Pregnancy skin problems and solutions
Dry, Dull Skin; The most common sign of pregnancy is dry skin, which can be caused by a lack in hormones to fight off rust and oiliness. Your body's natural oils go towards nurturing the baby so you'll end up with more mature looking locks after giving birth!
The best way around this issue? Keep your skin nourished and well moisturised at home with an oil based cleanser and treat yourself to a hydrating facial such as our PuraPeel hydra-dermabrasion,
Pigmentation and Melasma; When you are pregnant, your body releases Environmental Hormones that can stimulate pigment-stimulating hormones. These in turn cause melasma - large patches of discoloration appearing on the face due to hyperpigmentation or skin irritation from increased photosensitivity . The postpartum period often brings about an improvement but taking care for yourself during pregnancy will help alleviate any long term problems
