We certainly don’t want to presume to tell you that you need a laser or chemical peel treatment, but if you’re thinking about choosingย either, we collected three reasons why the New Year is a particularlyย good time to follow-up.
1. Laser treatments and chemical peels are both effective ways toย rejuvenate your appearance and give rapid results. Many peopleย start the New Year off by making resolutions to eat a healthier diet or exercise more. It can be toughย to keep to these types of long-term plans when you don’t necessarilyย see any benefits for a while. However, the feeling of well-being and confidence from getting either laser treatments or chemical peels can give you theย motivation to carry on and stick to your resolutions.
2.ย It’s strongly recommended to avoid strong sunlight before, during,ย and especially after laser treatments and chemical peels, while yourย skin heals, and any inflammation goes down. Winter time is thereforeย the ideal time of year to plan these treatments. During winter, the damaging UVย rays are weaker, there are fewer hours of sunlight in theย day, and we typically stay indoors for longer periods. We also wearย more clothing in the winter, which in turn provides moreย protection. These factors, taken together, can be especially helpfulย when you have a series of treatments, and you may need to avoidย direct sunshine over an extended period. Several skin conditions, such as hyperpigmentation, are exacerbatedย during the summer months. Winter is a perfect time to take care ofย problems that are caused by excess sun exposure.
3. Dry skin typically is worse during the winter months. Getting aย chemical peel in the winter helps to remove the dead skin layers,ย which in turn increases your skin’s ability to absorb winter skinย care products such as moisturizers. Rather than disrupting your skinย care routine, a chemical peel can actually enhance your ability toย treat dry skin.

Perhaps the best argument is this: take good care of your complexionย during the cooler months and you’ll be better prepared to enjoy theย sun by the time the warmer summer months come along. ย In moderation, of course!
