Southlake Plastic Surgery

After a long, lovely summer under that Texas sun, you may be suffering the consequences of some sun damage. Although we love a good tan as much as the next person, UV exposure is no friend to your skin. 

Sun spots, wrinkles, and dry patches abound after a few months under the sun. If you’re wondering how to reverse sun damage, Southlake Plastic Surgery is your trusted medical spa in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.

We provide preventative and anti-aging products, treatments, and more to help revitalize your skin after a long summer! In this blog, learn about our 3 most effective tips on how to reverse sun damage. 

What is sun damage

Of all the environmental factors that cause signs of skin aging, UV exposure is the most prominent one. Sun damage can look like:

  • Sun spots, also known as liver spots or age spots
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Sagging skin
  • Dry, dull skin

Luckily, sun damage on the skin is not impossible to repair!

How to reverse sun damage at Southlake Plastic Surgery

BBL Hero

BBL Hero harnesses the power of BBL (broad band light) to break up melanin in the skin, which reduces hyperpigmentation in age spots, clearing and brightening your skin!

Your expert provider uses the hand held device to deliver pulsed light energy to your skin. The treatment lasts about 45 minutes, and most patients experience results in as little as 2 weeks! 

Moxi

Our Moxi laser treatment is perfect for quickly correcting sun damage. This treatment also has the added benefit of preventing damage from happening in the future!

Our patients often use Moxi in conjunction with a BBL Hero treatment or Halo treatment. Moxi is known to polish the skin, giving it that famous Moxi glow! 

With just 24 hours of downtime, this 30 minute treatment is perfect for anyone in their 20s or beyond to prevent or correct sun-damaged skin. 

Medical grade skincare products

We like to look at treatments such as BBL and Moxi as going to the dentist, and your at-home skincare routine like brushing your teeth. While treatments are beneficial, maintenance is essential!

Medical grade skincare products differ from over the counter ones in that they are specially formulated to target certain skin conditions, such as signs of aging or acne. 

Because they are clinically formulated, they hold a higher percentage of active ingredients than OTC, making them even more effective.
