Summer can be a bit of a tricky time when it comes to skin. On the one hand, with longer sunlight hours, you might want to protect your skin more than ever from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays.
On the other hand, summer in Boca Raton, Florida, means showing more skin. Whether you swap pants for shorts or you’re fully leaning into swimsuit season, this is a time of year when you want your skin to look its best.
That includes the skin on your face. No matter your chosen summer attire, people see this part of your body. That’s why the team at Plastic Surgery Specialists of Boca Raton offers skin treatments designed to help you glow all summer long.
Rafael C. Cabrera, MD, FACS, and our medical esthetician, Loredana Jurist, CME, LE, PMUA, have multiple ways to help you move toward your skin goals this summer. Here are a few advanced medical aesthetics skin treatments we offer that actually deliver results for your face and body.
Also called a photofacial, IPL uses light energy to drive change in your skin. It’s particularly helpful in the summer because it works to undo some of the damage caused by past sun exposure, like sun spots.
IPL targets and destroys darkened skin cells. In addition to sun spots, it can address:
IPL can also be helpful for stretch marks. If those marks keep you from enjoying the summer months, talk to our team.
Facials are more than just a way to relax for an hour. They’re a cosmetic tool you can use to improve your skin this summer.
Loredana can tailor a facial to your specific needs. If you’re dealing with excess oil as the summer gets hot and sticky here in Florida, for example, she can perform a clarifying facial. This removes impurities and helps balance the oil of your face.
Or if the summer sun has left your skin feeling dry, she can use a hydrating facial to nourish your face. Similarly, if your skin is irritated from heat or products like sunscreen, she offers a calming facial to soothe your skin and improve its barrier function.
And don’t let the name “facial” fool you. We can apply treatment wherever your skin needs it. Loredana offers back facials, for example. Check out our full menu of your facial options and explore what might be right for you this summer.
