Keeping your skin results in summer

Many people think they have to wait until autumn to improve their skin. That is understandable: we mainly do intensive peels and laser treatments in the months with little sun. But there is also plenty you can do for your skin in summer. Then it is mainly about maintaining what you built up in winter.

In summer we therefore choose treatments that protect and hydrate the skin. That way pigmentation, dull skin or fine lines have less chance of coming back.

Why the skin needs extra attention in summer

The skin has a hard time in summer. UV radiation, heat, sweat, swimming pool water and air conditioning affect the skin barrier. The skin dries out faster, produces more pigment and loses the freshness you built up in winter.

We do not do intensive skin renewal in these months. We choose lighter maintenance treatments that are safe, as long as you protect your skin well against the sun.

Peel to Glow and Instant Glow

Would you like a treatment that shows results straight away, without downtime? Then a Peel to Glow or Instant Glow Facial is a good choice.

In this treatment we gently exfoliate the skin and then give it plenty of nourishment. Because the dead skin cells are gone, the skin immediately looks smoother and absorbs active ingredients better. The skin becomes fresher and more even.

This treatment is a good fit if you:

• have dull skin;
• want to look fresh for a holiday or party;
• want to keep your skin hydrated;
• want to maintain the results of earlier treatments.

Mild Renophase peels with LED

A peel does not have to be heavy. The Renophase peels improve the skin without a long recovery time. That is why we can use some of them in summer too, if you protect your skin well against the sun.

We choose the peel based on your skin, for example for pigmentation, dull skin, early skin ageing, blemishes or sensitive skin.

The peel is followed by LED light therapy. The light supports skin recovery, reduces redness and boosts collagen production. This makes the peel work better and helps the skin calm down faster.

The Mela O2 treatment for skin prone to pigmentation

If you are prone to pigment spots or melasma, summer calls for extra attention.

The Mela O2 treatment intensively cares for the skin and helps slow down pigment production. The antioxidants and strengthening ingredients protect the skin better against external influences, which gives pigment less of a chance.

This treatment is especially suitable if you:

• are prone to melasma;
• suffer from pigment spots;
• want to keep your complexion even;
• want to protect the results of your winter treatments.

A daily SPF and a cream that inhibits pigment remain necessary.

Maintenance pays off

Skin that you maintain well in summer stays fresh for longer, develops fewer new pigment spots and stays better hydrated. It also recovers faster after treatments in the autumn, so less needs to be done in winter.

Which summer treatment suits you?

During a consultation we look at your skin, at what you would like to achieve and at the treatments you have already had. With that we draw up a plan for the summer, so your skin still looks just as good in the autumn.
