier can be caused by using the incorrect skincare products—those with harsh ingredients, for example, or overuse of active treatments. Other contributors include poor diet choices, which can reduce essential nutrients that support skin health, and lifestyle factors, such as stress, lack of sleep, and exposure to pollution. These factors all strain the skin’s natural defenses, leading to an impaired barrier that no longer protects the way it should.

At Instincts Skin, we specialise in helping you repair and strengthen this barrier. Our process begins with a thorough skin consultation to understand your unique skin needs, sensitivities, and the factors affecting your skin health. This step is essential, allowing us to create a treatment plan that’s fully customised to your skin’s requirements, setting you on the path to calm, resilient skin.

To rebuild and reinforce your skin barrier, we offer a range of restorative treatments. LED light therapy is a gentle, non-invasive option that promotes natural healing, reduces inflammation, and is safe even for highly sensitive skin. Our Vitamin Infusion treatment provides your skin with a potent dose of nutrients, replenishing its strength and restoring moisture essential to barrier health. For those ready to stimulate deeper layers, our Skin Needling treatment releases natural growth factors that aid in skin healing and strengthening, enhancing your skin’s resilience over time.

Each treatment plan we create is unique, designed to heal and transform your skin from within. By targeting both internal and external factors affecting your skin, we aim to restore its natural balance and fortify its defenses.
