Summer brings sunshine, outdoor activities, and unfortunately, potential sun damage to your skin. Overexposure to the sun can lead to premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and other skin concerns. Thankfully, The Plastic Surgery Center offers a range of minimally invasive treatments at our medical spa to help combat and reverse the effects of summer sun damage. Here’s a look at some of the top services that can keep your skin looking youthful and vibrant:
Chemical Peels
One of the most effective treatments for addressing sun damage is a chemical peel. This procedure uses a solution applied to the skin to remove dead skin cells and promote regeneration of new skin. Depending on the extent of the sun damage, different strengths of peels are available. Chemical peels can improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and diminish the appearance of dark spots caused by sun exposure.
Microneedling
Microneedling is another excellent option for revitalizing sun-damaged skin. This treatment involves using fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which stimulates the body’s natural healing process and promotes collagen production. Microneedling can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, sunspots, and scars, and it enhances the overall texture of the skin.
IPL Photofacial
Intense pulsed light (IPL) photofacial is a technology used to target various skin concerns, including sun damage, age spots, and broken capillaries. The light energy penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the pigmentation and vascular irregularities, breaking them down. The result is clearer, more even-toned skin with a significant reduction in signs of sun damage.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
For those looking for a more intense treatment, laser skin resurfacing can provide dramatic results. This treatment uses concentrated laser beams to remove damaged outer layers of skin. It’s highly effective for treating deep wrinkles, sunspots, and uneven skin texture. Recovery time is minimal, making it a perfect choice for busy individuals who want significant results with little downtime.
HydraFacial MD®
HydraFacial MD® is a soothing treatment that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection simultaneously. This non-invasive procedure can help mitigate sun damage by improving hydration and clearing up pigmentation issues. It’s gentle on your skin and perfect for all skin types.
