Medical skin care products, or cosmeceuticals, are functional cosmetic products that go beyond external beautification and skin enhancement by offering additional therapeutic and anti-aging benefits. At Funt Aesthetics, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. David K. Funt brings extensive experience in facial anatomy, cosmetic rejuvenation, injectables, and skin care to the selection of products designed to support healthier-looking skin.
Cosmeceuticals are formulated to improve skin health and appearance while providing targeted benefits for concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, texture changes, dryness, and visible sun damage. When incorporated into a personalized skin care regimen, these products can complement professional aesthetic treatments and support ongoing skin maintenance at home.
What Are Cosmeceuticals?
Cosmeceuticals occupy a space between traditional cosmetics and more advanced skin care products. They contain active ingredients selected to improve the appearance and condition of the skin rather than simply provide temporary surface-level effects.
Depending on the formulation, cosmeceutical products may be used to:
-
Improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
-
Support smoother skin texture
-
Address uneven skin tone and discoloration
-
Improve hydration and reduce moisture loss
-
Support healthier-looking skin after environmental exposure
-
Complement professional skin rejuvenation treatments
Choosing products according to the patient’s skin type and concerns can help create a routine that is both manageable and targeted.
SkinMedica® Product Options
SkinMedica offers several products designed to address visible signs of aging and support overall skin quality. These products may be incorporated into a broader regimen based on individual needs.
TNS Essential Serum®
Appropriate for all skin types, this all-in-one skin-rejuvenating treatment improves the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, skin tone, and texture.
TNS Essential Serum should be applied to the face and to the neck and chest if desired, after cleansing and toning the skin and before applying other products, including sunscreen.
TNS Recovery Complex®
TNS Recovery Complex is clinically shown to reduce the appearance of skin discoloration and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Appropriate for all skin types, TNS Recovery Complex should be the first product applied after cleansing and toning in the morning and evening.
Dermal Repair Cream
This ultra-rich moisturizer helps prevent moisture loss and improves skin smoothness, restoring the skin’s natural beauty.
Dermal Repair Cream should be applied twice daily after cleansing, toning, and applying treatment products. It may be particularly useful for patients whose routines include corrective products that can leave the skin feeling dry or in need of additional moisture support.
Neova® Products
Neova products are formulated to support skin affected by environmental exposure and visible signs of aging. They may be used as part of a customized home skin care routine when appropriate for the patient’s concerns.
DNA Repair
Neova’s DNA Repair cream is formulated to support the skin’s natural repair processes. Its advanced formula is designed to address visible signs of environmental damage and collagen degradation.
The product may be incorporated into a skin care regimen focused on maintaining healthier-looking skin and addressing signs of aging or photodamage.
How Cosmeceuticals Fit Into a Skin Care Routine
An effective skin care routine should be based on the patient’s individual needs rather than the number of products used. Cosmeceuticals can be selected to address specific concerns and layered in an appropriate order so that each product can perform its intended role.
A routine may include:
-
Cleansing and toning
-
Treatment serums or corrective products
-
Hydrating creams or moisturizers
-
Products targeting discoloration or visible aging
-
Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen
Patients using multiple active products may benefit from guidance on the order and frequency of application. This can help reduce unnecessary irritation while keeping the regimen focused on the patient’s primary goals.
