Enzyme Therapy: The Paris Fashion Week Skin Protocol
While Paris Fashion Week sets the trends, the true foundation of the runway look is a professional Enzyme Therapy protocol. This season, the heavy mattes and over-processed finishes were gone. In their place? Skin that looked calm, sculpted, and intensely hydrated.
As an advanced medical esthetician, I’ve spent my career preparing skin for high-stakes moments. The "Fashion Week Glow" isn't a result of last-minute makeup tricks; it’s a result of the Bio-Restorative Runway Protocol a method rooted in biochemistry, barrier repair, and cellular stimulation.
1. Enzyme Therapy: The Internal Reset
While many reach for aggressive peels before an event, the "backstage secret" is actually Enzyme Therapy.
What is Enzyme Therapy?
Unlike surface-level exfoliation, Enzyme Therapy is a para-medical treatment that stimulates the skin’s internal functions to flush toxins and initiate fresh blood flow.
- The "Plasmatic Effect": This visible mapping of capillaries proves that the therapy is flooding the dermis with fresh oxygen and nutrients.
- Lymphatic Drainage: It acts as a manual "detox," moving stagnant fluid to reveal a more contoured, de-puffed facial structure.
- Melanated Skin Safety: This is the gold standard for treating hyperpigmentation in darker skin tones because it creates clarity without the inflammation that causes PIH.
2. Professional Light Therapy: The Cellular Healer
If Enzyme Therapy is the engine, LED Light Therapy is the fuel. Used strategically, our professional LED protocols stabilize the skin during the chaos of travel.
We use specific wavelengths to achieve distinct biological outcomes:
- Red Light (633nm): Reduces inflammation and accelerates barrier repair.
- Blue Light (415nm): kills acne bacteria without drying the skin.
- Near-Infrared (830nm): Penetrates deep to support cellular energy (ATP) for a "rested" look.
3. The At-Home Bridge: Strategic Maintenance
A professional facial is a catalyst, but the glow is sustained at home. During Fashion Week, I recommend "intelligent" products that encourage turnover without causing irritation.
The MVP: iS Clinical Active Serum
This botanical powerhouse is a staple for a reason. It provides controlled exfoliation—refining texture and pores—while keeping the skin resilient.
Pro Tip: When using potent actives like the Active Serum during travel, reduce frequency to 3x a week to prevent barrier sensitization.
The "Bio-Restorative" Approach
The "effortless" skin seen in Paris is the result of estheticians choosing restraint over aggression. This season’s beauty direction was a victory for our industry, leaning into:
- Natural, breathable texture.
- Plump, "bouncy" hydration.
- Skin that looks respected, not forced.
