Winter can take a huge toll on your skin. Cold weather, dry air, indoor heating, poor diet, lack of exercise, and holiday stress can all lead to dull, dry skin that makes you look older than you feel. Laser skin rejuvenation can be the perfect addition to your pre-winter skincare routine. MOXI and HALO are two transformative laser facials that give skin a gorgeous glow, reduce sun damage, and improve skin texture and appearance, just in time for the holidays. At Maloney Plastic Surgery, our skin care specialists can help you design the perfect pre-holiday skincare routine that restores your complexion and reverses or prevents winter skin damage. Here’s a deeper look at why now is the perfect time to invest in these procedures.
Get Ready for Holiday Parties
If you’ve noticed unwanted changes in your complexion or appearance, you still have time to revitalize your skin before holiday parties. Planning ahead will make it easy to schedule treatments during breaks from work or school and before travel. Holiday guests will wonder how you managed to look so youthful and refreshed amid all the hustle and bustle of the season.
Counteract Winter Weather and Holiday Stress
By early December, most people are already feeling the stress of the holiday season. Pressing work deadlines or looming finals may mean later hours, causing you to neglect self-care, proper nutrition, and daily exercise. Time spent inside exposes your skin to dry, hot air from heating systems, while time outdoors means frigid, icy cold air. You’ll quickly see the results on your skin, as it becomes paler, drier, and flakier. You might even notice under eye bags or circles, new wrinkles, and a sallow complexion. Laser skin resurfacing can reverse all of that, giving you a restorative winter glow in time for holiday events.
Take Advantage of an Optimal Healing Window
When you schedule a HALO or MOXI laser treatment before the holidays, you give yourself enough time to heal before you need to attend holiday events or travel. You’ll also have time for any needed follow-up appointments or touch-up treatments while still accounting for necessary downtime and recovery. Plus, you’ll enjoy the full results just before you’re scheduled to appear at parties and get-togethers.
Protect Your Skin as it Heals
The sun sets earlier in the winter, and UV intensity is lower. This makes it easier to heal after a laser skin resurfacing treatment. You won’t have to worry as much about complications or inflammation caused by sun exposure. Cooler temperatures can also benefit recovery.
Complement Other Skin Care Treatments
Exfoliation and anti-aging treatments may not be enough to combat winter weather and dull, dry, and flaking skin. Incorporating laser skin rejuvenation treatments into your existing routine can boost the restorative power of other treatments and products, accelerating results and making your skin appear more youthful.
