With May on our doorstep and brighter days ahead it’s the perfect time to refocus on your skin. This spring/summer season is about renewal and when it comes to skin, true radiance isn’t achieved overnight. Healthy, radiant skin is built over time through intelligent treatment planning, collagen stimulation, and expert guidance. Here, we ask Dr Deirdre Fitzgerald of Dublin’s Fitzgerald Private Clinic to explain some of her most trusted treatments for achieving healthy, luminous skin.
The Foundation of Skin Rejuvenation: SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen Microneedling remains a cornerstone of modern skin rejuvenation. This all-natural treatment targets collagen loss by creating thousands of controlled micro-injuries, activating the skin’s own healing response. The result is smoother, brighter, younger-looking skin, with minimal downtime and impressive, long-term benefits. It’s an ideal treatment as we move into summer, helping to refresh skin that may feel dull or depleted after winter.
Treatment to try: SkinTrinity: Combining Microneedling, Polynucleotides and LED Light Therapy
Regenerative rejuvenation exclusive to Fitzgerald Private Clinic
Polynucleotides offer a transformative enhancement to the microneedling procedure. When applied via Microneedling, these molecules penetrate deeper skin layers. Their presence promotes enhanced skin rejuvenation and revitalisation. The science behind it is compelling: microneedling enhances the absorption of products such as polynucleotides by creating tiny microchannels in the skin. The deep penetration ensures that the skin benefits from the rejuvenating properties of polynucleotides, leading to firmer, smoother, and more revitalised skin. Dermalux LED technology is incorporated at the end to accelerate healing and reduce downtime, while providing an additional boost for optimal results.
Treatment to try: Lumecca Peak IPL
Restore clarity and luminosity
For those seeking enhanced luminosity and refinement, Lumecca Peak IPL remains one of the most transformative treatments available. By targeting pigmentation, redness, and uneven tone, IPL restores clarity and radiance, revealing a more even, polished complexion.
Treatment to try: Morpheus8 Burst
Radio frequency advanced skin rejuvenation
For those ready to take their results further, Morpheus8 Burst represents the latest evolution in radiofrequency microneedling technology. By combining radiofrequency (RF) energy with collagen induction therapy to target fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity, and textural concerns. It delivers exceptional outcomes for both facial rejuvenation and body skin quality, making it a powerful option for comprehensive skin renewal.
The device uses a series of tiny needles that penetrate the skin at different depths. Unlike traditional microneedling, the addition of RF energy heats the underlying layers of the skin, enhancing collagen and elastin production even further.This thermal energy helps to stimulate and rejuvenate the skin more efficiently than microneedling alone.
Treatment to try: Profhilo
Profhilo remains one of our most popular treatments, with good reason, due to the concentrated level of hyaluronic acid hydration being delivered to the deeper layers of the skin. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a component naturally found in the body but it depletes as we age. Profhilo is not a dermal filler, but a skin booster that works beneath the surface to remodel collagen and elastin, boosting skin on the face, neck, or décolletage. Profhilo improves skin glow and luminosity to restore a fresher, more youthful appearance.
Treatment to try: Polynucleotides & Tired Eyes
Polynucleotides are an excellent injectable treatment to boost skin quality and diminish darkness that results from thinning skin under the eyes. Not a filler, this treatment is excellent for those seeking improvement in fine lines that anti-wrinkle injections traditionally cannot treat.
