When the weather cools down and cozy sweaters come out, it’s also the perfect time to begin your laser skincare treatments. At CLMD Wellness & Aesthetics in Fairfax, VA, we always encourage patients to start their laser hair removal, IPL photo-facials, and erbium laser rejuvenation in the fall and winter for optimal results—and here’s why.
1. Less Sun Exposure = Safer, Better Results
Laser treatments work by targeting pigment and deep layers of skin. Sun-exposed or tanned skin increases the risk of:
- Hyperpigmentation
- Burns or irritation
- Uneven results
During winter, your skin is naturally lighter and more protected from the sun, making it the ideal season for lasers.
✅ Better safety
✅ More effective results
✅ Lower risk of complications
2. Perfect Timing for Smooth, Summer-Ready Skin
Laser hair removal and skin rejuvenation take multiple sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
Starting now means:
- Hair reduction by spring/summer
- Softer, smoother skin with fewer ingrown hairs
- Glowing, even-toned complexion in time for warm weather
✨ Begin in winter — Reveal your best skin by summer.
3. Easier Post-Treatment Healing in Cooler Weather
After IPL or erbium laser resurfacing, your skin may be more sensitive and require protection.
Winter makes aftercare easier because you naturally:
- Spend less time outdoors
- Avoid direct sun exposure
- Stay cooler, which helps calm the skin
This is especially helpful for erbium laser recovery, where skin needs gentle handling and hydration.
4. Treat Skin Damage From Summer
Winter is the best season to reverse the effects of summer sun exposure, including:
- Pigmentation & sunspots
- Fine lines & wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Broken capillaries & redness
IPL and laser resurfacing treatments refresh and renew damaged skin, giving you a brighter, more youthful complexion.
5. Boost Skin With IPL + Winter Skincare
IPL winter skincare routines pair beautifully with laser treatments. Winter is an opportunity to nourish and rebuild:
- Hydrating serums
- Medical-grade moisturizers
- SPF (yes, daily even in winter!)
- Hydrafacial or PRP support treatments
Maximize your winter glow and maintain radiant skin year-round.
