Is there a difference between over the counter skin care products and physician-grade skin care products? Of course there is!
While over the counter skin care products aren’t necessarily harmful to the skin, they don’t treat it as well as physician-grade products do. Clinical products are safer, contain stronger ingredients and undergo more testing than over the counter products. AVIE! MedSpa and Laser Center can help choose which clinical products are best for your skin, giving you the optimal results and improvements. Physician grade products have clinical data and studies to support their claims. These studies are conducted over a period of time and use multiple samples of documentation or photos to support their claim.
Many people have little background knowledge on what types of skincare products to buy. This lack of knowledge can become harmful, leading to patients spending unnecessary money on a product that will not treat their conditions effectively. For that reason, it’s important to consult with a licensed skin care professional to determine your skin type and condition
Education about skincare products is key. Only qualified, certified, and educated skin care professionals can provide the best assistance for a variety of patient needs.
