The Importance of At-Home Skincare: Protecting Your Results

At Rejhuvenate Aesthetics by Jeannie Jhu, PA-C in Walnut Creek, CA, we believe great skin starts with consistency—both in-office and at home. While professional aesthetic treatments can dramatically improve your skin, your daily skincare routine plays a critical role in protecting your investment and prolonging your results.

Think of professional treatments as the foundation and at-home skincare as the structure that keeps everything strong over time.

Protect Your Investment & Prolong Your Treatment Results

Whether you’re receiving injectables, microneedling, laser treatments, PDO threads, chemical peels, or other advanced aesthetic services, the longevity of your results depends on how well your skin is cared for outside the treatment room.

Proper skincare helps:

  • Maintain collagen and elastin production

  • Prevent premature aging and sun damage

  • Support healing and enhance treatment outcomes

  • Keep your skin healthy, balanced, and glowing

Simply put: professional treatments work best when paired with a consistent at-home routine.

Good Skincare Is the Cornerstone of Youthful Skin

Healthy, youthful skin isn’t achieved with trendy products or complicated routines—it’s built through simple, effective habits done consistently. The right skincare supports skin barrier health, improves texture and tone, and slows visible signs of aging.

If you’re new to skincare, don’t worry—you don’t need a 10-step routine to see real results.

New to Skincare? Start With These 4 Essentials

If you’re just getting started, focus on these foundational products:

Cleanser

A gentle cleanser removes dirt, oil, makeup, and environmental pollutants, keeping pores clear and reducing inflammation. Clean skin allows your active products to perform effectively.

Moisturizer

Hydration is key to healthy skin. A quality moisturizer strengthens the skin barrier, improves elasticity, and helps minimize irritation—especially following treatments like microneedling or chemical peels.

Retinoids

Retinoids are among the most extensively studied and clinically validated ingredients in dermatology. They work by binding to retinoic acid receptors in the skin, signaling cells to behave more like younger, healthier cells. As a result, skin texture becomes smoother, tone more even, and overall radiance improves.

SPF (The Most Important Step)

Daily sunscreen is the most effective anti-aging product available. Sun exposure is the leading cause of premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and skin cancer.

✔️ Professional recommendation:
Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every day.
For extended sun exposure or pigmentation concerns, SPF 50 is ideal.

Yes—this applies even on cloudy days and when you’re mostly indoors.
