Hi Alice, I was told today that I should not use vitamin C or retinol from spring to autumn as I have the risk of hyperpigmentation.
Who told you that??! A good quality vitamin C and retinol will both help reduce hyperpigmentation, so keep on with them. You can read more about pigmentation issues here. What you DO need to do from spring to autumn is to be extra diligent with your sunscreen, and protecting your face from UV light as that is what will really kick off pigmentation in your skin.
After trying the Secret RF radiofrequency needling procedure, how do you think it compares to Morpheus8?
I think they are much of a muchness. The results depend on whether you’re the right kind of patient for it, and to some extent on the skill of the practitioner. All these types of radiofrequency microneedling can give great results. I have yet to try Morpheus8 or Profound RF. Each practitioner I have spoken to about their choice of machine swears that theirs is the best, which leaves me none the wiser! Here’s the Secret RF video, if you want to see what treatment looks like.
