Story summary

Dr Joseph Hkeik of Sydney’s All Saint Clinic recommends a CoolPeel laser resurfacing procedure for those seeking skin rejuvenation before the party season. The treatment, which has minimal downtime of about two days, brightens skin and rebuilds collagen. Post-treatment care includes using gentle skincare products like non-active cleansers, moisturizing SPF50+ sunscreen, and an ingestible marine collagen supplement such as Par Olive’s Marine Collagen to protect the skin barrier from sun damage. Dr Hkeik advises reintroducing active skincare products around the two-week mark after treatment.
