There’s something about the change in seasons that makes us want a refresh, new routines, cozy layers, and even a skin reset. Fall is the perfect time to book skin treatments that don’t always fit into your summer schedule. With cooler weather and less sun exposure, your skin can better tolerate deeper treatments that repair and rejuvenate. Microneedling and chemical peels are two aesthetic treatments that we recommend throughout the fall and up until the end of spring to give your skin a healthy, youthful glow.
Is Microneedling Worth It?
Microneedling is absolutely worth it if you want smoother, firmer, more radiant skin. This treatment uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries that boost your body's natural healing process. Over time, this helps reduce discoloration and improve overall skin texture.
Fall is the perfect time for microneedling because your skin won’t be competing with the intense summer sun. Treatments like microneedling make your skin temporarily more sensitive to UV exposure, so cooler months reduce the risk of sun-related irritation and maximize results. Plus, starting in the fall gives you time to heal and reveal smoother, refreshed skin in time for the holidays.
What is Microneedling Good For?
The real magic happens during the healing process following a microneedling treatment. The micro-injuries help your cells ramp up collagen and elastin production, both essential for keeping skin firm with a healthy and youthful appearance. It’s great for:
- Reducing fine lines and wrinkles
- Fading acne scars
- Evening out skin tone and texture
- Shrinking the look of pores
How Often Can You Do Microneedling?
While you’ll start to notice improvements in your skin in as little as 2-3 weeks, microneedling is best done in a series. Most people book follow-up appointments every 3-6 months to keep their results fresh and their skin looking and feeling healthy all year long.
What Does a Chemical Peel Do?
Chemical peels are another favorite fall skin treatment. Since chemical peels make your skin more sensitive to UV rays while it heals, the cooler months offer the perfect window to recover with less risk of skin damage.
Peels use an acidic solution to gently remove the top layer of skin, clearing imperfections to reveal smoother, improved skin. It's basically an advanced exfoliant that promotes cell turnover, leaving you with fresh, healthy skin. Similar to microneedling, chemical peels kickstart your skin’s natural healing process and encourage collagen production to smooth and even skin tone.
What Are Chemical Peels Good For?
Peels can be customized to treat a wide range of concerns, making them one of the most versatile aesthetic treatments. Some of the biggest benefits include:
- Brightening dull skin
- Smoothing fine lines
- Fading dark spots
- Clearing breakouts
- Refining skin texture
How Long Does a Chemical Peel Last?
You can start to see results in as little as 2 weeks, and it typically lasts 6 months. Chemical peels are perfect for anyone who wants to achieve radiant, long-lasting results. Your provider will create a treatment plan to address your specific needs and advise follow-up appointments if needed to maintain results.
