Pregnancy Safe Skincare

November 19th, 2024 | By: Timeless Skin Solutions

Pregnancy is an extremely exciting time, but it also comes with a few sacrifices – like saying goodbye to soft cheeses, skipping that glass of wine, and avoiding certain skincare treatments and products. That said, with a few adjustments, you can continue to maintain your glow and keep your baby safe. 


When it comes to pregnancy-safe skincare, there are a few key no-nos: 


  • Retin-A: Avoid Retin-A, tretinoin, and other retinoic acids during pregnancy. These products have known effects on fetal development, so it’s best to steer clear of them, even when you’re trying to conceive.   



  • Hydroquinone: Hydroquinone is a powerful skin-whitening agent that goes a long way in addressing pigmentation and melasma, but it’s estimated that around 35% to 45% is systemically absorbed following topical use. While the medical community isn’t quite sure what might happen with its use during pregnancy, it's better to be safe than sorry.   


Luckily, there are still several things you can do to keep your glow during pregnancy, including two of our favorite treatments: Dermaplaning and DiamondGlow®.    


Dermaplaning gently exfoliates your skin while removing peach fuzz, leaving it incredibly soft and smooth. It tackles common concerns like dullness, uneven texture, and fine facial hair, and can improve mild acne scars, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation. Plus, it boosts skincare absorption for a glowing, refreshed look—no matter your skin's sensitivity.   


DiamondGlow, on the other hand, is a fantastic choice for anyone who wants to restore radiance and clarity to their skin. Often referred to as medical-grade microdermabrasion, this treatment addresses things like fine lines and wrinkles, crow's feet, enlarged pores, dry skin, and acne by combining exfoliation, extraction, and infusion of condition-specific serums to improve skin health, function, and appearance.     


While navigating skincare during pregnancy may require some changes, it doesn’t mean you have to press pause on your glow. By opting for safe ingredients and avoiding certain treatments, you can ensure that both you and your baby are well taken care of.    


At Timeless Skin Solutions, we understand the unique needs of pregnant women and are here to guide you in making informed choices about your skincare routine.
