After months of social events, sun exposure, and holiday indulgence, many clients are noticing the effects on their skin. Sun damage, redness, and dehydration are common post-summer concerns that require targeted treatments to restore skin health.
Now is the perfect opportunity to recommend treatments that address summer-induced skin concerns while encouraging clients to maintain healthy skin habits year-round.
Here’s how you can help your clients reverse summer skin damage with the right aesthetic treatments.
Treating sun damage and pigmentation
Common causes
A few common triggers for sun damage and pigmentation include:
- Inconsistent sun protection leads to sunspots and hyperpigmentation.
- Prolonged UV exposure accelerates premature ageing.

Reducing redness and rosacea flare-ups
Common causes
Redness and rosacea can be triggered by several factors, with the most common being:
- Heat-induced flushing from prolonged sun exposure
- Rosacea flare-ups caused by seasonal changes and environmental stressors.
Best treatment devices for reducing redness and rosacea

Rehydrating skin after summer
Common causes
Many clients will notice drier, tighter skin after prolonged sun exposure. Factors that contribute to post-summer skin dehydration include:
- UV Exposure: Sun exposure damages the skin barrier, reducing its ability to retain moisture and accelerating water loss.
- Chlorine & salt water: Swimming frequently can strip away natural oils, leading to dryness.
- Air Conditioning: Frequent exposure to air conditioning pulls moisture from the skin.
Best treatment devices for restoring hydration to the skin
OptiGlow LED – Restoring hydration and skin balance
- Infrared light (850nm): Deeply penetrates the skin to stimulate cellular repair and hydration retention.
- Red light (633nm): Boosts collagen production and improves skin texture, helping to restore elasticity lost due to dehydration.
- Blue light (417nm): Helps rebalance oil production and soothes sensitivity or post-summer breakouts.
Tips for managing post-summer skin treatments
- Set clear expectations
For concerns like pigmentation and sun damage, clients may need multiple sessions to see full results. Be upfront about treatment timelines and maintenance protocols.
- Create a year-round skin plan
Encourage clients to incorporate seasonal treatments into their routine, alternating between laser, RF microneedling, and LED therapy for comprehensive skin maintenance.
- Bundle treatments for optimal results
Combining pigmentation treatments with LED therapy can enhance outcomes while minimising downtime. Offer package deals that include both.
