Optimising recovery begins well before the procedure and continues until tissue is stable:

Nutrition & oils

Avoid inflammatory seed oils (soybean, corn, sunflower, safflower, canola, grapeseed, cottonseed) which raise oxidative stress. Prefer cold-pressed olive oil (dark glass), coconut oil, ghee, pure raw butter, and grass-fed tallow.

Hydration & electrolytes

Pair water with minerals (e.g., Celtic sea salt) to support collagen synthesis, circulation, and tissue repair.

Environmental load

Reduce exposure to harsh detergents, petrochemical skincare, plastics/aluminium cookware, and polluted air during the healing window.

Nervous system & sleep

Rest, nature, laughter, and uplifting company help counter cortisol and support regenerative chemistry before and after surgery.

Lifestyle habits

Pause smoking, alcohol, and late-night stimulants; change pillowcases/towels daily; avoid picking, scrubbing, or heat (sun/sauna) until cleared by your surgeon.

Medication guidance

Follow your surgeon’s protocol. Some medications (e.g., corticosteroids, blood thinners) influence healing dynamics and must be managed professionally.

Matriskin’s biotechnology-led system prepares skin before surgery and restores it after — strengthening structure, calming inflammation, and shielding fragile tissue.

Key strategies

• Tissue reinforcement (pre-op) — Collagen M/P Serum and TR/5 Cream support fibroblasts and adipocytes to improve elasticity and density.
• Barrier rebuilding — RL/3 Serum and RL/3 Cream replenish essential lipids and ceramide precursors to reduce TEWL and increase comfort.
• Second-skin protection — CR/7 Cream applies a breathable Biosaccharide Gum-4 veil to defend healing areas from friction and pollutants.
• Cellular regeneration — Power Defense Serum delivers peptides, growth factors, and marine antioxidants to accelerate recovery.
• Progressive rejuvenation — High Performance Cream re-enters in later stages to maintain smoothness, hydration, and resilience.

Note: All formulas are fragrance-free, non-photosensitising, and suitable for day-or-night use as directed by your clinician.

Collagen M/P Serum

Pre-Op Strength — Firmness & Elasticity

• Marine collagen and peptides support structural integrity ahead of surgery.
• Improves tone and texture to prime tissue for optimal healing.
• Layers easily under creams without heaviness.

TR/5 Cream

Volume Support — Elasticity & Cushion

• Voluform® (palmitoyl isoleucine) targets volume loss and suppleness.
• Deep hydration enhances comfort pre- and post-operatively (when cleared).
• Ideal for areas prone to thinning.

RL/3 Serum

Barrier Rebuild — Lipid & Ceramide Support

• Replenishes essential fatty acids and ceramide precursors.
• Stabilises compromised skin and reduces reactivity.
• Helps limit moisture loss during recovery.

RL/3 Cream

Soothing Hydration — Daily Comfort

• Niacinamide and vitamin E calm visible redness and irritation.
• Provides sustained moisture for fragile, sensitised skin.
• Keeps the surface comfortable while deeper repair continues.

CR/7 Cream

Protective Recovery — “Second-Skin” Shield

• Biosaccharide Gum-4 forms a breathable protective film over healing areas.
• D-panthenol and hydrators relieve heat and tightness.
• Ideal immediately post-procedure per clinician guidance.

Power Defense Serum

Regenerative Defense — Peptides & Growth Factors

• Supports collagen renewal and strengthens newly formed tissue.
• Marine antioxidants help counter oxidative stress.
• Layers under creams to sustain repair benefits.

High Performance Cream

Later-Stage Renewal — Lightweight Peptide Care

• Peptides, HA, and biosaccharides refine texture and luminosity.
• Reintroduced once skin stabilises to maintain results.
• Comfortable in all routines and climates.
