The Sun’s Effects on the Skin

Gravity, genetics, and age all play a role in the development of wrinkles, lines, and lax skin, but sun damage or “photo-aging” is the main culprit.

UV rays enter your skin, affecting the DNA and altering skin quality and appearance. For those with very fair skin, it takes only five to ten minutes exposed to the sun for the damage to begin. While sunlight provides your body with needed vitamin D, the damage caused by UV rays may cause you to rethink how much time you spend in the sun with your skin unprotected.

Fine lines, wrinkles

Sagging skin

BodyTite

Sun damage can affect the skin on your body, leaving it looking crepey, loose, and aged. BodyTite treatments can smooth and firm the skin on the abdomen, back, hips, buttocks, thighs, arms, knees, or neck for a firmer, more youthful appearance.

RF Microneedling

For deep skin rejuvenation, RF microneedling does magic. The treatment triggers natural skin regeneration, leaving you with firmer, more supple skin.

Chemical Peels

A custom chemical peel will remove the upper layer of sun-damaged skin to create an evenly-toned, more youthful appearance and feel.

IPL Photofacial

IPL treatments involve targeted light energy applied to the skin to remove hyperpigmentation and trigger natural skin cell growth for firmer, smoother, younger skin.
