Should You Identify Your Skin Type Before a Skin Treatment?

At PIND Dermatology Clinic, skin treatments begin by distinguishing dry, oily, combination, sensitive, acne-prone, and pigmented skin, because each type needs a different approach. The same serum used on different people tends to work for only one of them.

At PIND Dermatology Clinic, the first step in a skin treatment is to determine which type the visitor has: dry, oily, combination, sensitive, acne-prone, or pigmented. This step is not a love of classification; it is because the treatment direction differs fundamentally by type.

Why can't everyone use the same protocol?

Because the treatment direction differs by skin type, when the same serum is used on five people, only one of them notices a difference.

  • Dry
  • Oily
  • Combination
  • Sensitive
  • Acne-prone
  • Pigmented

We first confirm which type you are, then decide the treatment direction, rather than applying the same thing to everyone.
