A Smarter Way to Sun

Summer skin care advice from Skiin Anti-Aging Lounge owner Chris Zajdel

What is the most common skin concern you see after summer?

The main one we see is pigmentation caused by sun exposure. Changes in seasons can also affect skin oil production so many people may experience increased dryness as they transition in and out of the summer months.

What are your favorite simple ways to keep skin looking refreshed during summer?

You should always protect your skin with an SPF of at least 40. Don’t forget areas like your ears and along the hairline—people often just lightly pat sunscreen on or use sprays without applying enough for proper coverage. I also recommend using hyaluronic acid to help keep skin hydrated throughout the summer months.

What are some effective treatments for sunspots, uneven skin tone, or sun-related aging?

One of the gold-standard treatments is IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light therapy. It’s recommended by physicians to help target pigmentation and sunspots. IPL can also help restore a more balanced, refreshed complexion overall.

I also recommend exfoliation treatments, commonly known as chemical peels, to help brighten and renew the skin. Brightening peel treatments can improve skin tone, texture, and overall radiance. Factor Five is one treatment series Skiin Anti-Aging Lounge offers that we’ve seen deliver impressive brightening and lightening results for many patients.

When is the best time of year to start skin care treatments?

Any time of year is a great time to start caring for your skin. The most important thing is working with a trusted skin health professional who can guide you with treatments and products tailored to your skin’s needs. Consistency and patience are key. With a personalized, year-round approach, you can keep your skin healthy, balanced, and refreshed through every season.
