Calm, comfortable skin post procedure.
Your skin has just been through a treatment, or it simply runs sensitive, and right now it feels warm, tight and reactive. You want it to settle so you can get on with your week.
CALM visibly soothes and comforts sensitive skin, including post procedure. It carries Plated's platelet derived exosomes in a gentle base with beta glucan for extra comfort. Plated makes it for skin professionals only.
Who It Is For
Every skin type, especially skin that is easily flushed, sensitive, dehydrated, congested or showing sun damage, and skin post procedure.
Acne Safe
What You Will See, and When
Skin feels more comfortable from the first application. In a published pilot study, skin using CALM post procedure looked calmer and brighter within two weeks.
How to Use
Morning and night, smooth two to three pumps over clean skin immediately after cleansing, before anything else. If you use HyaCyn, mist it first and let it dry fully. Let CALM dry completely before your moisturizer, and in the morning finish with sunscreen. It suits skin post procedure and any day your skin feels sensitive.
The Science
Exosomes are nano sized vesicles. Each carries proteins, peptides and antioxidant enzymes. Plated's exosomes come from human platelets. They are sourced from regulated US donation banks and purified by gentle filtration that keeps each vesicle's outer membrane intact, which is why the serum is stable at room temperature.
In a published pilot study, skin using CALM post procedure looked calmer and brighter within two weeks.
Beta glucan is a long chain sugar that holds water at the skin's surface and helps it feel soothed.
Questions
Where does it go in my routine?First, right after cleansing, or right after HyaCyn once it is fully dry. Let it absorb, then apply your moisturizer. In the morning, sunscreen goes on last.
Can I use it when I have not had a treatment?Yes. CALM suits sensitive or reactive skin day to day, and Plated formulates it for every skin type.
Does it replace my moisturizer?No. It goes on first and your moisturizer follows.
Why a Routine Made for You Works Better
General advice is written for everyone, so it has to assume nothing about you. It can tell you what is safe. It cannot tell you what will work for your skin.
Skin changes when it is challenged just enough, then given time to recover and adapt. That amount is different for every person, and it moves as your skin gets stronger. Ask too much and your skin spends its energy recovering instead of improving. Ask too little and nothing changes. Finding that point for you, and moving it at the right time, is where results come from.
Where that point sits depends on:
-
Your skin: its history, how it reacts, and what it is doing today
-
Your health: hormones, medications, pregnancy and any condition that changes how skin behaves
-
Your lifestyle: sleep, stress, diet, sun, exercise and climate
-
Your routine: what you use now, and what has and has not worked before
-
Your goals: what you most want to change
-
Your expectations and timeline: how soon you want to see change, and what is realistic for your skin
-
Your consistency: how much time and how many steps you will keep up with, because the best routine is the one you actually do
-
Your treatments: what you have had and what you have planned
A skin therapist weighs all of this, builds a routine you can keep, and adjusts it as your skin responds. That is why we guarantee our products when they are part of a routine designed by one of our skin therapists. If you have been reading general advice, bring your questions. We will help you sort out what applies to you and what does not.
