Sensitive Skin

About this condition

Sensitive skin is defined as skin that may experience sensations like itching, stinging, tingling, redness, rashes, or burning when exposed to stimulants that wouldn’t ordinarily be an issue. These could range from anything like washing powder, clothes, or bath salts to lotions, creams, light, heat, and even simply sensitivity to touch. The weather is another environmental factor that can impact our skin, in particular extreme heat or cold temperatures and wind.

Approximately 50% of people report having reactive skin to some degree. Sensitive skin is not a medical condition in its own right but is believed to be a term describing sensations that develop when the skin is irritated often due to minor underlying skin concerns. When a flare-up of sensitive skin occurs following touching something, this is usually referred to as contact dermatitis.

This is very common, and in this instance, the skin is likely to react by becoming swollen or red accompanied by some itching or tingling. In more severe exposures to the irritant, the skin may respond by becoming dry and cracked or even with the formation of blisters.

If you experience any form of skin sensitivity, try to take note of anything recurring that causes the skin to react. At Paradise Aesthetic Clinic we take into consideration lifestyle factors as well as medical factors to determine the best treatment and products for you. Through a thorough skin consultation, we will analyse the deeper layers of the skin, along with the information provided on your consultation form to get the correct diagnosis and recommend the right treatment plan to help eradicate or mitigate future symptoms of skin sensitivity.

The service was immaculate! The staff were friendly and accommodating. The hygiene was strictly and safely kept. The treatment was offered on time. The doctor was professional and the procedure was explained thoroughly before the treatment. After the treatment, I was offered water and a safe space to write about my experience and left the clinic when ready to. I appreciated the glow that it left me with. The treatment is still working it’s magic. I will definitely go back for other treatments. It was such a treat in my busy and hectic life.

Laser Resurfacing for treating acne scar and uneven skin texture, already after one session my skin looks better. Dr Ellie Sattari she's lovely and she's explaining every step of the treatment. Looking forward for the second step!!!!

I was recommended the clinic by a close friend. I've never had any treatments before (not even a facial) so I didn't know what to expect. I wanted to know what anti-aging treatments are available for me before booking an appointment. I was told about all the superb options available and shown around the clinic which looks lovely and modern. Then I had a consultation with the warm and friendly Dr. Ellie. I've been booked in for a full face of Skin Tightening next week and have discussed having injectables in the crows feet to reduce signs of ageing. I can't wait to look 10 years younger haha. Excited for the results!

I am so impressed at the exceptional service at the Paradise Aesthetic Clinic. They have so many bespoke treatments in the clinic and Doctor Ellie was so attentive and created a treatment plan that perfected suited my needs. The laser hair removal was fast and importantly there's no down time! I was actually amazed that the entire treatment itself was entirely pain free! It was strangely satisfying and I'm so excited to be hair free a few months from now. I also had a freckle removal treatment called IPL which I was a bit nervous of admittedly. However, I felt completely at ease throughout the entire treatment and Dr Ellie was so knowledgable and reassuring. The before and after photos after the session shows how much they have lightened which is outstanding. I can’t wait to have more treatments and lighten the pigmentation completely. Thank you! Could not recommend more! 💞💞

Such a welcoming clinic, with an excellent treatment range. Dr Ellie & her team is very friendly and professional. Have had significant improvement in my acne scarring since doing Laser Resurfacing. Will continue to do more treatments at the clinic. Highly recommended!
