Why Skin Treatments Shouldn’t Stop in the Summer

When the sun’s out and the schedules are packed with travel and lake days, skincare routines often take a back seat. But here’s the truth: your skin doesn’t stop aging (or breaking out) in the summer—so your treatments shouldn’t stop either.

At Ashley McFarland Aesthetics, we’re all about smart, seasonal skincare. And yes, you can (and should) continue professional treatments through the warmer months. Two of our go-to summer-safe options? Microneedling and Advalight Laser Therapy. Individually, they’re powerful. Together, they’re a game-changing combo.

☀️ Why You Should Treat Your Skin in the Summer

  • Summer brings sun exposure, clogged pores, and inflammation

  • Consistency = results (don’t pause progress!)

  • Safe, non-invasive treatments do exist for warmer weather

  • You can still protect your skin and heal—hello SPF and post-care!

✨ Microneedling

Microneedling uses tiny, controlled micro-injuries to kickstart collagen and elastin production, our skin’s natural firming and healing superstars.

Benefits of Microneedling:

  • Smooths fine lines and wrinkles

  • Minimizes pores

  • Reduces acne scars

  • Improves overall tone and texture

  • Gives that post-treatment ✨glow✨

Why it’s summer-friendly:
There’s minimal downtime, and with proper sun protection, microneedling can be done year-round, even in summer.

🔴 Advalight Laser Treatment

The Advalight laser is a no-downtime, multi-benefit treatment that targets redness, acne, pigment, and more—all in one session.

Benefits of Advalight:

  • Calms inflammation and redness (think: rosacea, acne, or flushing)

  • Destroys acne-causing bacteria

  • Fades sun spots and pigment

  • Improves skin tone without damaging the surface

Why it’s summer-friendly:
This laser has virtually zero downtime and doesn’t ablate the skin, making it safe and effective even with a sunny forecast.

🌟 Why We Love Them Together

Microneedling + Advalight is what we call a summer power couple. Here’s why:

  • Microneedling triggers collagen; Advalight calms inflammation

  • You get both skin-smoothing and skin-clearing results

  • Together, they speed up healing and amplify glow

  • Great for acne-prone, red, or textured skin

  • You’ll look refreshed without the need for heavy makeup or filters

Bottom line?
Don’t ghost your skin this summer. Keep up your treatments, choose smart, and let us help you create your best skin ever—no matter the season.
