What is Sensitivity?

Sensitive skin is a common concern that affects all ages, though it can be particularly frustrating due to its unpredictable nature. Characterised by redness, irritation, dryness, and an increased reaction to products or environmental factors, sensitivity can leave skin feeling uncomfortable and looking uneven. Sensitive skin can manifest as a reaction to a variety of triggers, including skincare products, harsh climates, allergies, or underlying conditions like eczema or rosacea.

While the exact causes of sensitivity can vary from person to person, it commonly stems from a compromised skin barrier, which is unable to effectively protect against external irritants and moisture loss. Genetic predisposition plays a role for some, but lifestyle factors such as stress, pollution, and even diet can exacerbate the condition. Sensitive skin may flare up unexpectedly, making it challenging to find the right balance between soothing and strengthening the skin.

Sensitivity can occur in any skin type – oily, dry, or combination – and requires a tailored approach to both skincare and treatment. The goal is to calm inflammation, rebuild the skin’s barrier, and introduce products that nourish without triggering further irritation.

With a personalised treatment plan, sensitivity can be managed, allowing you to enjoy healthier, calmer skin without constant flare-ups.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is skin sensitivity?

Skin sensitivity refers to a heightened reaction of the skin to external factors such as skincare products, environmental elements (like wind or sun), or even temperature changes. It can result in symptoms like redness, irritation, dryness, itching, or a burning sensation.
What causes skin sensitivity?

Several factors can contribute to skin sensitivity, including genetic predisposition, an impaired skin barrier, harsh skincare products, environmental pollutants, or medical conditions like eczema or rosacea. Hormonal changes and stress may also exacerbate sensitivity.
How can I tell if my skin is sensitive?

Common signs of sensitive skin include frequent redness, irritation after using skincare products, tightness, itching, and visible capillaries. If your skin often reacts to changes in temperature, exposure to wind, or certain fabrics, this could also indicate sensitivity.
How is sensitive skin diagnosed?

We can assess your skin’s response to products, environmental factors, and any underlying conditions that may contribute to its sensitivity.

  • Energy-Based Devices: Low-energy treatments for soothing skin conditions without causing irritation.
Are there lifestyle changes that can help with skin sensitivity?

Yes, maintaining a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, staying hydrated, managing stress levels, and avoiding exposure to extreme temperatures can help. Protecting your skin from UV rays and pollutants is also crucial in reducing sensitivity.
Can sensitive skin be cured?

While skin sensitivity may not have a permanent cure, it can be significantly improved and managed with the right treatments, skincare products, and lifestyle adjustments. Over time, you can build up the skin’s tolerance and reduce reactions.
Should I avoid all active ingredients if I have sensitive skin?

Not necessarily. Certain active ingredients like niacinamide and hyaluronic acid can be beneficial for sensitive skin. The key is to use the right formulations and introduce them slowly into your routine. A consultation can help customise your regime to ensure minimal irritation.
