Winter is creeping up, and with it comes concerns about how to keep your skin glowing despite the harsh, dry weather. Like a bear preparing for hibernation, your skin also needs to gear up for the waning sun and cold wind. Looking at the range of med spa treatments offered by Dr. Jack Peterson, let’s dive into how you can prime your skin for winter.
Why Prepare your Skin for Winter?
The first question you might ask is, why go through this prep? This is important because the drop in temperature and humidity levels during winter can make your skin dry, causing flaking, and in severe cases, can lead to skin cracking and eczema. Not only is this uncomfortable, but it can also lead to other skin issues and overall discomfort. That’s where Dr. Jack Peterson’s med spa treatments come in.
Fights Dryness: EndyMed Intensif Applicator
It’s crucial to choose a treatment that specifically targets your skin’s dryness during winter. The EndyMed Intensif Applicator is ideal for this. It uses a microneedling technology coupled with radiofrequency heat, which stimulates collagen production and restores your skin’s elasticity and strength. After several treatments, you’ll notice that your skin is tighter, smoother, and importantly, less susceptible to dryness and cracking in those chilly winds.
Radiant Skin: Chemical Peel
Pre-Winter Deep Clean
A chemical peel can offer your skin a deep cleanse just before winter seeps in. It sheds the upper layer of your skin, effectively removing dead skin cells, reducing the appearance of age spots, freckles, and irregular skin pigmentation, and promoting new skin cell growth. A chemical peel is primarily a facial treatment but can be used on other parts of the body. It leaves your skin fresh, rejuvenated, and ready to face any cold snap winter has to offer.
Minimize Wrinkles: Radiofrequency-Assisted Facial Contouring (FaceTite)
Winter weather can sometimes exacerbate the appearance of those fine lines and wrinkles that we would rather forget about. Radiofrequency-Assisted Facial Contouring (FaceTite) is a non-surgical procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin and reduce fat. It stimulates collagen production, leading to improved skin structure and lessened wrinkles. This process, coupled with a good winter skincare regimen, can help you keep your skin firm and fresh all winter long.
Frozen C Cryotherapy: A Cool Blast in Winter
Ironically, the very thing we seem to be avoiding (cold temperatures) is exactly what Frozen C Cryotherapy uses to revitalize your skin. During this treatment, liquid nitrogen is applied to the face in a spray or spreading motion, creating an immediate tightening effect. Toxins are expelled as the blood vessels contract and then dilate again after the skin gets contact with normal temperatures. This aids in increased oxygen supply, nutrient supply, and skin regeneration – leaving your skin glowing, even in the dreariest parts of winter.
General Winter Skin Care Tips
Apart from these regular treatments at Dr. Jack Peterson’s, caring for your skin at home is also crucial. This includes keeping your skin hydrated, avoiding hot showers, reducing the exposure of your skin to harsh winds, and more. Good skin care and timely med spa treatments can help you prepare and maintain your skin this winter, making it glow throughout the season.
With winter around the corner, now is the perfect time to arm yourself against the harsh climate. So, are you ready to unlock the secret to pristine winter skin with these fantastic med spa treatments?
