Warmer weather has finally arrived in the Queen City, which means it’s time to shed the bulky sweaters and heavy coats. But if you aren’t ready for your big springtime reveal, you’re not alone.
Dry, cold winter air wreaks havoc on the skin, leaving it dull, irritated, and prone to acne¹. Dark circles under the eyes are also more prominent in the cooler months, likely due to lower Vitamin D levels². We all tend to pack on some weight, too³. Put together, these factors can negatively impact your self-confidence going into springtime.
Luckily, we offer a range of rejuvenating therapies at Ageless Remedies SouthPark Med Spa and Laser Center in Charlotte. From revitalizing microdermabrasion facials to fat reduction therapies, these safe, effective, and minimally invasive interventions will help you look and feel your very best this spring.
Facial Treatments
A facial can rehydrate and nourish your skin after the dry winter months, affording a brighter, more youthful complexion. Some of the facial treatments administered by our skilled aestheticians include:
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure in which a specialized device gently exfoliates the skin. This process removes any dead skin cells that may have built up during the colder months, giving you a radiant glow. Microdermabrasion also stimulates the production of collagen, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles that may have become more noticeable during winter.
Chemical Peels
Spending more time indoors during the winter, particularly in heated environments, can dehydrate the skin and contribute to a dull complexion. Chemical peels rejuvenate the skin by removing its damaged outer layers. This exfoliation process also helps unclog pores and reduce oil production, preventing spring breakouts.
HydraFacial MD
If you want to revitalize your skin this spring, consider receiving a HydraFacial MD treatment. Painless and non-invasive, this therapy combines the exfoliating power of microdermabrasion with a gentle, non-irritating chemical peel. Your aesthetician will also apply a serum made from hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and peptides to hydrate your skin and keep it protected in the sunny months ahead.
Cosmetic Dermal Fillers
Cold weather and dry air exacerbate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making you look older than you actually are. Cosmetic dermal fillers are injectable treatments that smooth facial creases and folds, giving you fresh, youthful-looking skin. We recommend these fillers during the spring:
Bellafill
Bellafill is an FDA-approved cosmetic filler composed of collagen gel and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microspheres. The collagen gel provides immediate volume, while the PMMA microspheres stimulate your body’s natural collagen production for lift and definition that lasts five years. As a result, you will look younger and more vibrant for many springs to come.
Juvederm
If wintertime has left you looking tired and fatigued, Juvederm can help. Approved by the FDA, Juvederm is a cosmetic injectable made with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that keeps the skin hydrated, plump, and supple. When administered by a medical provider, this treatment can smooth unwanted wrinkles and restore facial volume and cheek fullness.
Restylane
Restylane is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, particularly those around the eyes, mouth, and face. Specific Restylane formulations can also provide natural-looking lip augmentation, giving your lips a kissable suppleness.
Botox
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a safe, FDA-approved treatment that effectively targets dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements such as smiling, frowning, laughing, squinting, and raising your eyebrows. Botox works by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for these movements, giving you smoother, more youthful-looking skin just in time for spring.
Laser Hair Removal
If the thought of shaving and waxing unwanted body hair all spring feels daunting, consider laser hair removal. This treatment works by damaging the hair follicle, inhibiting or delaying future hair growth. According to dermatological research, laser hair removal is the most effective means of removing unwanted body hair⁴.
Since laser hair removal requires multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart, it’s best to start treatments well before summer. Beginning sessions in the spring gives you enough time to complete the recommended series of treatments before swimsuit season.
Body Sculpting and Fat Reduction
We all tend to move less and eat more during the colder months. As a result, the average person packs on five to seven pounds³. This weight gain can affect your self-confidence, especially as the weather warms up.
Fortunately, we offer several effective, non-surgical fat-reduction treatments at Ageless Remedies. Two of the best body sculpting interventions to receive in the springtime include:
SculpSure Body Contouring
SculpSure is an FDA-approved body contouring treatment designed to reduce stubborn fat in areas such as the abdomen, love handles, thighs, and under the chin. This treatment uses laser technology to target and destroy fat cells beneath the skin. The damaged fat cells are naturally eliminated by the body over time.
Since it takes six weeks to notice results from SculpSure, it’s best to begin treatment in spring. That way, you can be swimsuit-ready by early summer.
EMSCULPT
EMSCULPT is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that focuses on both fat reduction and muscle building. It uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology to stimulate muscle contractions and promote muscle growth while reducing fat in targeted areas.
Though this treatment offers immediate results, optimal toning occurs two to four weeks from the last session.
Anti-Aging Treatments
During winter, the cold, dry air and lowered sunlight levels can increase the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, making you look older than you actually are. To reclaim your youth this spring, we recommend anti-aging treatments such as:
PicoSure Rejuvenation
PicoSure is an anti-aging laser treatment that uses intense bursts of energy to address a range of skin concerns, from stretch marks and unwanted pigmentation to acne scars and sun damage. Fast and effective, PicoSure is a great way to address issues that may be affecting your self-confidence.
Clear + Brilliant
From enlarged pores to uneven complexion, Clear + Brilliant is designed to address many different skin issues. This gentle laser therapy works by targeting the superficial layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production. Since Clear + Brilliant often requires multiple sessions, it’s best to begin treatment in the spring for optimal results come summer.
Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a device containing fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural wound-healing process, leading to increased collagen and elastin production, which helps to rejuvenate and repair the skin.
Fraxel Dual
Fraxel Dual is an advanced form of laser therapy that delivers precise, controlled microthermal zones of energy to the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin renewal. In doing so, Fraxel Dual can reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone, and reduce hyperpigmentation, helping you achieve fresher, younger-looking skin.
Spring Cosmetic Treatments FAQs
What does your skin need in the spring?
In springtime, your skin needs exfoliation and hydration to transition from the cold, dry air of winter to warmer, more humid weather. Dermal fillers, anti-aging treatments, and other therapies can also rejuvenate your skin in the spring.
How soon before summer should I start getting treatments?
The timeline for starting cosmetic treatments depends on the specific intervention. For example, since laser hair removal requires multiple sessions, you will need to begin well before summer. Comparatively, most cosmetic dermal fillers offer immediate results, so you can receive treatment later in the season.
What treatments should be avoided in the spring?
Most cosmetic procedures can be completed year-round. However, you must be mindful of sun exposure after aggressive chemical peels and laser resurfacing treatments.
How can I protect my skin after med spa treatments in the spring?
After receiving skin treatments in the springtime, it’s important that you wear broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, limit your time in direct sunlight, avoid harsh skincare products or exfoliants that could further irritate the skin, and keep your skin hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
