The expression “feeling good in one’s skin” is from the wisdom that you feel the most beautiful and confident when you are happy with your skin! Well chosen skin care products go a long way towards this goal! Select from the most current Medical Grade Skin Care Products in Havertown and South Philadelphia for skin care maintenance and enhancement. Who better to advise you on your skin’s needs than skin care experts?
COMING SOON: New! INVO exosome based skincare, for hair restoration, skin-rejuvenation including unwanted hyperpigmentation.
At Mind Your Skin, we handpick the highest-grade skin care product lines and home run products for you, so you don’t have to. Medical grade means more and better active ingredients, and fewer inactive ones, including ‘filling’ agents and preservatives. The dispensing system is key for certain items such as vitamin C which is unstable and degrades when exposed to air. Furthermore, the delivery system (‘vehicle’) is the secret sauce in the world of cosmeceuticals. Often the active ingredient has to be cloaked, folded or otherwise altered and/or disguised or aided in order to get it past our skin barrier before successful deployment. This is where science really takes over and where “Medical Grade” sets itself apart from many over-the counter treatments.
To begin with you should treat your skin to ongoing exfoliation and sun protection. Moisturize as needed. Additionally, none of these need be expensive! Stepping it up a notch: We have available antioxidants and various treatments directed at specific concerns. Our estheticians get you started and move you along a personalized skin-care regimen. Think of us for example as your personal skin care trainers! Below are our “go-to”, top performing skincare products. These are available for on-line purchase as well via our web store.
Please be aware of and don’t fall for scammers that operate via phone, e-mail, social media such as FaceBook and Instagram, as well as on the web!
So let us review our favorite ‘lines’ and why we incorporate them into our practice.
INVO is a company that is taking a new and innovative approach to stem cell regenerative aesthetics
We selected INVO Aesthetics as the company to partner with, for exosome-based treatment for hair ànd for skin rejuvenation. Exosomes are tiny extracellular vesicles (EVs) that can slip by our skin barrier and deliver their designer precision payload. INVO provides exosome-based rejuvenation for hair-regrowth, skin-brightening and rejuvenation overall with products for both in-house treatments using micro-needling to drive it to the target, as well as for at-home use.
The time is here that thinning hair/hair loss can be helped by non-invasive solutions. By this we mean that literally hair regrowth is made possible by the scalp application of a a serum. This liquid preparation preserves, and regenerates existing follicles!
Just to be clear: Growing brand new follicles where there aren’t any is still experimental. So is cloning in the lab. So is the banking and cryopreservation of one’s young, healthy hair follicles for future regenerative applications.
Back to our reality. How does this sound: Nothing by mouth, and no surgery involved! Address the root cause (pun intended!). It comes to you via innovations in biotechnology. This is going a step beyond Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy as a hair loss treatment. Our approach involves three visits for treatment, scheduled ~four weeks apart, to drive to exosomes into the scalp. This is done by way of micro-needling, bathing the follicles in this ‘soup’. Following this, you are using a topical serum at home.
INVO is bringing groundbreaking science, over 1,200 growth factors, proteins, and peptides, and over 1.2 trillion (!) exosomes to market. This is not just for hair! BioBlend Technology™ is a sophisticated mix of high-powered growth factors and exosomes, sourced from a proprietary blend of multiple cell sources known to play a vital role in facial rejuvenation (as well as hair restoration).
EXO|E Skin Revitalizing Complex is based on a patent-protected biofriendly formula that helps ensure perfect compatibility with the skin. Chemical-free and water-based. The treatment protocol includes D|TOX, EXO|E, and RE|PAIR, which are applied over 29-applications for in-office and at-home use. This technology enhances results and speeds up desired outcomes for an elevated patient experience.
Our DE|RIVE™ Hair Wellness System is carefully curated from well-studied, plant-based factors that support hair and scalp health. It features both in-office and take-home products that practitioners and patients love. The DE|RIVE™ Hair Wellness System is comprised of DE|RIVE™ In-Office Serum, DE|RIVE™ Take-Home Daily Support Serum, NEW DE|RIVE™ Daily Support Shampoo, and NEW DE|RIVE™ Leave-in Conditioner all powered by EXO|E™ Technology.
As the demand for hair and scalp health products continues to grow, our DE|RIVE™ Hair Wellness System stands at the forefront. Not just a trend but a long-term solution for hair and scalp health.
Keen scientists observe that certain snails have an astounding capability to heal their integument (‘skin’). In addition we know that with age our skin loses the benefit from the repair properties of our natural growth factors. As is the case for many other important components, our skin is just not keeping up. Biopelle Tensage Advanced Cream helps supplement this decreased level as growth factors are applied to the skin. European scientists discovered and patented SCA Bio-repair Technology. Tensage® Growth Factor features SCA-6 Bio-repair Technology, a special secretion concentrated from the Cryptomphalus aspersa snail. Besides growth factors glyco-proteins and antioxidants help repair, maintain and protect skin from the visible signs of photo-damage. These snail secretions improve fine lines and hydrate, producing softer skin.
(The snails at the farm in Spain escape any harm in this process)

We are always moving in order to keep up with the crowded field of products to find the ones that stand above the fray.

ISDIN (based in Spain) has some very exciting solutions for fighting off unwanted pigmentation and repair of sun-damage. These are available in our webstore.
In addition to sun-protection, ISDIN has been innovating in skin-rejuvenation and renewal, eye-care, hair-care. As is popular in Europe, they present several of their products in handy glass ampoules. This ensures a fresh product is applied each time!

Alastin Skin Nectar features Skincare TriHex. This technology’s approach entails treating aging skin with selected peptides and botanicals that target the extracellular matrix. The Skin Nectar helps to enzymatically clear damaged proteins stuck in the extracellular matrix (between the cells). The product also stimulates and supports the skin’s natural ability to produce elastin and collagen. In addition, antioxidants and Arnica Montana help to calm and reduce redness. In summary, we love the Skin Nectar pre- and post our deeper laser treatments because it boosts results while reducing downtime.
