Treatments to Preserve Youthful Skin?

I have had several superficial peels, Microdermabrasion, and 2 IPL treatments in the past. What is a good treatment regimen with regards to professional procedures I can do to keep my skin young looking for as long as possible?

I was thinking about doing the Triniti skin series of 3 with a maintenance every 6 months. What are your suggestions? Thanks so much.
