Summer has come to an end, but the many sunny days we had this summer has your skin looking tired, dry, and damaged. With the seasons changing, you’re medical-grade skin care treatments have the job of refreshing your skin’s glow. Our team of skincare professionals are here to tell you what treatments are best to reverse summer sun damage. Continue reading our blog as we discuss the top three treatments to reverse sun damage.

How Does the Sun Damage Your Skin?

The damage caused to your skin by exposure to sunlight and UV rays is called photoaging. Photoaging is the number one cause of skin aging. These UV rays are split into two different categories; UVA and UVB rays. UVA rays are associated with aging while UVB rays are associated with burning the skin.

Identifying Summer Sun Damage

Photoaging appears in many different forms. The most common skin damage we see includes:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation
• Melasma
• Excess skin elasticity
• Visible broken capillaries
• Rosacea
• Irregular or uneven skin tone

Which Treatments Reverse Summer Damage?

Treatments that encourage cellular turnover and increased collagen productions are the best to pursue when looking to reverse both visible and nonvisible summer sun damage. Our top three recommended treatments to reverse summer sun damage include:

1. Broadband Light Therapy

Broadband light therapy is a gentle laser that works by heating the upper layers of your skin. The heat, which gets absorbed by the targeted areas, stimulates your skin cells to regenerate and restore your skin’s natural beauty. Results can be seen with clearer, smoother, more vibrant, and younger looking skin.

2. RF Microneedling

This state-of-the-art procedure joins radiofrequency and microneedling to restore your skin’s health by administering heat in conjunction with controlled micro-injuries. With RF microneedling by Vivace, your skin texture improves while cellular turnover increases. Skin tone becomes more balanced while fine lines and wrinkles are targeted by the device.

3. Chemical Peels

Belladerm MedSpa offers a variety of chemical peels that whip your skin back into shape. During this treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the affected areas for chemical exfoliation. Consequently, this process reveals new, regenerated skin that is smoother and less wrinkled. Chemical peels are an ideal treatment for a host of skin problems including acne, discolorations, fine lines, and wrinkles.

Microneedling is one of the most popular treatments for tackling skin concerns such as skin laxity, sun damage, fine lines, and facial scarring. The skin-care experts at Belladerm MedSpa are here to answer the question: RF microneedling vs. microneedling – What’s the difference? Keep reading.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling with SkinPen® is one of many professional services offered at Belladerm MedSpa. This treatment stimulates collagen production and actives our natural healing process. SkinPen is a handheld device that contains twelve needles that make microchannels on the treated area. This action triggers an immune response to regenerate new tissue. Without the help of heat or chemicals, microneedling successfully delivers dramatic results by remodeling dermal tissue in 3 to 6 treatments that are spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart.

Some of the most common skin concerns treated with Microneedling include:

• Acne-scarring
• Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
• Hyper and Hypopigmentation
• Fine Lines and Wrinkles

What is RF Microneedling?

Similarly to regular microneedling, RF (Radio Frequency) microneedling with Vivace® is a next-level treatment that adds radio frequency energy to the already beneficial service. Additionally, the RF device utilizes 36 gold-tipped needles that get precisely inserted into the skin. Synergistically applying evenly distributed heat, the Vivace device maximizes aesthetic results.

Some of the most common skin concerns treated with RF Microneedling include:

• Scars
• Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
• Hyper and Hypopigmentation
• Melasma
• Fine Lines and Wrinkles
• Skin-laxity and Tightening

RF microneedling remodels dermal tissue with 3 to 6 treatments spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart. This innovative anti-aging treatment helps us to look our best at any age by lessening uneven skin tone, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and battling skin laxity by stimulating collagen growth. With Belladerm MedSpa’s latest offering, RF microneedling is a winning combination that delivers dramatic results.

Which Treatment Should I Get?

While traditional microneedling is a great option for someone looking for an introduction to the microneedling world, RF microneedling further amplifies the process with radio frequency for added skin tightening and anti-aging benefits. Nevertheless, we always recommend scheduling a complimentary consultation with one of our skin-care experts to determine candidacy for the treatment you are considering.
