Prepare Your Skin for Autumn: Top Aesthetic Services This Fall

Story by Thomas Minieri
October 6, 2024

As the leaves begin to change and the cool breeze of autumn sets in, your skincare routine should also change. Did you know that nearly 70% of people experience dry skin during the fall due to the drop in humidity? The transition from hot, humid summer days to cooler, crisper autumn air can leave your skin feeling dull, dry, and needing a refresh. But don’t worry—the right aesthetic treatments can help your skin stay radiant and hydrated throughout the autumn months.

Autumn is a season of transition. Unfortunately, it is also when many people notice their skin acting up. You may experience some of these common problems:

  • Dryness and flakiness: Cooler air has lower moisture levels, which means your skin might feel tight, flaky, and irritated.
  • Dull complexion: The natural glow you had over the summer can quickly fade as the skin cells build up and fail to shed at the same rate.
  • Sun damage: Even though summer has ended, the effects of UV exposure from beach days and outdoor activities linger in the form of pigmentation, uneven skin tone, and fine lines.
  • Clogged pores and breakouts: The combination of sunscreen, sweat, and heat can wreak havoc on your pores, leading to congestion and breakouts.

Sound familiar? You are not alone. Our skin faces new challenges when the weather shifts, and we want to feel confident, radiant, and refreshed as we head into the cooler months. You may be thinking, “How can I restore moisture to my skin? How can I repair the damage from summer while preparing for the dry winter ahead?”

What you want is simple—revitalized, glowing skin that thrives throughout the season. Hydrated, clear, and healthy skin that feels smooth, looks vibrant, and retains a youthful glow, even as the temperatures dip. Fortunately, achieving that does not have to be difficult. With the right aesthetic treatments, you can give your skin the love and care it needs to transition smoothly into fall.

At Access Aesthetics, we understand the unique skincare needs that arise during the fall. To help you tackle seasonal challenges and achieve your skincare goals, we offer a range of aesthetic services designed to refresh, rejuvenate, and repair your skin.

EWST for Skin Tightening
The aesthetic community has started to see the benefit of ESWT in several areas. The treatments can be directed to help with cellulite, scar healing, improvement in stretch mark appearance, and fatty tissue breakdown/body contouring. Studies are ongoing; however, most studies display positive results with ESWT. Our Access Aesthetics patients would meet with the treating provider to discuss areas of concern and decide whether ESWT is an appropriate therapy. Differing from the musculoskeletal guidelines, the aesthetic treatment protocol calls for a minimum of eight (8) sessions to begin seeing results. Each session is about one week (seven days) apart to allow for tissue at the cellular level to begin the process of healing, new vascularization, fatty tissue breakdown, and collagen synthesis.

Chemical Peels: Exfoliate and Renew
If you are dealing with a dull complexion and uneven skin tone, a chemical peel might be just what you need. Chemical peels remove the top layer of dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover and revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath. We offer different levels of peels depending on your skin type and needs, from mild peels that provide gentle exfoliation to deeper peels that target stubborn pigmentation and texture issues. A series of peels throughout the fall will help your skin shed the damage from summer and prepare for the winter months ahead.

Microneedling: Stimulate Collagen and Smooth Skin
Fall is the perfect time for microneedling, a treatment that stimulates collagen production to improve the texture and firmness of your skin. Whether dealing with fine lines, acne scars, or enlarged pores, microneedling creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the natural healing process. The result? Firmer, smoother skin that feels rejuvenated and refreshed.

Now, picture yourself a few weeks into the fall, having completed your personalized skincare treatments. Your skin feels deeply hydrated, smooth, and firm. There is no more tightness or flakiness. The dull, lackluster complexion you were dealing with at the beginning of the season is now glowing.

The sunspots and uneven pigmentation that lingered after summer have faded away, leaving your skin tone looking more even and radiant. Fine lines have softened, and your skin’s texture feels silky. You catch your reflection in the mirror and smile—your skin looks healthier and more youthful than ever. You feel confident and refreshed, ready to embrace all that autumn has to offer, from cozy sweaters to crisp outdoor adventures.

Imagine the compliments from friends and family noticing your vibrant, refreshed look. The treatments you invested in are working their magic, giving you the long-lasting results you desire. You are not just ready for fall—you are glowing through it.
