01
“My skin becomes irritated easily.”
A recurring low-grade reaction to products, weather or friction that healthy skin tolerates.
Concern · Face & Skin · 02
Sensitive skin restored.
A skin that reacts to almost anything - stinging with new products, flushing in the wind, tightening after a shower. Under it, a weakened barrier. The pathway is calm: rebuild, protect, minimise.

What it is
A skin that over-reacts.
Sensitive skin is a condition in which the skin reacts excessively to external or internal factors. It may present with irritation, redness or discomfort even after mild exposure.
It is often associated with a weakened skin barrier - the outermost defensive layer that keeps water in and irritants out. The pathway is a rebuild, not a suppression.
“Sensitive skin isn't fragile - it's inflamed. The barrier is the first thing we protect and the last thing we test.”
What patients notice.
Symptoms named in the patient's own words alongside the clinical read.
02
Burning, stinging or itching
Sensory symptoms without visible cause - often the first sign of an impaired barrier.
03
Redness after new products
Delayed erythema hours after introducing a serum, sunscreen or cleanser.
04
“No cream seems to suit my skin.”
Cycle of trial and reaction - usually driven by aggressive ingredients or too many actives.
05
Dryness and a feeling of tightness
Transepidermal water loss above baseline - the barrier isn't holding water.
06
Reactions to cold, wind or heat
Climate-triggered flushing suggests vascular reactivity underlying the sensitivity.
Why the skin reacts.
Sensitive skin has multiple drivers - we identify which one before deciding the pathway.
#TypeWhat's happeningPathway
01Barrier impairment.Damaged lipid layer allows irritants in and water out - usually product-driven.Ceramide repair
02Vascular reactivity.Superficial vessels dilate easily in response to temperature or stress.Trigger control
03Contact reaction.Allergic or irritant response to a specific ingredient in skincare or environment.Patch test
04Underlying condition.Rosacea, atopic dermatitis or eczema masquerading as generic sensitivity.Dermatology referral
05Over- treated.Skin damaged by excessive actives, exfoliation or aggressive routines.Routine reset
Diagnostics-first
We read the barrier before we touch it.
Sensitive skin is diagnosed by history and clinical evaluation - VISIA imaging shows the underlying damage patterns.

Treatment pathways
How we treat it.
Rebuild the barrier, remove the irritants, keep the routine minimal until the skin can tolerate more.
Lead pathway · Barrier repair
Ceramide, panthenol, and a shorter routine.
Barrier-repair formulations rebuild the lipid layer - paired with a stripped-back routine that removes the ingredients driving the reaction.
Duration4–8 weeks
ActivesSuspended
ReviewFortnightly
Viora Infusion.
Deep hydration when the barrier is stable enough to tolerate it.
Supportive · HA hydrationBiorevitalization
Hyaluronic acid to support skin hydration once the barrier is rebuilt.
Supportive · NourishmentMesotherapy
Vitamin infusion to support skin quality - introduced late in the course.
Supportive · Trigger managementEnvironmental adjustments.
SPF, avoidance of alcohol/fragrance/strong acids, minimal cleansing.

Begin with a diagnosis.
A specialist assesses barrier function, reviews your skincare history, and lays out a routine simple enough to stop the cycle of reactions.
