SkinBetter Science Skincare Results and Safety Considerations
Understanding how formulation, application technique, and skin biology affect your results helps set realistic expectations and ensures a positive experience.
Achieving Natural-Looking Results
Because SkinBetter Science works with your skin’s natural renewal processes, improvements appear gradually and look authentically yours. The patented delivery systems allow potent actives to reach their target without overwhelming the surface, so results include a balanced glow rather than a forced, artificial look. Consistency is key—by using the products as directed, fine lines soften, tone evens out, and luminosity increases in a way that harmonizes with your unique complexion.
Your skin’s baseline condition, age, and lifestyle factors—such as sun exposure and diet—will influence the pace and extent of change. Regular check-ins with our team ensure your regimen is adjusted to maintain momentum and keep results looking fresh and natural.
Where Are the Incisions?
SkinBetter Science is a topical treatment, so no incisions are required.
The absence of surgical incisions means no scars to manage or conceal.
Is Scarring a Concern?
Because SkinBetter Science is non-invasive, scarring is not a concern. Mild redness or dryness may occur initially but typically resolves quickly.
Skin Adjustment Timeline
Your skin may go through minor phases as it acclimates:
- Weeks 1-2
Possible transient dryness or flaking with active products - Months 1-3
Skin barrier strengthens, revealing smoother texture - Around 6 months
Sustained collagen stimulation supports firmer, more youthful skin - 1-2 years
Continued maintenance preserves and enhances results
Proper hydration, sun protection, and adherence to guidance optimize skin health over time.
Understanding Risks and Safety
Understanding Risks and Safety
SkinBetter Science products are dermatologist-tested and generally well tolerated. Nonetheless, any active skincare can occasionally cause temporary side effects.
Potential risks may include:
- Mild redness or irritation
- Dryness or flaking
- Purging of clogged pores
- Allergic reaction to specific ingredients
- Photosensitivity with inadequate sun protection
- Eye irritation if applied too close to the lash line
Your specialist will review these risks with you in detail during your consultation and explain how they are minimized through gradual product introduction and ongoing monitoring.
Reducing Your Risk
Your safety is a top priority at South Coast Plastic Surgery. Steps taken to support a safe SkinBetter Science experience include:
- Patch testing for sensitive skin when indicated
- Customized product layering and frequency
- Clear instructions on sun protection
- Regular follow-up to adjust strength as your skin adapts
By following professional guidance and communicating any concerns promptly, most patients enjoy comfortable use and impressive results.
The cost of your procedure will vary based on a variety of factors. During your consultation, your doctor will discuss your desired outcomes in detail and provide a fully transparent breakdown of all associated costs. Our practice helps patients achieve their aesthetic goals with a variety of financing options.

Dr. Song performed my breast implant surgery nearly 10 yrs ago with the ideal breast implant. I've had no issues in this time. I live on the other side of the country now, but I would've loved to come back for removal, since I'm on an all natural journey. I hope to find someone who can take care of me, keep me safe, & assured during & after surgery as Dr. Song & his staff did.
Thank you Dr. Song. I’m 10 days post opp and am so happy with my experience with my mommy makeover! I can’t tell you how comfortable Dr. Song and his staff made me feel throughout this whole process. Surgery is a bit of a scary decision and sometimes I agonized about for years but I can promise you are in the best care with this team. I highly highly recommend them and am already so happy with my results !
