Dr Mercedes Quintillà, from the L’Atelier d’Estètica clinic, explains which protocols to follow to prevent the appearance of blemishes and achieve a radiant, glowing complexion, thanks to INSTITUTE BCN’s medical-aesthetic products.
1- Cleansing + exfoliation
It is essential to remove impurities, pollution, sunscreen residue and make-up every day, morning and night. In addition, to improve skin tone uniformity, promote cell renewal and reduce blemishes, it is necessary to exfoliate at least once a week to remove excess dead cells. In this regard, BCN Prebiotic Scrub can be used all year round and is particularly suitable for the summer months as it is not photosensitising. This facial and body exfoliant promotes the removal of dead cells through a natural process and stimulates the skin’s defences thanks to its prebiotic-rich formula.
2- Daily hydration, in the salon and at home
MesoBlanche® combines different active agents that act on the skin’s natural pigmentation cycle, providing an even, luminous complexion.
3- Treatments rich in antioxidants
Antioxidants are ideal for counteracting blemishes. Among them, Vitamin C and Glutathione stand out, as they brighten the skin, reduce sun damage, promote collagen and hyaluronic acid, and enhance cell regeneration. Vitamin B3, an active ingredient included in BCN Polyvitamins, reduces water loss, minimises oxidative damage, repairs DNA and reduces cell apoptosis. Products rich in amino acids are also recommended for their nutritional, antioxidant and moisturising properties and their ability to restore skin structure. As for polynucleotides, which are included in DNA Liquid, X-DNA Gel and BCN Base, they promote cell renewal and increase collagen and elastin production. Polynucleotides also block free radicals and neutralise OH hydroxyl radicals accumulated through stress or UV rays.

4- Sun protection, always
If your skin is prone to pigmentation, you should use a sunscreen that suits your skin’s needs. Sunscreens allow some solar radiation to pass through, enough to cause dark spots to appear when the skin is exposed to the sun during peak hours. Filters degrade and are lost through sweat, rubbing against clothing, hands, etc., so it is essential to reapply them at least every two hours, or after each swim if you are at the beach or pool.
