When most people think of acne, they picture awkward teenage years and oily skin. But adult acne is surprisingly common — especially among women in their 20s, 30s, and even 40s. And no, it’s not just “hormones” or “poor hygiene.”1. Hormonal FluctuationsMonthly cycles, pregnancy, menopause — all can trigger hormonal shifts.Increased androgens stimulate oil production, clogging pores.This is why many women notice breakouts around their jawline during certain times of the month.2. StressStress increases cortisol levels, which signals oil glands to go into overdrive.More oil = more clogged pores = more breakouts.It’s why breakouts often appear right before big presentations, weddings, or deadlines.3. Diet & LifestyleHigh-glycemic foods (white bread, sugary snacks) and dairy can worsen acne in some people.Lack of sleep and dehydration also weaken the skin’s barrier, making it prone to inflammation.4. Skincare & Makeup HabitsUsing products that are too harsh strips the skin, causing it to produce more oil.Heavy makeup or non–oil-free products can clog pores, especially if not fully removed at night.5. GeneticsIf your parents dealt with adult acne, you may be more prone to it.Your skin type, oil production, and inflammatory response can all be inherited.6. Medical Conditions & MedicationsPolycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and certain medications (like corticosteroids) can trigger breakouts.In these cases, treatment often needs a medical and lifestyle approach combined.How to Treat Adult Acne EffectivelyGentle cleansing twice a day — no over-washing.Targeted actives like salicylic acid, niacinamide, and retinoids.Hydration to balance oil production (yes, oily skin needs moisture).Professional treatments like Cell Lab’s Korean Skin Botox, acne facials, and skin boosters to reduce inflammation and prevent scarring.Adult acne isn’t a sign you’re “dirty” or “doing skincare wrong” — it’s your skin’s way of communicating that something inside or outside is triggering it. At Cell Lab Beauty Clinic, we can pinpoint the root cause and design a treatment plan tailored to your skin type and lifestyle.

Knowing your skin type is the first and most important step in building an effective skincare routine. Without this knowledge, you might be using products that work against your skin — causing more problems instead of solving them.Let’s break it down: what are the different skin types, how do you know yours, and why should you care?🧴 The 5 Main Skin Types1. NormalFeels balanced — not too oily, not too dryFew breakouts, minimal sensitivitySmall, barely visible pores✨ Lucky you! Normal skin is low-maintenance but still needs basic care to stay healthy and protected.2. OilyShiny, especially on the forehead, nose, and chin (T-zone)Prone to blackheads, acne, and enlarged poresMakeup may slide off easily💡 Oily skin needs lightweight, non-comedogenic products that help control sebum without stripping.3. DryFeels tight, rough, or flaky — especially after cleansingMay look dull or have dry patchesCan be sensitive to temperature changes💧 Dry skin craves hydration and barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides or hyaluronic acid.4. CombinationOily in some areas (usually T-zone), dry or normal in others (cheeks, jaw)Might feel like you're battling two skin types at once🔄 The key is balance — using targeted products for different zones or gentle formulas for all-over care.5. SensitiveEasily irritated by new products or weather changesRedness, stinging, or itchiness may occurCan coexist with any of the above types🚨 Sensitive skin needs calm, fragrance-free, hypoallergenic products — and a patch test is a must.🔍 How to Identify Your Skin Type at HomeHere’s a simple method to try:The Bare-Faced TestWash your face with a gentle cleanser and pat dry.Leave it bare — no serums, moisturizers, or toners.Wait 2–3 hours, then observe how your skin feels and looks.What You SeeSkin TypeNo noticeable shine or drynessNormalNoticeable shine all overOilyTightness, flakinessDryShine on forehead/nose, dry cheeksCombinationRedness, stinging, irritationSensitive🙋‍♀️ Why It MattersChoosing products that match your skin type can:Prevent breakouts and irritationMaximize the effectiveness of treatments (like facials, serums, or skin boosters)Help your skin age more gracefullySave you money by avoiding trial-and-error purchasesAt Cell Lab Beauty Clinic, we always start with a personalized consultation to assess your skin type — because understanding your skin is the foundation of real results.Ready to Find Out Yours?Visit us for a skin analysis and let our experts guide you to the perfect treatment plan, backed by Korean skin science and Filipino expertise.

Most people choose skincare based on pretty packaging or viral trends — but the real secret to glowing skin is in the ingredients list. Learning to decode labels helps you skip hype, avoid irritation, and choose what’s truly good for your skin.1. Start with the Ingredient List OrderIngredients are listed from highest to lowest concentration.The first 3–5 ingredients usually make up most of the formula.Example: If “Aloe Vera” is last on the list, it’s probably there in tiny amounts for marketing, not actual results.Tip: If actives like Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) or Niacinamide are near the top, that’s a good sign.2. Learn the Names of Common ActivesHydration: Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin, PanthenolBrightening: Niacinamide, Alpha Arbutin, Vitamin CAnti-aging: Retinol, Peptides, Collagen-boosting extractsAcne-fighting: Salicylic Acid, Benzoyl Peroxide, Tea Tree Extract3. Spot Potential IrritantsFragrance/Parfum: Can trigger sensitivity in some skin typesEssential Oils: Natural, but not always gentle (lavender, citrus oils)Alcohol Denat: Can dry skin when used in high amounts4. Look for the Concentration CluesSome ingredients are effective only at certain strengths:Vitamin C: 10–20%Niacinamide: 2–5% (higher can cause redness)Salicylic Acid: 0.5–2% for over-the-counter5. Check for Expiry & PAO SymbolExpiry Date: Important for actives that degrade quickly (like Vitamin C).PAO (Period After Opening): A little jar icon with “6M” or “12M” tells you how many months it’s good for after opening.6. Watch Out for “Marketing Ingredients”Some products highlight trendy ingredients in big letters on the front but include them in minuscule amounts — always confirm their position on the list.7. Match to Your Skin TypeDry skin: Look for ceramides, fatty alcohols, oilsOily/acne-prone: Light hydrators, non-comedogenic activesSensitive: Minimal fragrance, soothing agents like centellaThe next time you shop for skincare, don’t just trust the front label — flip it around and read the truth in the ingredients. If you’re not sure, bring your products to your next Cell Lab Beauty Clinic visit and let our dermatologists break down the labels for you.

No two faces—and no two skin stories—are the same. That’s why at Cell Lab Beauty Clinic, we don’t believe in cookie-cutter treatments. Every client who walks into our clinic receives a customized, medically guided beauty plan based on their unique facial structure, skin condition, and lifestyle.We call it Precision Aesthetic Care. Here’s how it works:🧑‍⚕️ Step 1: One-on-One Doctor ConsultationEvery treatment starts with a face-to-face consultation with one of our licensed doctors. We take time to understand:Your beauty goals (lift, contour, glow, etc.)Skin type and current conditionFacial balance and natural bone structurePast treatments (if any)Lifestyle factors like stress, sleep, travel, sun exposure, etc.We don’t just look at the surface—we look at the whole picture.🔬 Step 2: Clinical Assessment + Medical MatchingUsing our aesthetic expertise, we recommend only what’s right for you—not what’s trending or what others are doing.Some examples:Want to brighten dull skin? You may benefit more from PCL boosters + IV therapy than just a facial.Looking for a slimmer jaw? We may suggest Botox for masseter slimming, not a filler.Want a sharp nose? We’ll assess whether you need Jamber threads, filler, or both for a natural result.Everything is medically indicated, and never overdone.🧩 Step 3: A Full-Plan Beauty RoadmapYou’ll receive a step-by-step plan that may include:Monthly facials for skin maintenanceSkin Botox or boosters for long-term rejuvenationStrategic timelines for threads, fillers, and IVsSkincare product guidanceWhen to return and what to expect at each phaseThis roadmap helps you save money, avoid overtreatment, and get long-term results, not just a quick fix.🌸 What Personalization Looks Like at Cell LabWe won’t offer lip fillers if you don’t need them.We say no to trends that don’t fit your face.We treat early signs of aging before they deepen.We correct asymmetry without overcorrecting your natural beauty.Because the best aesthetic result?

Not ready for surgery but dreaming of a more defined nose? The Jamber Nose Thread Lift is a non-surgical alternative that subtly reshapes and lifts the nose—without downtime or incisions.At Cell Lab Beauty Clinic, we use Jamber, a spring-type scaffold thread developed to lift, define, and enhance the nose’s shape. Unlike traditional threads, Jamber has a coiled structure that mimics a spring, allowing better flexibility and strength. This makes it ideal for enhancing the bridge and tip of the nose with natural-looking, long-lasting results.Who is it for?✔ Those with a flat or low nasal bridge✔ People who want a more lifted or refined nose tip✔ Anyone seeking nose enhancement without surgery or implantsWhat to expect:Doctor-administered procedureNo downtimeImmediate lift and shapeResults can last up to 1–2 years depending on your skin and lifestyleAs with all our injectables and thread procedures, this treatment is performed only by licensed doctors at Cell Lab. And we use only FDA-approved materials, so you can feel safe and confident in every step of your beauty journey.

When it comes to aging, the best approach isn’t to wait until the signs appear—it’s to prevent them before they deepen.At Cell Lab Beauty Clinic, we believe that anti-aging isn’t just about reversing wrinkles or lifting sagging skin. It’s about preserving your skin’s health and structure early on, so you age gracefully—with confidence and control.🕰️ When Should You Start Anti-Aging Treatments?Believe it or not, your mid-to-late 20s is the ideal time to begin a personalized anti-aging plan. Why?Collagen starts to decline as early as age 25Fine lines from facial expressions begin to formLifestyle stressors (sun, screen time, lack of sleep) accelerate agingPreventive care can delay or soften future signs of agingThe earlier you start, the more natural and long-lasting your results will be.🧴 Preventive Anti-Aging Doesn’t Mean Aggressive TreatmentsIt’s a common misconception that starting early means going overboard. In truth, early anti-aging is about gentle, skin-supportive steps like:Skin Boosters – Hydrate and strengthen your skin from withinBotox (Low Dose) – Relax early expression lines before they deepenMild Threads or Fillers – Maintain firmness and youthful volumeIV Drips + Facials – Support skin health from the inside outCustomized Skincare – Strengthen your skin barrier, fight oxidative stressThink of it as skin maintenance, not transformation.✨ Benefits of Starting EarlyDelay the need for more aggressive treatmentsMaintain natural facial movement and structureAvoid deep lines and volume loss later onBoost confidence with consistently healthy, glowing skinIt’s easier (and more affordable) to prevent than to correct.👩‍⚕️ At Cell Lab Beauty ClinicWe create doctor-designed beauty roadmaps tailored to your age, skin type, and long-term goals.

If you’re looking into injectable treatments, you’ve probably come across both skin boosters and fillers. They’re both injected into the skin, both often contain hyaluronic acid (HA), and both promise better skin… so what’s the difference?At Cell Lab Beauty Clinic, we get this question all the time—and the answer matters if you want the right treatment for your skin goals.💧 What Are Skin Boosters?Skin boosters are hydrating injections designed to improve your skin quality—not change your facial structure.They work by delivering hyaluronic acid or PCL (polycaprolactone) directly into the skin to:Deeply hydrate and plumpImprove elasticity and smoothnessMinimize fine lines and textureRestore glow and bounce✨ Think of it as an injectable moisturizer that works from the inside out.🧴 Best for: dull, dry, dehydrated, or aging skin needing overall radiance.💉 What Are Dermal Fillers?Fillers, on the other hand, are used to add volume or shape to the face. While many are also made with hyaluronic acid, they are thicker and placed deeper to sculpt and enhance. They’re used to:Contour the nose, chin, or jawlineAdd volume to cheeks or lipsSmooth out deep folds and wrinklesRestore facial structure lost from aging✨ Think of fillers as sculpting tools, while skin boosters are skin nourishers.🪞Best for: volume loss, contouring, or clients wanting sharper features.📌 Key Differences at a GlanceFeatureSkin BoosterFillerPurposeImprove skin texture & glowAdd volume, contour, liftDepth of injectionSuperficial to mid-dermisDeeper layers of the skinResultHydrated, smoother skinSharper facial featuresLookNatural, subtle radianceMore defined and structuredLongevity3–6 months6–18 months👩‍⚕️ Which One Do You Need?If your goal is better skin quality, go for a skin booster.If your goal is sharper features or volume, you’ll need a filler.
