The long-awaited spring season is just around the corner and most of us are already ditching sweaters for t-shirts. But don’t forget it’s also time to do some spring cleaning for our skin! We are all really over the months of extreme cold weather, dry air, and less sunshine and so is our skin! It’s probably feeling a little dull and tired too. No worries! Now is the perfect time to give it the glow-up it’s been waiting for.
So, let’s dive into some of the best treatments along with what changes you can make to your daily routines to get your glow on.
Skin Spring Reset
Winter is harsh on our skin with the cold air outside and the heat indoors – the combination really dries it out. This leads to flakiness, tightness, and a lack of glow. Plus, we tend to move less, drink less water, and spend more time indoors.
When spring finally appears, we are eager to get outside, so our skin is exposed to more sunlight, warmer temperatures, and changing humidity. That means our products and treatments need to adjust too.
A bit of advice as we dive into spring? Most of our favorite treatments can also work wonders on our necks. If people are seeing our faces, they are seeing our necks!
Chemical Peels
Say goodbye to dull, dry winter skin. A light to medium peel helps exfoliate dead skin cells, smooth texture, and fade dark spots, especially from sun damage. You’ll walk away with a fresh, healthy-looking glow.
Hydrafacial/Hydrofacial
These medical-grade facials cleanse, exfoliate, and deeply hydrate your skin. They’re safe to do year-round and perfect for spring because they offer instant results with zero downtime. Think: smoother skin, smaller pores, and a glow that turns heads.
Microneedling with PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor)
SkinPen Microneedling with PDGF helps achieve transformational results! For those seeking maximum rejuvenation, we recommend integrating these treatments as it leverages the micro-injury-induced collagen boost with the powerful regenerative properties of PDGF, resulting in more accelerated healing, enhanced skin firmness, and a more radiant complexion. Tailored treatment plans can be designed based on individual skin concerns and goals, making this duo a versatile and effective approach to achieving youthful, healthy skin. It also helps with fine lines, acne scars, and overall skin texture. Spring is a great time to do microneedling since you still have time to heal before full-on summer sun.
Sciton Laser Hair Removal
Want to be smooth by summer? Start now. It takes a few sessions to see full results, and spring is the perfect window before sun exposure gets in the way. Whether it’s underarms, bikini, legs, or face, this is your go-to pre-summer move and can be done on tanned skin!
MOXI Laser
Moxi laser is an ideal, gentle "lunchtime" treatment for spring to reverse winter dullness, treat sun damage, address fine lines, uneven tone and texture while giving you a radiant glow before summer. It requires minimal downtime, is safe for all skin tones, and can be paired with BBL for enhanced results. A series of 3-4 sessions is recommended for optimal rejuvenation. Hint: It acts as a preventative "prejuvenation" measure also to boost collagen and refresh skin after winter, clearing up "winter hangover" skin.
Injectables
If you’ve been hibernating all winter, spring is the time to refresh your look. A little Botox, filler, or Sculptra can soften lines, lift features, and get you photo-ready for weddings, vacations, and spring events.
A Few Skincare Swaps to Try at Home
- Use Lighter Moisturizers: Swap out heavy creams for gel or lotion-based moisturizers that still hydrate but don’t feel greasy.
- Add Antioxidants (like Vitamin C): These help protect your skin from pollution and sun damage while also brightening your complexion.
- Don’t Skip SPF: The sun is stronger in spring, even when it’s cloudy. Wear sunscreen every day, especially if you're doing treatments like peels or lasers.
- Start Gentle Exfoliation: Exfoliating 1–2 times a week helps remove dead skin and boost your glow. Just be careful not to overdo it.
Hydration is Key though! Spring can bring fluctuating weather, which can sometimes leave skin feeling dehydrated. Drinking plenty of water is crucial, but using hydrating skincare products can also give your skin the boost it needs.
Spring is the season of renewal, and our skin deserves a fresh start too. Whether it’s a glow-boosting facial, a smart skincare switch or a laser treatment, small steps now will lead to big results by summer.
