No one wants to spend their hard-earned money on skincare products and advanced technology and then not see results. Right!
Here's the thing... you likely won't notice the results if you don't track them. In this article we'll discuss an easy way to track your results - and - look at the truth about when we could start seeing results.
The first thing to know is skin (even when using the best products & technology) doesn't transform overnight and this must be kept in mind in order to set reasonable expectations.
As we age, skin regeneration slows drastically. What once was a 6-week cycle of skin cell regeneration can easily turn into 12 weeks and longer - if - we don't know how to use products and advanced technology to support and expedite this process. Doing nothing ensures this process gets slower and slower as the years go by.
Did you notice I said there is a 6-week cycle for skin cell regeneration? That is for normal, healthy skin. The process works like this. Skin cells rise to the surface of our skin as a natural process. Then skin cells die off when they reach the surface. At the same time this is happening, new skin cells form. The work we are doing (or not doing) on our skincare journey either supports this process or prohibits it.
Of course, we want to be able to see results using the products and advanced technology we've invested in, right! The next question is, how can we do this and how long should it take?
Most of the changes that take place in the skin when we are using skincare products and advanced technology are very subtle. That is why I cannot stress strongly enough, track your progress with pictures. The subtle changes will be missed if left to visual recall or just looking in the mirror. It's impossible to recall what the skin looked like in the morning, let alone from week to week.
Capturing your progress in pictures ensures your ability to see these subtle changes. However, taking these pictures properly is vital to getting an accurate record of your success.
The Best Way to Track Your Results
It's exciting to see these changes happening. It motivates us to keep doing the work. Without these pictures, we will miss them and we might give up and lose out on what we could have accomplished for ourselves.
Potential Changes Week to Week
Each week these areas can continue to improve so long as you stay consistent with your skincare routine.
Please don't give up if you don't see changes right away.
If your skin is already in pretty good shape, changes won't be as noticeable because your skin is already in good shape. You're doing the work you do to maintain it.
On the other hand, if you've neglected your skin for a long time, it will need time to respond. Set reasonable expectations and focus on consistency.
Anytime you start using a new product or device, commit to at least 6 weeks before you decide it doesn't work for you. Remember, there is no such thing as a one size fits all skincare product. Each person's skin will respond differently to different ingredients. Finding the product (or products) with the ingredients your skin loves and the technology your skin responds to is always the goal.
Track your results so you will be able to see first hand the progress you're making.

When it comes to skincare, sometimes less is more. With so many products on the market promising to combat all kinds of skin concerns, it can be overwhelming to know what you actually need. If your bathroom is overflowing with dozens of serums, lotions, and potions you've only used a handful of times, it might be time to take a minimalist approach to your skincare routine... a practice with a trending new name, "skinimalism"!
