When summer rolls around, many people hit pause on their skincare treatments, especially those that increase sun sensitivity. But at Severn River Medspa, in Severna Park, MD, you don’t have to choose between glowing skin and enjoying the sunshine. We offer advanced, sun-safe treatments that revitalize your skin while keeping your summer plans intact. Two of our most trusted options? SkinLab dermabrasion and SkinPen microneedling enhanced with VAMP.
Why Traditional Treatments Can Be Risky in Summer, and How We Can Help You
Many aesthetic treatments, like chemical peels or laser resurfacing, can leave your skin more vulnerable to UV damage. While these treatments are effective, they often require sun avoidance during recovery, which isn't ideal during beach season.
But not all skin treatments are off-limits when the sun is shining. We prioritize safety without compromising results, offering alternatives that work in harmony with your lifestyle and the changing seasons.
SknLab Dermabrasion: Gentle, Effective Exfoliation
SknLab dermabrasion is a noninvasive, summer-friendly exfoliation technique that buffs away dull, damaged skin while supporting hydration and cellular turnover. Unlike harsher exfoliants or lasers, SknLab uses a controlled abrasion system paired with vacuum suction and serums to gently clear congested pores, smooth rough texture, and brighten your complexion, all with zero downtime. Perfect for combating sweat-induced breakouts, sun-induced dullness, or clogged summer pores, this treatment is safe to receive even when your skin is exposed to the sun, as long as sunscreen is properly applied.
SkinPen Microneedling With VAMP: Boosted Results, No Harsh Recovery
Microneedling is well-known for its ability to stimulate collagen, reduce fine lines, and improve texture. But when enhanced with VAMP (Vitamins, Amino Acids, Minerals & PDRN), this treatment becomes even more powerful. Here, we use the SkinPen, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, to deliver precise, controlled micro-injuries to the skin, triggering natural repair.
The VAMP addition offers a variety of benefits, including:
- Accelerates healing
- Improves tone
- Increases hydration
- Reduces redness
- Provides barrier support
These benefits combine to enhance the treatment’s results without the need for chemicals or abrasive ingredients. Unlike laser treatments, SkinPen microneedling doesn’t cause photosensitivity, making it a safe and effective option year-round, including during summer.
Which Treatment Is Best for You?
Determining the most appropriate treatment depends on your skin concerns and desired outcomes. For those seeking a gentle yet effective exfoliation to address dullness, congestion, or uneven tone, SknLab dermabrasion is an excellent choice. If your goals include improving skin texture, minimizing fine lines, or stimulating collagen production, SkinPen microneedling enhanced with VAMP may be more suitable. During your consultation, we will guide you toward the option that best aligns with your needs.
