Embrace Summer Skin: Top Treatments for Sun Damage

May 5, 2025

As the summer sun graces the Pacific Northwest, Seattle inhabitants flock to parks, beaches, and mountain trails to soak in the natural beauty. However, while enjoying these sunny delights, our skin bears the brunt of UV exposure. Sun damage is a common concern that can affect skin health and aesthetics. At Shmily Aesthetics, we are committed to helping you restore and maintain your skin’s vitality. Let’s explore the best treatments to embrace summer skin and treat sun-related woes.


Understanding Sun Damage


Before diving into treatments, it’s essential to understand sun damage. Overexposure to the sun’s UV rays can lead to a range of skin concerns, including:


- Hyperpigmentation

- Sunspots and age spots

- Fine lines and wrinkles

- Dryness and premature aging

- Collagen breakdown


Importance of Protecting Your Skin


Preventive measures are key to reducing sun damage. Make SPF your best friend, wear protective clothing, and seek shade during peak hours. But for those times when prevention isn’t enough, targeted treatments at Shmily Aesthetics can effectively address these concerns.


1. IPL Therapy: Intense Pulsed Light for Sun Damage


Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is a versatile treatment that uses light to target pigments in the skin. At Shmily Aesthetics, our state-of-the-art IPL systems are tailored to treat a variety of skin concerns, including sunspots and hyperpigmentation. 


- How IPL Works: IPL emits multiple wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin to break down excess melanin, reducing dark spots.

- The Experience: A non-invasive, quick, and virtually painless procedure with little downtime.

- Benefits: Improves skin tone, reduces red and brown spots, and enhances overall complexion.


2. Aerolase Neo Elite: A Game-Changer for Skin Rejuvenation


For those seeking an advanced laser treatment, Aerolase Neo Elite offers a unique solution. This technology uses a 650-microsecond laser pulse to rejuvenate skin affected by sun damage.


- How Aerolase Works: The laser targets and breaks down melanin, stimulating collagen production without damaging the skin surface.

- The Experience: Gentle and comfortable treatment suitable for all skin types.

- Benefits: Clears pigmentation, reduces redness, improves texture, and supports skin rejuvenation.


3. Plasmage: Harnessing Plasma Energy for Skin Tightening


Harness the power of Plasmage, a non-surgical method that utilizes plasma energy to rejuvenate and tighten the skin. It’s perfect for addressing delicate areas like around the eyes, where sun damage often shows first.


- How Plasmage Works: Creates micro-injuries in the skin, promoting natural healing and collagen production.

- The Experience: Quick recovery time with immediate visible results.

- Benefits: Reduces fine lines, tightens loose skin, and improves overall skin appearance.


4. PRF Therapy: Natural Regeneration for Sun-Damaged Skin


Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) therapy is an innovative approach that leverages the body’s natural regenerative abilities to heal and restore skin affected by sun harm.


- How PRF Works: Uses your blood’s natural platelets and growth factors to stimulate collagen and tissue repair.

- The Experience: Natural, minimally invasive, and highly effective.

- Benefits: Promotes a youthful glow, enhances skin texture, and reduces age spots.


5. Biostimulators: Collagen Boosting for Long-Term Results


Shmily Aesthetics offers biostimulators like Sculptra and Radiesse to naturally enhance collagen production.


- How Biostimulators Work: Gradual improvement as micro-particles stimulate collagen over time.

- The Experience: Gradual and subtle transformation with long-lasting results.

- Benefits: Restores volume, reduces wrinkles, and enhances skin firmness.


Summer Skin Care Tips


While these treatments effectively address sun damage, a comprehensive skincare routine tailored for summer is vital to maintain results.


- Daily SPF: Keep wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen every day.

- Hydration: Keep your skin hydrated with a good moisturizer and drink plenty of water.

- Diet: Antioxidant-rich foods can support skin health by neutralizing free radicals.
