ZO Skin Health

Yes — when prescribed and introduced correctly. ZO products are potent, and one of the most common mistakes is using too many actives too quickly. Our prescription approach starts with barrier restoration and tolerance-building before introducing stronger actives, which makes ZO very effective even for sensitive or reactive skin.

Absolutely — in fact, this is how results are maximised. ZO home care extends and maintains the results of in-clinic treatments like microneedling, peels, and skin boosters. We design your home programme to complement your in-clinic schedule and ensure there is no conflict between products and treatments.

Initial skin softening and improvements in tone can appear within two to four weeks. Some patients experience a brief purging period as cell turnover accelerates — this is normal and typically settles within three weeks. Full results from a corrective ZO programme are usually visible at three to six months.

We recommend maintaining a medical-grade programme long-term, as menopausal skin changes continue to evolve. However, once your skin is in a healthy, balanced state, the programme can often be simplified to a smaller number of maintenance products. We reassess your programme at each follow-up appointment.

Please bring a list of all current skincare products to your consultation. ZO programmes are prescribed — we do not sell products without a consultation, as incorrect use can cause unnecessary irritation. When starting, always introduce products one at a time as directed. Expect an initial adaptation period, especially if your skin is not used to medical-grade actives.
