Every season offers unique opportunities for self-care, but winter stands out as the ideal time to focus on facial rejuvenation. Whether you're considering dermaplaning, a chemical peel, advanced treatments like BBL® HERO™ or FaceTite, or surgical solutions like Dr. Lee Ann Klausner's short-scar facelift or eyelid surgery, here are five reasons why winter is the perfect season to invest in yourself.
#1: Winter Protects Your Skin During Recovery
After facial rejuvenation treatments or surgeries, your skin could be more sensitive to sunlight. Winter’s naturally lower UV levels reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation and help maintain your results, making it the perfect time to optimize your skin rejuvenation efforts.
Dr. Klausner Recommends:
Treatments like chemical peels (VI Peel, TCA 25% Peel, Glycolic Peel, Jessner's Peel) and laser treatments such as Moxi™ and BBL® HERO™, which require post-procedure sun protection
Surgical procedures like the short-scar facelift or eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), where protecting healing skin is essential for optimal results.
#2: Enjoy Comfortable Downtime Indoors
Winter’s cooler months naturally lend themselves to embracing more downtime indoors. Whether recovering from a procedure or simply giving your skin a break, this season allows you to prioritize self-care without missing out on outdoor activities.
Dr. Klausner Recommends:
Minimally invasive treatments like FaceTite and AccuTite, may require some recovery time but deliver stunning, long-lasting results.
Short-scar facelift surgery involves minimal incisions for natural-looking results and a faster recovery timeline compared to traditional facelifts.
#3: Combat the Effects of Holiday Stress on Your Skin
As enjoyable as it is, the winter holiday season can take a toll on your skin. Late nights, indulgent foods, and the stress of end-of-year commitments often leave your complexion tired and dull. Procedures like chemical peels, laser treatments, and eyelid surgery can brighten your skin, reduce signs of fatigue, and leave you feeling refreshed and renewed as you step into the new year.
Dr. Klausner Recommends:
Treatments like our Moxi™ Laser target dullness and restore your skin’s natural radiance after the holiday hustle.
Eyelid surgery, which corrects sagging skin and puffiness, helps to restore a refreshed and alert appearance.
#4: Prepare for a Beautiful Spring Reveal
By addressing skin concerns or enhancing your features now, you give your body time to heal and transform to reveal a radiant, refreshed look by spring. Whether you’re smoothing wrinkles or refining contours, winter treatments align perfectly with springtime unveilings.
Dr. Klausner Recommends:
Transformative treatments like AccuTite or BBL® HERO™ deliver results that continue to improve in the weeks and months following the procedure.
Short-scar facelift surgery, which lifts and tightens sagging skin while maintaining your natural facial expressions, helping you look and feel your best when spring arrives.
How to Make the Most of Your Winter Facial Rejuvenation
Pairing your treatments with the proper post-procedure care is important to maximize your results. Here are our top tips:
- Stay Hydrated: Winter air can be drying, so drink plenty of water and use a high-quality moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated after treatments.
- Use Sunscreen Daily: Even in winter, UV rays can harm healing skin. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect and preserve your results.
- Avoid Harsh Winds: When venturing out, shield your face with a scarf or hat to protect your treated skin from the elements.
- Schedule Maintenance Treatments: Procedures like dermaplaning or BBL® HERO™ can be repeated periodically to maintain your glow throughout the season.
