Long summer days are good for the soul—but often hard on the skin. Even with SPF and good intentions, months of sun exposure, heat, and humidity can leave your complexion feeling dull, dry, and uneven. At Azalea Med Spa, we offer advanced treatments that go beyond the surface to help you repair sun damage, restore radiance, and step into fall with healthy, glowing skin.

Here’s how to reset your skin at the end of summer—with proven treatments designed to correct damage and support long-term skin health.

How Sun Damage Shows Up on the Skin

Sun damage isn’t always immediate. Over time, UV exposure breaks down collagen,triggers pigmentation, and compromises the skin barrier. Common signs of sun-damaged skin include:

• Rough texture or dull tone
• Dark spots, freckles, or hyperpigmentation
• Fine lines and premature wrinkles
• Dehydration and inflammation

While daily SPF and proper skincare play a role in prevention, professional treatments are often needed to correct deeper damage.

1. Microneedling

Rebuild Collagen + Smooth Texture

Microneedling is one of our most effective treatments for reversing sun damage. By creating controlled micro-injuries, this treatment stimulates your skin’s natural healing process—boosting collagen production and improving tone, texture, and firmness.

Microneedling is especially effective for:

• Fine lines caused by UV damage
• Uneven skin texture
• Mild pigmentation

Bonus: Pair with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) to accelerate healing and enhance your results naturally.

2. Chemical Peels

Brighten + Resurface Sun-Damaged Skin

If your skin feels rough or looks uneven after summer, a chemical peel can help restore clarity and smoothness. By gently exfoliating the top layers of skin, peels help fade dark spots, stimulate cell turnover, and reveal a fresh, renewed complexion.

At Azalea, we customize your peel strength and formulation based on your skin goals and sensitivity.

Great for:

• Melasma or sun spots
• Dull, tired skin
• Smoothing texture and tone

Peel season officially begins in fall—but late summer is the perfect time to prep your skin and start gently.

3. Hydrafacial®

Deep Clean + Rehydrate

After months of sweat, sunscreen, and environmental buildup, your skin craves a reset. The Hydrafacial is a non-invasive, results-driven treatment that combines deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, and intense hydration—all in one session.

This treatment is ideal for end-of-summer skin that feels:

• Congested or dehydrated
• Dull or irritated
• In need of a glow without downtime

Add on a brightening booster or LED light therapy to target pigmentation and redness from sun exposure.

4. Medical-Grade Skincare

Support Results at Home

Professional treatments work best when paired with a targeted at-home routine. We recommend incorporating products that calm inflammation, correct pigment, and restore the skin barrier—especially after sun exposure.

Look for:

• Vitamin C serums to brighten and defend
• Retinol to support cell turnover
• Hyaluronic acid for deep hydration
• Soothing cleansers and SPF to maintain results
