Now that summer’s over and cooler weather is approaching, it is time to take a closer look at your facial skin. While sun exposure during the summer may have left some lasting damage, the cool, often dryer winter weather can continue to wreak havoc on your skin.
Addressing these concerns with winter skin treatments and wrinkle treatments can help you keep your skin looking hydrated and healthy during the winter months.
Keep Your Skin Moist and Healthy
As the cold season approaches in Florida, your skin is exposed to cooler air, lower humidity levels, and UV light which can cause dry, flaky, and damaged skin. Keeping your skin hydrated is essential during this time. Ways to combat this damage can include avoiding hot showers to maintain your skin’s natural moisture and increasing your water intake to nourish your skin from the inside out.
Address Potential Sun Damage and Wrinkles
The winter months offer the perfect time to address potential sun damage that may have occurred over the summer, resulting in new wrinkles, age spots, and loose skin. Treatments such as microneedling, chemical peels and Lumecca intense-pulsed light can address sun damage, age spots, fine lines, and remove old skin cells to reveal firmer, even-toned, more supple skin. At the same time, treatments like BOTOX® and dermal fillers can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while also restoring lost volume to deliver a more youthful appearance.
Don’t Forget the Sunscreen
While the winter months bring cooler temperatures and often a reduction in UV levels, sun damage is still possible. Here in Florida, the sun continues to shine year-round, and sunscreen is just as important during these winter months even if you aren’t out enjoying the sun as often as during the summer.
Applying daily sunscreen will help combat additional sun damage and keep your skin looking youthful and supple.
