Treatments for dull and dehydrated skin
Dull skin is usually a build-up of dead cells plus a lack of water in the skin. It can feel tight and look tired even if it's oily.

How we treat it
Exfoliate, then rehydrate. Microdermabrasion, enzyme peels and carbon peels lift dull surface cells; Dr. Spiller facials and masks put moisture back and support the skin barrier.
