Spring is all about renewal and rejuvenation. Flowers are blooming, trees are blossoming with lush green leaves, and the world feels refreshed and thriving.
Along with the refreshing feeling of the new season, we tend to do our own spring cleaning. We rid ourselves of clothing, and possessions that no longer serve purpose. We plant gardens and enjoy the time outside, excited for the sunny days and warmer weather.
And just like the seasons, and our spring cleaning rituals, our bodies, our skin in particular, goes through changes as well.
That’s why it’s important to switch up and refresh your skincare routine to go along with the seasons and the changes in your skin!
Sparkly Snow, Dull Skin – How The Winter Weather Affects Your Skin
Cold air, windy days, the change in humidity, and the combination of the cold temps outside and the heat indoors, can leave your skin dehydrated, dry and even flaky.
Those who have sensitive skin, redness and skin conditions such as eczema can experience and increase in those conditions due to the harsher weather conditions.
The lack of sunlight also depletes the skin of the natural nutrients and vitamins it gets during the warmer months.
Limited access to sunlight can slow skin cell turnover, which makes your skin appear duller, harsher and tired.
Heavier creams and serums packed with moisturizer and essential vitamins nutrients, like Vitamins C, D and E can help your skin stay hydrated and maintain a healthy glow.
But now that the weather has begun to change, how do we change up our skincare to reflect the better weather?
Bloom & Glow: Refresh Your Skincare This Spring
When you plant a garden, you start with good soil, seeds, plenty of water and nurture it until it grows strong and beautiful. The same goes with skincare. You have to start with the seeds, the basics, to set a good foundation for your skin to flourish and glow.
That means customized treatments designed with your skin in mind.
A few aesthetic treatments that can jumpstart your skincare refresh include:
Clinical Facials
Do you know what your skin needs? Do you have acne prone or dry skin? Do you have acne scars, discoloration or rosacea?
When you choose a clinical facial, that’s what you’ll need to know first! A complimentary skincare analysis goes along with our facials so we know exactly what products to use and what treatments will be used to give you precisely what your skin needs.
We utilize mechanical and manual extractions, chemical exfoliation, treatments masques, light therapy and more. If you’re in need of more rejuvenation, hydration and anti-aging magic our hydrafacial will hit the spot!
We also use medical-grade skincare products to enhance your treatment and ensure your skin is absorbing the best products on the market.
Even though a facial only takes about an hour, your skin will reap the rewards long after. We also include a guide on what products to use to maintain the healthy glow and flawless texture.
Chemical Peels
We know the name sounds harsh, but chemical peels aren’t scary; in fact, they are one of the most rejuvenating and revitalizing treatments available!
While more advanced than a regular facial, a chemical peel is still a non-invasive treatment. Using mild chemical-based solutions, a chemical peel will improve the surface of your skin. By exfoliating and eliminating dead skins at the base-level, you’re really starting with a “fresh face”.
You’ll find that your skin is smoother, wrinkles and pores are minimized, discoloration has evened out and textures have improved and smoothened.
Even though you are free to continue on with your daily life, you will need a few days of “down-time” without makeup, skincare products or heavy exercise that will cause sweating. It may feel like you’ve been sunburned but that feeling won’t last long either!
We offer several types of chemical peels at our medspa from light peels, to advanced corrective peels and more in between.
