7 Products That Can Boost Your Tweakment Results

It isn’t just what happens inside your chosen aesthetics clinic that helps ensure you get the best tweakment results. It’s also about how good your at-home skincare routine is, too. Need some help finding the very best solutions? These are eight of our favourite skincare products that can actually boost your tweakment results… 

1. Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar, £158.40

Ask many practitioners what they recommend you use after a tweakment, and Alastin’s Regenerating Skin Nectar keeps cropping up. After all, it works great as part of your recovery toolkit, making light work of calming inflammation while supporting your skin’s natural healing processes, which is good news for reducing downtime. However, it isn’t just a skin soother. Far from it!

Powered by Alastin’s proprietary TriHex Technology, the formula also works to encourage the removal of old, damaged collagen and elastin within your skin, while encouraging the production of fresh, healthy fibres to take their place. This ‘clearing the way’ effect maximises your skin’s ability to respond to collagen-stimulating treatments, meaning you can squeeze every last benefit out of booking in for microneedling, radiofrequency and/or laser procedures.

2. Totally Derma Nutraceutical Drink Supplement, £105

A lot of the most popular tweakments right now work by stimulating collagen production, but your body still needs the raw materials to actually make that collagen if you want the best results. That’s where the right collagen supplement, aka Totally Derma, can get involved.

The slightly-vanilla-favoured powered supplement works from the inside out, delivering bovine-based collagen peptides and skin-supporting nutrients that can help optimise skin quality, hydration and elasticity both before and after your in-clinic tweakments. It’s supported by two convincing studies that show that the key ingredients are well absorbed (an important signal that’s not true of all supplements), and, perhaps most convincingly of all, it is one of Alice’s favourites, namely because she’s seen such good results herself. In fact, it’s been demonstrated to start working in as little as three weeks.

3. Heliocare 360 Fluid Cream SPF 50+, £23

If there is one product that can make or break your tweakment results, it’s sunscreen. And, it’s probably your cheapest option too, so there’s really no reason not to wear it. Even if you aren’t having tweakments, daily sunscreen protects your skin from signs of premature ageing like wrinkles, but it is even more important when you start investing in a tweakment plan. That’s because improvements achieved through laser treatments, peels and pigmentation procedures can be quickly undermined, especially if you are having them to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, uneven tone and hyperpigmentation.

This high-factor cream from Heliocare is the brand’s best seller for a reason, and we love it here at TTG. It provides comprehensive SPF protection with both physical and chemical filters, alongside a nicely hydrating feel, and an invisible finish.

4. Revision Skincare CMT Post-Procedure Cream, £68

No one wants to be in tons of discomfort after a tweakment, but did you know that inflammation (which is the origin of us feeling pain) is also a key contributor to decreased skin quality? Indeed, ‘inflammageing’ is the concept that inflammation is one of the leading causes of premature skin ageing, which means reducing sensations of pain on your tweakment journey – where possible – is potentially so important if you want the very best results.

Enter what has been dubbed the first ‘neurocosmetic’. This seriously clever product doesn’t just rely on nourishing your skin back to health (although it has plenty of ceramides and pre-and-post prebiotics to soothe your complexion). It also changes how your skin ‘thinks’ with every application. More specifically, it works by boosting beta-endorphin levels in your skin, which makes your skin ‘happier’ and therefore reduces your perception of discomfort. That’s great for supporting skin quality and keeping inflammation at bay.

5. Meder Beauty Arma-Lift Age Well Firming Concentrate, £137.50

The TTG team loves products that work with your skin, not against it, and Meder Beauty is a brand that perfectly embodies that concept. And, if it’s boosted tweakment results you are after, this lifting concentrate is our top pick, especially if overarching perimenopausal or menopausal skin changes are what have driven you to book into the clinic (aka dryness, fine lines and uneven texture).

Designed to improve skin firmness and elasticity, the formula works via an array of age-defying ingredients, including the powerful antioxidant resveratrol, skin-renewing EGF peptides, plant stem cells and skin microbiome-balancing prebiotics. This approach of both soothing and stimulating the skin is a great recipe for boosting overall skin quality, which in turn can help prolong and maintain the results you are trying to achieve via treatments themselves.

6. Medik8 Liquid Peptides Advanced MP Face Serum, £79

Want natural-looking tweakment results but don’t want to have to wait to see the results? Perhaps you are tempted to ‘go big or go home’ to get the most bang for your buck? Stop a moment. Turn to Medik8’s Liquid Peptides instead. Clinically proven to diminish the appearance of expression lines in just 10 minutes and deep-set wrinkles in eight weeks, it’s the perfect product to use alongside longer-term tweakment plans, so you never risk overdoing it with treatments such as filler or toxin.

This serum uses a potent blend of 13 different peptides, including the brand’s breakthrough Dual MiniProteins technology, which has a ‘filler-like’ effect on fine lines. There’s hyaluronic acid and probiotics in the packed formula too, meaning your skin looks instantly hydrated and refreshed – aka the perfect canvas on which to build your more invasive tweakment-based results.

7. Vital Assist Skincare Moisture Booster Vitamin Repair Serum, £79

This product boomed in popularity when experts realised it was exactly what the skin needed before starting to use potent actives such as retinoids, if you wanted to reduce side effects like dryness. That’s because it is designed to be used as the heart of a restorative nighttime routine, protecting and soothing your complexion.

The vitamin-packed serum (it contains vitamins A, B, C, D, E and K) is equally as effective when you are starting a new tweakment journey. By keeping the skin barrier strong and healthy, the formula helps create the optimal conditions for your tweakment results to develop and settle beautifully. And, best of all, it doesn’t leave your face and neck feeling sticky or heavy like some traditional night creams.
