What type of skin requires special consideration during treatments?

Sensitive skin requires special consideration during treatments due to its heightened reaction to various stimuli and products. This type of skin is often more prone to irritation, redness, and allergic reactions, which can be exacerbated by harsh ingredients, certain environmental factors, and aggressive treatments.

When working with sensitive skin, it’s essential to choose gentle products that are formulated to soothe and protect the skin barrier. Treatments may need to be customized to avoid potentially irritating techniques or ingredients, and practitioners must be careful to assess the client's comfort level throughout the process. Understanding the characteristics of sensitive skin ensures that the appropriate techniques are employed to minimize discomfort and maximize the effectiveness of the treatment.

Other skin types such as oily, dry, and combination skin also require attention, but they typically do not involve the same level of sensitivity and risk for reaction as sensitive skin does. The treatment approach for these skin types often focuses on managing excess oil, hydrating dryness, or balancing the skin, rather than prioritizing avoidance of discomfort and irritation which is critical for sensitive skin.
