Summer is a season of sunshine, beach trips, and outdoor fun. However, it’s also a time when our skin can take a beating from prolonged sun exposure. Sun damage, characterized by dark spots, fine lines, and an uneven skin tone, is a common concern during these months. Fortunately, we have curated a list of Doctor recommended medical spa treatments that can help reverse or prevent these effects, and a solid skincare routine is crucial for maintaining those results. Here's a look at some of the most effective medical spa treatments to consider this summer.
Chemical peels are a fantastic option for treating sun-damaged skin. They work by removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, promoting new cell growth and revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath. Depending on the severity of the damage, your dermatologist or aesthetician may recommend a light, medium, or deep peel. They can also be beneficial in enhancing the effectiveness of your skin care, maintaining a clear complexion, and improving skin texture and tone.
IPL therapy, also known as photofacial, uses light energy to target and break down melanin, the pigment that causes dark spots. This treatment not only reduces pigmentation but also stimulates collagen production, which can help improve the skin's texture and reduce fine lines. Summer activities can sometimes lead to broken capillaries and redness, especially on the face. IPL effectively treats these vascular lesions by targeting the blood vessels, reducing redness, and improving the appearance of the skin.
Secret RF Microneedling with Radio Frequency is an advanced treatment that combines microneedling with the power of radiofrequency energy. This procedure creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body's natural healing process while delivering RF energy deep into the skin layers. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, effectively reducing sun spots, fine lines, and uneven skin texture, leaving your skin looking rejuvenated and firm.
SkinVive by Juvederm is an injectable hydrator that works to improve the skin’s hydration levels from within. Unlike traditional fillers, SkinVive focuses on enhancing the skin’s overall texture and radiance. This treatment is perfect for sun-damaged skin as it provides deep hydration, making the skin look plump and healthy, and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by sun exposure.
A Hydrafacial is a non-invasive treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection. It's perfect for sun-damaged skin as it deeply cleanses and hydrates, improving overall skin health and appearance without any downtime.
A consistent skincare routine is the backbone of healthy, radiant skin. It helps to maintain the results of your medical spa treatments and protects your skin from further damage. Here's why a good skincare routine matters:
