How to Prep Your Skin for Summer:

The Best Spring Treatments for a Glowing Complexion

As the seasons change, so do the needs of your skin. Spring is the perfect time to refresh and rejuvenate your complexion in preparation for summer’s heat, humidity, and sun exposure. The cooler, transitional weather provides an ideal window for treatments that enhance your skin’s resilience and radiance. At Bloom MedAesthetics, we specialize in cutting-edge aesthetic treatments that help you achieve your best summer glow.

Here’s your guide to prepping your skin this spring!

1. Focus on Skin Renewal: Exfoliate & Hydrate

Winter often leaves skin dry, dull, and congested. A deep refresh in the spring helps remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and stimulate collagen production.

Best Spring Treatments for Renewal:

  • Chemical Peels – Light to medium-depth peels (like Obagi Revivify, VI Peel or TCA peels) exfoliate the skin, improve texture, and fade pigmentation, setting the stage for a radiant summer glow.
  • Bela MD Facial – A gentle, multi-step facial that exfoliates with microdermabrasion, deeply cleanses, and hydrates with nourishing serums. bCalm, bClear, bBright and bEven serums can be customized to your skin to create the perfect medical grade facial. It’s perfect for all skin types and can be combined with red light therapy to decrease redness and support collagen stimulation. This is the most relaxing experience. Learn more about the benefits of the Bela MD Facial.
  • Microneedling with PRP or exosomes – Also known as the “vampire facial,” this treatment boosts collagen, evens skin tone and texture, helps to remodel acne and surgical scars and enhances elasticity. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) harnesses growth factors in your own blood and can be used to enhance the rejuvenating collagen stimulation during microneedling. Spring is an excellent time to do this before increased sun exposure.
  • Radiofrequency Microneedling (RFMN) – The next level in skin rejuvenation and tightening. This treatment combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency to treat the dermis in microcolumns of energy, forcing collagen production and skin tightening. Expect about 24 hours of downtime and 1 week out of the sun. Combining this treatment with Age Zero exosomes or PRP creates a powerful 1-2 punch for fine lines, acne scars and lax skin. Even the eyelids can be treated with this technology!

2. Target Sun Damage & Pigmentation

Hyperpigmentation from past sun exposure can become more pronounced in the summer. Spring is the perfect time to treat discoloration before UV rays get stronger.

Best Treatments for Pigmentation:

  • IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Therapy – Targets sunspots, freckles, and redness, creating a more even complexion.
  • Medical-Grade Skincare with Brightening Agents – Products containing hydroquinone, retinol, vitamin C, niacinamide, and tranexamic acid help fade dark spots and prevent new ones from forming. Consult one of our Bloom providers to see which products are best suited for your skin.

3. Strengthen & Protect Your Skin Barrier

Healthy, hydrated skin is more resistant to sun damage and premature aging. Strengthening your skin barrier in the spring helps it better handle summer stressors.

How to Strengthen Your Skin:

  • Customized Medical-Grade Facials – Nourishing treatments that infuse antioxidants and peptides for barrier repair.
  • Hyaluronic Acid & Peptide Serums – These keep the skin plump and hydrated without clogging pores.
  • Daily SPF (Even on Cloudy Days!) – Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every day, and consider a tinted mineral sunscreen for adequate daily protection.

4. Reduce Unwanted Hair Before Swimsuit Season

Spring is the ideal time to start laser hair removal treatments since multiple sessions are needed for the best results. By starting in early spring, you’ll have smoother skin just in time for summer.

  • Laser Hair Removal – Targets the hair follicle to reduce growth permanently. This process reduces hair by approximately 20% with each treatment and is most popular for face, underarms, back, bikini and legs.Multiple treatments are needed to see maximum results at 1 month apart, so let’s get started!  Call the Bloom office at (814) 374-3400 or book a consultation online at BloomMedA.com to see if you’re a candidate.
