DAY 7 My Skin Rejuvenation Journey

One week since my fractional CO₂ laser treatment at The Dermal Clinic and we’re definitely getting somewhere!

Most of the rough, dry texture has settled and my skin is feeling much smoother. I’ve still got a little bit of that “grid” pattern visible in areas, particularly around the edges, but that’s all part of the healing process.

And while the surface is looking more normal, the interesting stuff is still happening underneath.

Fractional CO₂ creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering a wound-healing response and stimulating new collagen production and remodelling. That process doesn’t finish when the peeling stops ,it continues over the coming weeks and months.

So Day 7 isn’t the result it’s really just the beginning.

Next step in my skin journey will be bringing in my RF Collagen Renewal treatments to support skin tightening and collagen stimulation.

One week down now I’m excited to see what happens next!

DAY 6 -CO₂ LASER HEALING JOURNEY ✨

And the shedding has well and truly begun!

You can see in the video that a lot of that dry, rough outer layer is starting to come away now, revealing the fresher skin underneath.

But the really exciting part is what we can’t see.

The fractional CO₂ laser created controlled micro-injuries in my skin, triggering its natural repair response. While the surface is healing and shedding, deeper down the process of collagen remodelling and new collagen production is underway and that will continue for weeks and even months.

My skin still has a way to go, but Day 6 is definitely starting to feel like we’re coming out the other side.

And yes resisting the urge to help the flaky bits along deserves some sort of medal.

Day 6 done. Let’s see what tomorrow brings!

DAY 5 CO₂ LASER HEALING ✨

And now the shedding begins!

Those little dark dots you can see are the microscopic treatment zones created by the fractional CO₂ laser, and by Day 5 they’re starting to dry, break up and naturally shed as fresh skin develops underneath.

While the surface might look a little rough right now, underneath my skin is busy with the longer-term work ,repairing tissue and beginning the collagen-remodelling process that will continue over the coming weeks and months.

The biggest rule right now? Don’t pick, scrub or rush it. Let the skin do its thing.

So far, my healing has been pretty cruisy and I’m fascinated watching the process day by day.

Day 5: not quite the glow-up yet more like the renovation phase.

Day 4 of my CO₂ fractional laser healing journey

Today the dryness and that sandpapery texture have definitely arrived but overall, I’m feeling really good.

Underneath all of this, my skin is busy repairing itself and beginning the process of renewal and collagen remodelling ,which is exactly what we want.

Not exactly glamorous right now but we’re trusting the process!

Day 4 -healing and patiently waiting for the glow.

DAY 3 — CO₂ SKIN JOURNEY

We’re definitely in the trust the process stage 😂

My skin is feeling dry and rough and starting to get that bronzed look as the treated skin begins to shed.

But underneath, the real work has started.
The CO₂ laser has triggered my skin’s natural repair response,new skin cells are forming and the process of producing new collagen and elastin has begun.

So while I’m looking a little crispy on the outside,there’s plenty happening underneath.

Day 3… bring on the collagen!

CO₂ Skin Journey — Day 2

Honestly, my skin is feeling pretty good! There’s no pain and very little redness — it just feels a bit dry today.

Underneath, though, the healing process has begun. The tiny controlled injuries created by the fractional CO₂ are triggering my skin’s natural repair response, which will stimulate new collagen and gradually improve texture and pigmentation.

So far, so good,now we let my skin do its thing.

Day 2

Well nobody said skin rejuvenation was going to be pretty. 😂

This is Day 2 after my CO₂ fractional laser treatment and I wanted to show you the REAL recovery ,redness, swelling, texture and all.

I’m doing this as part of my own skin rejuvenation journey, focusing on improving pigmentation, skin texture, firmness and stimulating new collagen.

Menopause has definitely changed my skin. As oestrogen declines, we lose collagen and our skin can become thinner, drier and less firm ,so I’ve decided it’s time to give mine a little encouragement.

I’ll keep documenting the healing process and the changes over the coming weeks, because the interesting part isn’t what it looks like today,it’s what happens as that new collagen starts doing its thing.

Day 2: definitely not the glamour stage.

Day 1 of my skin rejuvenation journey.

Menopause doesn’t just change our metabolism, sleep and body composition — our skin gets dragged into the party too. 😏

As oestrogen declines through menopause, so does its protective effect on our skin. We begin to lose collagen, elastin, hydration and skin thickness, which can mean:

• More fine lines and wrinkles
• Crepey or thinner-looking skin
• Less firmness and elasticity
• Changes in skin tone and texture
• That general feeling that everything isn’t quite sitting where it used to!

And collagen loss can be particularly rapid around the menopausal transition.

So I’ve decided to start my own skin rejuvenation journey ,not because I’m trying to look 25 again (good grief, I don’t have the energy 😂), but because I want my skin to look fresher with a more even skin tone.

I’m starting with CO₂ fractional laser treatment at The Dermal Clinic, which works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate the natural healing response, collagen remodelling and new collagen production.

Then, once my skin has completely healed,I’ll be incorporating RF skin-tightening treatments that I can perform myself.

Radiofrequency uses controlled heat within the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production and support gradual tightening and improved skin firmness.

My goal?

Better texture.
Better tone.
More firmness.
Healthier-looking skin.

Not changing my face. Not trying to turn back the clock.

Just working with my menopausal skin and giving it a little encouragement to do what it doesn’t do quite as enthusiastically anymore.

Menopause may change the rules but that doesn’t mean we stop looking after the skin we’re in.

Most weight loss plans fail for one simple reason.

They are miserable to stick to.

If your plan leaves you hungry, exhausted, constantly thinking about food, avoiding social occasions and counting down the days until you can “eat normally again" how sustainable is it really?

Because the goal shouldn’t be to become really good at dieting.

It should be to create a way of eating and living that supports your health without making you miserable in the process.

You should be able to enjoy satisfying food.
Go out for dinner.
Celebrate birthdays.
Take a holiday.
Enjoy the occasional treat.

And still move towards your goals.

And this becomes even more important during perimenopause and menopause, when the old “eat less and exercise more” approach often doesn’t give us the results it once did.

Our bodies are changing.
Muscle mass, insulin sensitivity, sleep, stress, hormones and where we store body fat can all shift during this stage of life.

That doesn’t mean we need a stricter diet.

It means we need a smarter, more sustainable approach.

That’s why I tell my clients all the time:

It’s a lifestyle, not a diet.

A diet has a start date, an end date and usually a list of things you’re not allowed to do.

A lifestyle is learning how to make choices that support your body most of the time while still having a life.

Because if you’re only making changes until the weight comes off, what happens when you reach your goal?

We’re not trying to create something you can tolerate for 12 weeks.

We’re creating habits you can live with for years.

No perfection. No punishment. No waiting until Monday to “start again”.

Just a healthier way of eating and living that eventually becomes your normal.

For more information on HOW you can create a lifestyle that works book a FREE consultation today-it's a quick phone chat to see if it's what you are looking for.
