Cool temperatures and shorter days leave us all spending more time indoors during the winter months.
With limited exposure to the sun’s UV rays, the winter season offers the perfect opportunity to treat your skin to a rejuvenating treatment (or a few) !
Wondering where to start ? We have put together our favourite treatments to try this winter for you !
Fractional Laser Resurfacing
Fractional laser resurfacing is a fundamental treatment in the field of aesthetic medicine to address sun damage, improve skin texture, minimize fine lines, and reduce pigmentation. At Dermapure, we offer a variety of ablative and non-ablative fractional laser treatment options to eliminate old or damaged skin cells and reveal new, radiant-looking skin.
Why we love it for winter : Fractional lasers are based on the principle of creating deep micro ablation zones in the skin (multiple microscopic perforations in the dermis) while leaving the surrounding skin intact in order to stimulate the natural skin healing process. As a result, your skin will be sensitive when you leave the clinic, and it will be important to avoid harsh UV rays in the days that follow your treatment.
Photorejuvenation
Photorejuvenation treatments with intense pulsed light technology platforms help correct complexion imperfections such as pigment spots caused or heightened by exposure to sunlight as well as to diminish the appearance of certain vascular problems such as couperosis and rosacea.
Why we love it for winter : Intense pulsed light technology seeks out colour contrasts beneath the skin to dry out and eliminate tiny blood vessels and visible brown or red spots. As a result, it is safest and most effective to receive this treatment when your skin has no tan and the colour contrast beneath the skin surface is the strongest.
Skin Tightening
At Dermapure, we offer a variety of skin tightening treatments to create a natural lifting and firming effect to the skin on the face and body. These treatments also significantly slow the signs of skin-aging by preventing the body’s natural collagen degradation process.
Why we love it for winter : With respect to skin tightening treatments, your results will continue to improve for up to 6 months following the procedure. By completing treatment now, you will be ready to show off your maximum results in time for summer !
