Nadine Dilong Whether we like it or not, we live in a society obsessed with celebrities and are much more likely to try or buy something if the product is endorsed by a star we look up to.
Even though the world’s fascination with reality TV star Kim Kardashian West is confusing (and highly questionable) at times, there’s no doubt her name sells. So when she recently revealed which skin treatments she gets on a regular basis, the cosmetic industry was all ears.
In a new interview with Popsugar, the social media queen explained her flawless skin isn’t all about a healthy diet and good genes, but achieved and maintained thanks to regular facials and laser treatments.
“I’m such a big believer in lasers and taking care of your skin. They really do help, tightening lasers. I’m all for it,” the 37 year-old said before naming her go-to specialists.
“I love Dr. Ourian. He just gets it done, and he’ll do amazing lasers all over your skin. Dr. Diamond I love going to as well. I think he does something called Fractora. Dr. Lancer is my dermatologist. I love facials with him. Any facials that have lasers — I went to Tracie Martyn in New York. They use electrodes all over your face.”
So let’s break down Kim K’s skincare maintenance routine:
Tightening lasers: While she doesn’t mention specifically which tightening lasers she has done, it’s likely she’s referring to Ultherapy as Kim had previously mentioned she’s a fan of the ultrasound treatment which tightens, smoothes fine lines, and rejuvenates the skin.
Dr Ourian: A favourite of the entire Kardashian-Jenner clan, Dr Ourian offers blue light therapy to absorb or evaporate discoloration on the skin.
Dr Diamond/Fractora lasers: A fractional radio-frequency treatment providing anti-aging improvements on skin tone and texture for a more radiant appearance through ablation and skin resurfacing.
Dr Lancer: This celebrity dermatologist has his own skincare line and believes in a three-step approach: polish, cleanse, nourish.
Tracie Martyn: The New York based celebrity facialist offers the Purple Ray treatment, which uses a unique light diode technique and mild currents to stimulate collagen.
Chances are, clients will ask you about these treatments in the future so be prepared to offer them similar alternatives if you don’t own the same machines – because Kim K sells.
