Dull Skin? Here’s How to Get Your Glow Back
If your skin looks tired, flat, or lacking vibrance, you’re not alone. Dullness is one of the most common skin complaints we see at Platinum Cosmetics — and it has nothing to do with age or skin type. In most cases, dull skin is the result of slow cell turnover, dehydration, and environmental stress.
Luckily, with the right treatments and products, radiance can be restored.
What Causes Dull Skin?
There are a few key culprits behind dull or uneven skin tone:
Build-up of dead skin cells
Dehydration and transepidermal water loss
Pollution and UV exposure
Stress or fatigue
Lack of active ingredients in your skincare
If your skin feels flat no matter how much moisturiser you apply, it’s likely time to exfoliate, brighten, and hydrate from the inside out.
In-Clinic Treatments to Boost Radiance
At our Port Melbourne clinic, we often recommend a multi-modal approach to dull skin. Some of our most effective options include:
Fotona laser treatments — non-invasive skin rejuvenation that targets texture, tone, and collagen
Facials — including chemical peels or enzyme-based exfoliation
Skin rejuvenation treatments with dermal therapies to support cellular turnover and hydration
These in-clinic treatments are tailored to your skin’s unique needs and always begin with a professional consultation.
