Are you guilty of these summer skincare sins? If so, your routine may need a few adjustments. Here are some of the biggest mistakes that we see this time of year:
☀️ Sleeping in sunscreen after a long day outdoors
☀️ Skipping moisturizer because your skin feels oily
☀️ Over-exfoliating after sun exposure
☀️ Forgetting sunscreen on your lips, ears, and scalp
☀️ Not reapplying SPF throughout the day

Summer weather can be tough on your skin. Heat, humidity, sweat, and increased UV exposure can lead to dehydration, breakouts, irritation, and flare-ups of existing skin conditions.

Hydration, daily sunscreen, and a consistent skincare routine can help keep your skin healthy all season long.

Dark spots don't appear out of nowhere. Hyperpigmentation develops when excess melanin is produced after inflammation, sun exposure, hormonal changes, acne, bug bites, or skin injuries. While the discoloration can linger for months, there are effective ways to improve its appearance.

Depending on your skin, treatment options may include medical-grade skincare, chemical peels, laser treatments, or microneedling. Call us for your personalized treatment plan now! Services may vary by location.

Pool days are fun. Chlorine, sun exposure, and sweat are not.

Summer activities can leave skin feeling dry, irritated, congested, and more prone to breakouts. After a day at the pool, be sure to rinse off chlorine, cleanse your skin, apply a moisturizer, and don't forget to reapply your sunscreen throughout the day.

Folliculitis is inflammation of the hair follicles that can be caused by bacteria, yeast, irritation from shaving, friction, sweat, or even tight clothing. It commonly appears on the face, chest, back, legs, and bikini area.

The good news? Folliculitis is treatable. Your dermatologist can help determine the cause and recommend the right treatment plan for your skin.

Happy 4th of July! ❤️🤍💙

We hope you have a fun, safe holiday filled with family, friends, and sunshine. Don't forget to reapply your sunscreen throughout the day - your future skin will thank you!

Vacation is for making memories, not stressing about your skincare routine. When you're packing, stick with the essentials and leave behind products that can be irritating if you'll be spending lots of time in the sun, like strong exfoliants. A simple, consistent routine is often all your skin needs while you're away!

Collagen is one of the main proteins responsible for keeping skin firm, smooth, and youthful-looking. As we age, our natural collagen production gradually slows down, which can contribute to fine lines, loss of elasticity, thinning skin, and texture changes over time.

Many aesthetic treatments are designed to help stimulate collagen production, including:
✨ Microneedling
✨ Chemical peels
✨ Laser treatments
✨ Biostimulators (like PRP and PRX)
✨ Sculptra
✨ Medical-grade skincare

Supporting collagen production can help improve skin texture, firmness, and overall skin quality for healthier-looking skin over time.

Your skin barrier plays an important role in protecting your skin, locking in moisture, and keeping irritants out. But over-exfoliating, too many active ingredients, harsh products, sun exposure, weather changes, and even stress can weaken it over time.

Here are some signs that your skin barrier may be damaged, and what to do about it ⬆️
