Summer is here—and with it comes sunshine, vacations, and plenty of social events. You might be asking yourself, “Which treatments are safe to do in the summer?”. While some procedures are better suited for cooler months, there are plenty of safe, effective treatments you can enjoy all summer long with minimal downtime and maximum glow.
Here are the top med spa treatments to consider at Palo Alto Laser & Skin Care when the sun is out and the days are longer:
1. BOTOX & DAXXIFY: SMOOTH OUT SUMMER WRINKLES
Squinting in the sun or smiling through your beach day selfies? Botox and Daxxify are ideal for softening dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions—like crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. Both neurotoxins temporarily relax targeted muscles for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Why they’re great for summer:
- No downtime
- Quick, virtually painless treatment
- Results that last from 3–5+ months
- Keeps your expressions fresh and natural for all your summer events
2. HYDRAFACIALS: THE ULTIMATE SUMMER GLOW-UP
Sweat, sunscreen, and sun exposure can clog pores and dull your skin. A HydraFacial deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates using a gentle vortex technology. It’s a go-to for anyone looking to refresh their complexion and boost skin clarity—instantly.
Why it’s great for summer:
- Safe for all skin types and tones
- Zero downtime
- Immediate glow and hydration
- Can be done monthly for best results
3. DERMAL FILLERS: VOLUME, DEFINITION, AND REJUVENATION
Summer selfies call for contoured cheeks, plump lips, and a well-defined jawline. Dermal fillers like Juvederm and Restylane restore volume and enhance features without surgery.
Why they’re great for summer:
- Immediate, natural-looking results
- Minimal downtime
- Perfect for subtle enhancements before vacations or events
- Results last 6–18 months depending on the area treated
4. MICRONEEDLING: RENEW YOUR SKIN FROM WITHIN
Microneedling stimulates collagen production to improve skin tone, texture, and firmness. It’s ideal for targeting fine lines, acne scars, and sun damage.
Why it’s great for summer:
- Safe when done with proper sun care
- Boosts your natural glow
- Can be combined with serums or exosomes for enhanced results
- Minimal downtime (a few days of redness)
Just be sure to wear SPF and avoid direct sun exposure after your session!
5. EMSCULPT NEO: SCULPT YOUR SUMMER BODY
Emsculpt NEO combines radiofrequency and high-intensity electromagnetic energy to build muscle and burn fat—without breaking a sweat.
Why it’s great for summer:
- Non-invasive with no downtime
- Targets abs, glutes, arms, and thighs
- Great for enhancing your fitness efforts
- Visible results in just a few sessions
6. COOLSCULPTING: FREEZE THE FAT AWAY
Stubborn fat doesn’t take a summer vacation. CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to eliminate fat cells in areas like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and under the chin.
Why it’s great for summer:
- Completely non-invasive
- No anesthesia, no needles, no downtime
- Gradual, natural-looking fat reduction over weeks
- Perfect for shaping up before pool parties and weddings
7. THERMAGE FLX: TIGHTEN & TONE WITHOUT SURGERY
Thermage FLX is a cutting-edge, FDA-cleared skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and smooth out sagging or crepey skin.
Why it’s great for summer:
- No downtime
- Safe for all skin types and tones
- Natural results that improve over time
