Prepping Your Skin For The Fall

You’ve had your fun this Summer, now kick your skin into gear for the Fall.

As the vibrant hues of summer gradually give way to the golden embrace of fall, our skin goes through a subtle transformation too. Just as the leaves change, our skin’s needs also shift, making it the perfect time to indulge in more intensive treatments that will leave you glowing and rejuvenated. At Ashley McFarland Aesthetics, we believe that the fall season is a prime opportunity to revitalize your skin and prepare it for the upcoming months. Let’s delve into the transformative powers of Fraxel Laser treatments and a range of Chemical Peels that will have you embracing fall with radiance.

Fraxel Laser with PRP

Fall is a fantastic season to explore more advanced treatments, and at Ashley McFarland Aesthetics, we’ve got just the solution – Fraxel Laser with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). This dynamic duo works wonders for addressing a myriad of concerns including fine lines, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. As summer comes to a close, our skin can benefit immensely from the rejuvenating power of this treatment.

The Fraxel Laser stimulates collagen production and targets damaged skin cells, helping to reveal fresh skin underneath. Paired with Platelet-Rich Plasma, which harnesses the healing properties of your body’s own platelets, the treatment becomes even more potent. We’re proud to offer Fraxel Laser with PRP not only for the face but also for the neck, chest, and hands – areas that are often overlooked but equally deserving of some fall pampering.

Chemical Peels

Transitioning into fall is all about shedding the old to make way for the new – and what better way to do that than with a Chemical Peel? Our arsenal of ZO 3 Step Peel, VI Precision Plus Peel, Vitalize Peel, and Illuminize Peel provides a comprehensive range of options to suit your unique skin requirements.

The ZO 3 Step Peel, curated by renowned dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi, is a powerhouse treatment that exfoliates, brightens, and renews your skin. For those seeking to combat hyperpigmentation, the VI Precision Plus Peel delivers impressive results. It addresses sunspots, acne scars, and age-related spots, unveiling a more even complexion beneath.

The Vitalize Peel strikes the perfect balance – it’s gentle enough for minimal downtime while effectively reducing the signs of aging and enhancing your skin’s texture. If you’re looking to refresh your appearance with little to no downtime, the Illuminize Peel offers a subtle yet noticeable glow.

Summer Skincare Tips & Tricks

Get Ready for the Ultimate Summer Glow: Your Comprehensive Guide to Summer Skincare Tips

Hydration is Key:

Beat the summer heat by staying hydrated. Drinking plenty of water is essential to maintain optimal hydration for your skin. Additionally, use a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer to lock in moisture and prevent water loss, ensuring your skin remains supple and refreshed.

Sun Protection:

Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays is crucial to maintaining a youthful complexion. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, even on cloudy days. Remember to reapply every two hours and seek shade during peak sun hours for maximum protection.

Exfoliation:

Revitalize your skin by incorporating gentle exfoliation into your skincare routine. This process helps remove dead skin cells and promotes cell turnover, revealing a fresh and glowing complexion. Consider using a chemical exfoliant or a gentle physical scrub, but avoid excessive scrubbing that could irritate your skin.

Antioxidant Serums:

Boost your skin’s defense against environmental damage by incorporating antioxidant-rich serums into your routine. Look for products containing vitamins C and E or other potent antioxidants to combat free radicals and promote a radiant complexion.

Lightweight Moisturizers:

Trade heavy creams for lightweight moisturizers during the summer months. Opt for gel-based or oil-free formulas that provide adequate hydration without weighing down your skin. This allows your skin to breathe and helps prevent breakouts.

Skincare Summer Lineup:

Moisturizers:

Choose lightweight moisturizers enriched with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides.

Exfoliators:

Consider incorporating chemical exfoliants such as glycolic acid or salicylic acid-based products.

Serums:

Add an antioxidant serum to your routine for added protection against environmental stressors.

Sunscreen:

Invest in high-quality sunscreen with broad-spectrum protection.
