3 Skin Treatments to Keep You Looking Fresh This Summer!

Summertime and the living’s easy, right? Well, your skin may not agree. While we may love the long,, lazy days of summer, the combination of heat, sun and humidity can take a toll on our skin. Fortunately, there are ways to protect, restore and enhance the way our skin looks and feels as the mercury climbs. While the golden rules of skincare, such as using quality products, protecting yourself from direct sunlight, and using sunscreen, always apply, sometimes they might not be enough to maintain our healthy glow. What is it about summertime that can make our otherwise healthy, glowing skin fall flat or, even worse, stand up and demand extra attention and TLC? Let’s explore how summertime affects our skin and what we can do to achieve and maintain a radiant and glowing complexion all summer long.

The skincare experts at Faces PLLC in Jackson, MS, are here to help answer all your questions regarding skin. They also offer three skincare treatments to enhance your skin’s natural radiance and help keep you looking fresh all summer long. Keep reading to explore these treatments and gain a deeper understanding of how our Mississippi climate affects your skin.

How the Weather Affects Our Skin

At Faces PLLC, we are huge advocates for regular skincare routines. However, if you’ve noticed your products aren’t doing the same job they did a month or two ago, it could be a skin issue and not a product issue.

Below are just a few ways summer can affect your skin and the effectiveness of your skincare products.

Increased Oil Production—During the heat of summer, our sebaceous glands can produce an abundance of oil, which is the leading cause of stubborn breakouts.

UV Rays—Excessive and unprotected exposure to UV rays can lead to irregular pigmentation and other signs of premature aging in the skin, such as wrinkles and fine lines. The sun, while warm and wonderful for all our favorite outdoor summer activities, breaks down our skin’s production of collagen and elastin at a faster rate, leading to our least favorite skin problem: aging!

Swimming—A cool dip in a swimming pool is a great way to cool off, but chlorinated and saltwater pools strip the skin of its natural, hydrating oils, leading to excessive dryness and lackluster skin.

Warm Weather— As the temperature rises in the Jackson Metro area, we begin to spend more time outside, which can result in increased water loss, dehydration, and dry, itchy, wrinkled, and dull-looking skin.

3 Skincare Treatments to Keep Your Skin Looking Fresh

Before recommending a skincare treatment, we always start with a thorough evaluation of your skin to pinpoint exactly what it may need. Read on to explore three of our favorite skincare treatments we offer at Faces PLLC. These treatments target various skin concerns that patients experience throughout the summer and can help keep your complexion clear and radiant, no matter the temps!

HydraFacial

The HydraFacial is an in-office, non-invasive, four-step skincare treatment that aims to improve the appearance and vitality of your skin. Due to its customizable nature, it’s well-suited for most skin types and tones and produces long-term skin health benefits. The four steps of a HydraFacial include cleansing, peeling, extraction, and fusion. With these combined steps, the HydraFacial can remove whiteheads, blackheads, and debris that causes breakouts, as well as improve the appearance of dull, dry, and discolored skin. You’ll love the way your skin looks and feels immediately after your treatment, and the long-term effects will help keep you glowing all summer.

Diamond Glow

Our popular Diamond Glow dermal infusion system is a process that nourishes the skin and promotes the regeneration of new healthy skin cells while simultaneously eliminating dirt or residue that may be clogging pores or adhering to the skin. This innovative technology involves a 3-in-1 process where a handheld device exfoliates, extracts, and infuses the skin with a professional-grade serum. After a Diamond Glow facial at Faces PLLC, you’ll have the confidence to go barefaced this summer and soak in the compliments regarding your radiant glow!

Comprehensive Facial

At Faces PLLC, we invite you to unwind and enjoy a thorough facial that our amazing team of aestheticians has created just for you. Every comprehensive facial starts with a dermaplaning session to prepare your skin for treatment. During a comprehensive facial, each treatment is customized according to the specific needs of each guest. We use only top-quality skincare products throughout the entire cleansing, exfoliating, and treatment segments of the facial. Not only will your skin be infused with the best medical-grade products, but you’ll also feel relaxed and ready to embrace all your summer plans.
