Life has been very stressful for many this past year and not only does this affect our mind, but it affects our bodies and skin too. So, a trip to a local Dermalogica salon may just be what is needed to breathe life back into your skin, putting yourself back in the hands of pros.
Find your nearest Dermalogica salon below and book in with one of the expert skin therapists where they provide tailored consultations to ensure the correct products are prescribed based on your own specific skin care needs, as well as facials and treatments and skin health advice. Having regular sessions with a Dermalogica certified therapist is hugely important when trying to maintain healthy skin, just as it is important to take regular trips to the dentist!
All certified Dermalogica therapists have carried out extensive training in preparation for reopening to ensure a safe environment for those that visit salons for treatments. Dermalogica led the way by launching Clean Touch certification and protocols, enhancing service safety guidelines. This online training is available for all skin care professionals, industry wide at no charge, specifically to address the risks of Covid-19. Developed in collaboration with an epidemiologist, and available in 18 languages.
To date Dermalogica has over 38,000 completions of Clean Touch Certification globally with over 7,000 therapists in the UK & Ireland. A safe environment for clients and therapists is of the utmost importance.
These new measures include:
- Dermalogica Principles for Enhanced Service Safety, a set of directives such as maintaining physical distancing by staggering appointments and limiting entrance; wearing masks in common areas and masks and face shields during treatments; hand sanitisation, handwashing, and sterilisation; as well as requirements for laundering and retail testers.
- Detailed safety protocols that address specific touchpoints such as pre-appointment screening; client arrival and departure; retail and common-area floor services; treatment room sanitation; protective wear, and more.
- Clean Touch Certification, awarded to skin therapists who complete free online training on the key principles and enhanced protocols. Upon completion, skin therapists will earn a certificate recognising them as Clean Touch Certified, which they can display in their salon, treatment room, or website.
Dermalogica’s principles go beyond what is legally mandated but should not replace state board or local authority regulations.
“As science progresses, we will surely need to loosen or tighten the safety precautions,” states Dermalogica Global CEO Aurelian Lis. “What counts is that we have defined the most appropriate steps now so that the industry can embark on the changes necessary to make facial skincare services a reality. With big business focused on digital or sitting it out, skin therapists are not willing to give up on the important industry of human touch and connection.”
