Quick answer · What is Dull Skin?
Dull skin looks tired and flat because dead cells build up, the skin is dehydrated or scattered pigment reflects light unevenly. At RE:BERRY Clinic it is treated with deep-cleansing hydrating facials, low-energy laser toning and, for longer-lasting skin quality, skin boosters such as hyaluronic acid or polynucleotides. Facials and toning take 20–40 minutes with no downtime; boosters may cause small bumps for 1–3 days. Many patients notice a fresher glow after the first visit.

How it works
Restoring the surface, hydration and tone
Healthy skin reflects light evenly. Exfoliating, hydrating facials remove surface build-up, low-energy toning reduces diffuse pigment, and boosters improve hydration and skin quality from within. Combining them addresses the surface and the deeper causes of a tired complexion.
