While you can receive a medical-grade laser treatment at any time of the year, there is an optimal time to have these medical spa treatments performed. That time is during the fall and winter months of the year, specifically when the sun isn’t so bright overhead.

During the summer months our face, neck, and hands are exposed to the sun for hours at a time. While it feels good to get some Vitamin D, too much could lead to damage from the sun’s ultraviolet light, also known as UV light. This can lead to sunburn, wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, freckles, and can add years to your age.

In fact, an estimated 90 percent of skin aging is caused by the sun. Even if you use broad spectrum sunscreens you are still subject to aging skin due to sun damage.
