Summer Skin & UV Protection

It’s that time of year again! Summer is upon us, so as you’re soaking up the sun rays and enjoying vacation time, it is a must to take special care of your skin. The summer sun can do a number on the skin including damage such as sunburns, hyper pigmentation, and the dreaded PREMATURE AGING!!!  Make sure you protect yourself and preserve your skin for another year! We all love that sun kissed glow so consider a spray tan (From one of our partners) instead of laying out in the sun baking the surface of your skin. Now we all know we are not going to stay inside this summer season so make sure to you wear sunscreen DAILY! Using a higher SPF in addition to your normal skincare routine will help protect those nasty UVA (Aging) and UVB (burning) rays. Sunscreen is your number one first line of defense in the anti-aging war and is vital in protecting the skin. At the DermaCenter we carry a few different options for your sunscreen needs, for all skin types from oily, acne or just aging.

In addition to using a higher SPF you may also switch out the heavier moisturizers for something lighter and water based to help combat oily skin on hot and humid days. Environ’s AVST moisturizer is a great summer moisturizer being that it is light, water based and has Vitamin A which is crucial protecting the skin. Also adding in a “treatment” product in the evening is huge in the summer months since the sun is damaging the outer layers throughout the day. Using something with a higher level of Vitamins and Peptides is beyond beneficial in helping to restore the skins surface.  Environ’s C-Quence is a boost of Vitamin A, C and additional peptides to help the skin look younger and more refreshed.

Through the month of June 2016, at the DermaCenter, we are offering Skin Tightening and Ematrix treatments at a discounted price. Skin Tightening is a treatment that uses Radiofrequency to stimulate collagen below the surface and give you an instant tightening effect. This treatment is known as the lunchtime facelift, have a big event coming up set up an appointment feel instantly tighter and more firm. EMatrix is a treatment that also uses Radio Frequency but actually stimulated Collagen but putting “micro-traumas” into the Dermal tissue, creating cell turnover and regeneration. This treatment is wonderful for fine lines, wrinkles and acne scarring. A combination of these two treatments results in a more youthful looking appearance that will last,
