Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, this product is safe for the skin of the face. All our products go through rigorous quality control testing and have been through testing in clinical studies.

Our products are produced in small, in-house batches and are made with ingredients that are shelf stable for up to 12 months if stored correctly. This should include keeping them out of extreme heat and cold.

Our ( plated )™ products should be applied first, after cleansing, and allowed to dry for 5-10 minutes before applying additional products.

INTENSE is our most concentrated serum and is designed for more mature skin, showing signs of damage. We recommend a 6–12-week treatment of INTENSE.  After 12 weeks you can transition to DAILY for ongoing use. DAILY is a very moisturizing formula that increases luminosity and overall color evenness. DAILY will also maintain the results achieved with INTENSE.

While results can vary based on skin type and reason for use, most participants in clinical trials saw a positive impact after using their products for just 6 weeks.

Vitamin C and retinol pair well with our ( plated )™ products.  

We do not recommend storing any of your products where they will be exposed to temperatures less than 10°c or greater than 35°c for extended periods of time.

The carrier gel used within INTENSE and DAILY contains a naturally occurring substance called hyaluronic acid. This molecule, which is naturally found in the body, works to increase skin moisture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

( plated )™ is a cosmetic topical product line. At this time, it has not been approved by the FDA for use in micro-needling procedures.

Our formulas do not contain many of today’s most harmful and questionable ingredients. At this time, however, there is not enough clinical data to support claims of safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, we always recommend that you consult with your physician before using ( plated )™ Skin Science products. A detailed ingredient list can be found on the product pages of our website.

CALM Serum

( plated )™ CALM can be applied 2-3 times a day after an ablative or non-ablative procedure to help decrease recovery time and enhance the results of the procedure.

CALM is designed as a post-procedure product with added ingredients for moisture, soothing the skin and tolerability for post-procedure skin.

Most patients transition to DAILY Serum after CALM. DAILY will maintain the results achieved with the procedure and CALM and add additional luminosity and glow to your skin.

Patients using ( plated )™ CALM demonstrated significant improvement within 5 days post-procedure.

An Ultra Pulse CO2 laser was used in the study at the following settings: Energy: 125 mJ, Density: 3, 10 HZ, Size: 5-7, Pattern: 1

As a cosmetic, ( plated )™ is classified only for use on intact skin. During its initial phases in clinical trials, CALM was applied right after CO2. However, you may choose to initiate CALM application on the day after any laser procedure.

( plated )™ products are absorbed into the skin through cells of the epidermis and through hair follicles. The molecular structure of the exosome is under 500kd, which allows for easy penetration through the skin.
