Safe Treatments for Glowing Summer Skin

Summer is the season of sunshine, beach days, and outdoor adventures! But while you’re enjoying warmth and fun, your skin needs some extra love to stay healthy, glowing, and safe. If you’re considering skin treatments this season, it is important to choose options that complement the summer environment and won’t compromise your skin’s health.

Let’s explore three safe and effective treatments we offer at DermaPrecision that promise radiant skin while ensuring maximum protection from the sun: Vivace Radiofrequency Microneedling, BioRePeel, and the DiamondGlow Facial.

1. Vivace: The Ultimate Microneedling with Radiofrequency

Vivace is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment that combines microneedling with laser heat, otherwise known as radiofrequency (RF) energy. This treatment helps tighten, tone, and rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen production. The RF energy penetrates deeper layers of the skin, maximizing the effects of microneedling. Vivace is especially effective for targeting fine lines, wrinkles, pore size, skin sagging, and skin texture issues.

Why Vivace is Safe for Summer:

Minimal Downtime: Immediately following treatment, the skin may appear a reddish pink color. This redness typically subsides within a few hours, and even faster when we apply topical rejuvenating serums that contain growth factors (such as Ariessence pure PDGF). Within a couple days, you may resume your normal activities.
Minimal Sun-Sensitivity: While it is important to avoid immediate sun exposure after treatment, it is safe to return to normal outdoor activities within a few days.

Customizable Treatment: Vivace RF Microneedling is completely customizable to the individual patient. If you find yourself struggling with melasma or other hyperpigmentation concerns, the treatment can be tailored to your skin’s needs in order to minimize risk of worsening these conditions.

But don’t forget: Always apply and re-apply broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher after a Vivace session to protect your newly rejuvenated skin! Colorescience is our favorite!

2. BioRePeel: The Skin-Loving Chemical Peel

BioRePeel is a medical-grade chemical peel that works to exfoliate, renew, and brighten your skin. Unlike many peels that are too harsh for summer, BioRePeel is designed to spare the outermost layer of our skin, decreasing its vulnerability to sun exposure. This one-of-a-kind peel works from the inside-out. It has two phases of action that stimulate collagen and address a varity of skin concerns, including acne, sun spots, fine lines, and overall skin texture.

Why BioRePeel is Safe for Summer:

Non-Photosensitizing Formula: BioRePeel is unique from most peels in that it does not make your skin reactive to the sun. Traditional peels usually come with a significant amount of shedding or sloughing. These typically require a patient to avoid sun exposure for a minimum of a week. BioRePeel produces minimal shedding (if any), while also being maximally effective, making it ideal for warmer weather.
Gentle Yet Effective: While it offers deep exfoliation and collagen and elastin stimulation, BioRePeel is much less irritating than other chemical peels. Although it does not appear that much is happening from the outside, BioRePeel contains 35% TCA for maximal skin rejuvenation.

Ideal for Sensitive Skin: The formula is gentle enough for most skin types, including sensitive skin, which is particularly important when you’re already exposed to summer sun and outdoor elements.

Pro Tip: Pair Alastin A-luminate Serum to stop pigment production and improve overall skin tone in conjunction with your BioRePeel series for best results!

3. DiamondGlow: A 3-in-1 Facial Treatment

DiamondGlow is a non-invasive, three-in-one facial treatment that combines exfoliation, extraction, and infusion of nourishing serums. Using a personally-selected diamond-tipped wand, DiamondGlow gently exfoliates the outermost layer of the skin. At the same time as it exfoliates, the DiamondGlow device extracts impurities (dirt and oil) and delivers a medical grade serum to target specific skin concerns like dehydration, fine lines, or dullness.

Why DiamondGlow is Safe for Summer:

No Downtime, Immediate Glow: With no need for recovery time, you can resume your normal activities right after your session. The immediate results—radiant, hydrated, and glowing skin—make it perfect for a pre-summer event or a quick refresh.
Non-Abrasive: DiamondGlow’s gentle approach means you don’t have to worry about irritation or post-treatment peeling, making it a great choice for sensitive, dehydrated, or sun-exposed skin during the summer.
Customizable Serums: DiamondGlow allows for a personalized serum infusion that matches your skin’s needs, whether that’s brightening, aging, hydration, or acne treatment.

Pro Tip: Pair DiamondGlow with a multi-tasking product like Alastin Restorative Skin Complex to help maintain your results beyond the treatment room!

My final thoughts

Maintaining your glow while ensuring your skin stays safe under the summer sun is a balancing act. Luckily, treatments like Vivace RF Microneedling, BioRePeel, and the DiamondGlow Facial offer the perfect solutions. These versatile treatments target multiple skin concerns without adding stress or sensitivity to your skin in hot weather. Instead of compromising your skin which can lead to further damage during the summer, these treatments work with your skin’s natural processes to rejuvenate, hydrate, and refresh.

Remember, no matter which treatment you choose, protecting your skin from the sun should always be TOP priority! Always apply and re-apply SPF 30 or higher – whether you are in the sun or not – to safeguard your skin while enjoying your summer fun.

Until next time,
