Since puberty, I have been educated on the
importance of daily skincare procedure. As we grow older, it is inevitable that
our skin ages in an accelerated pace hence requires more effort to maintain its
condition. One of my major concern is the lack of moisture on my skin
considering that I spend most of the time in an air-con room. I was told that
once your skin lacks moistures, it dries up and ages faster! Thanks to KO Skin
Specialist, I was offered a valuable one-hour consultation session with their
skin doctor at Klinik Dr. Ko Damansara, 10 Boulevard (during which I had zero
make up on just so the doctor could observe and comment on my bare face
condition:/)
The founder of KO Skin Specialist – Dr Ko
Chung Beng, spent 17 years in UK and obtained his specialist qualifications
prior to his return to Malaysia in 1994. He headed the Dermatology Department
of Seremban Hospital until 1997, then founded the KO Skin Specialist which has
since been providing a comprehensive range of in-depth services from dermatology
to cosmetic surgery.
When he first started out on his own in
1997, KO Skin Specialist was just a little clinic in Klang, located on the
first floor of a shop lot. However the effectiveness of his prescriptions soon
spread and today, that little clinic is now the headquarters for the 26 clinics
of KO Skin Specialist centres across Malaysia. KO Skin Specialist now has their
very own formulation of skincare products which are formulated by their team of
professionals to combat signs of aging, acne and other skin problems. The
centres also offer the most complete range of laser therapy equipment in Asia.
No longer just a Malaysian brand, KO Skin Specialist has a branch in Xiamen,
China, and will be opening more branches in the future! How’s that for a Malaysian
success story?
KO Skin Specialist has four (4) skincare
ranges namely – Dermax Clinicare, KO Dermaceutical, KO Series, and eKo.
Dermax
Clinicare
The Dermax Clinicare series is known for
its effectiveness in preventing new acne formation. Products in this series are
meticulously blended with a natural botanical extracts under strict quality
control. It removes impurities; refines open pores; soothes and heals the skin
for an acne-free face.
This series comprises a broad range of
products, even for dry and sensitive skin. Products from the Dermax Clinicare
series may be used together with products from other KO Skincare series
depending on your needs.
KO
Dermaceutical
The KO Dermaceutical series speeds up
recovery; protects the skin from sun exposures; combats dullness, pigmentation,
dehydration whilst reversing the signs of aging. The serums, cleansers, toners,
moisturizers and sunscreens complement the needs of most skin types, and is
also ideal for post-treatment care. Like Dermax and the KO series, products
from the KO Dermaceutical range can be used together with products from other
series, depending on your skin condition.
KO
Series
The KO series offers a gentle solution to
reduce blemishes, which is great news for those who have sensitive or acne-prone
skin as most blemish fighting products can irritate sensitive skin.
eKo
The eKo series is infused with amaranthus
caudatus — one of the best sources of vegetable protein known for its
antioxidant and skin revitalization properties.
The range of products that were prescribed
to me: ( a wide range from a few series which are enough to last for months *happy*)
KO Dermacare Purifying Cleansing Gel 220ml
RM198
Before this, I remove my cosmetic with make
up remover and rinse off with a cleasing foam. However, double cleansing method
is not advisable for my skin. I was prescribed this cleansing gel which could
effectively breaks down grease stain from make up (including the eye area) without destroying the natural protective
lipids layer of the skin. Just gotta squeeze an adequate amount and massage
your face on a circular motion to make sure you remove the make up thoroughly.
Saves me plenty of time too since everything could be removed at one go.
KO Dermaceutical Perfect Radiance Toner 21
120ml RM198
An essential step of our daily skincare
routine. Apply day and night after cleasing. I was prescribed the toner from
this series as it could transform dull and tired skin into a brighter and
luminous complexion (according to the doctor I’ve got an uneven skin tone). So
far I have seen improvement on my skin tone and pigmentation effect after using
for a month. The toner is alcohol free so don’t worry about it causing dry
skin.
KO Dermacare Aqua Hydrating Moisturizer I
60g RM280
This was prescribed as my day-use
moisturizer. Water based moisturizer which is also suitable for acne-prone and
oily skin. Quite happy with this product as it makes my face and neck
sufficiently moisturized throughout the day. Don’t have to apply too much, just
a pea-sized drop since it is quite concentrated. 60g can easily last for more
than 3 months.
KO Series Acne Therapy Solutions Clarifying
Treatment Moisturizer 50gm RM160
The doctor recommended this for my night
use. This KO Series moisturizer is non greasy and could easily absorbed into my
skin. In the past I used to wake up with really oily face because the
moisturizer is too greasy which could cause pimples and acne. No such problem
after I started using this before sleep.
Well moisturized and radiant skin thanks to
the wide range of KO skincare products ^^
Will share more details on the remaining KO
products prescribed to me on my next blog post!
