Maryland summers can be hot and humid, which makes choosing the right cosmetic treatments especially important this time of year. With increased sun exposure comes a greater risk of pigmentation, sun damage, and premature aging, so summer is the ideal season for treatments that offer minimal downtime and won’t leave your skin overly sensitive to the sun.
While procedures like deeper chemical peels and aggressive laser treatments are often best saved for the cooler months, there are still plenty of options that can keep your skin looking refreshed, radiant, and healthy all summer long.
Here’s a breakdown of some of our favorite summer-friendly cosmetic treatments available at The Cosmetic & Skin Surgery Center:
Botox & Dysport
Botox and Dysport remain some of the most popular summer treatments-and for good reason. These wrinkle-relaxing injections require little to no downtime and do not increase sun sensitivity.
Although minor bruising or pinpoint bleeding can occasionally occur, most patients return to their daily activities immediately afterward. Results generally last about 3-4 months, making them perfect for weddings, vacations, and all of your summer events or long weekends.
Dermal Fillers & Sculptra
Dermal fillers and Sculptra are also excellent warm-weather options because they do not compromise the skin barrier or require significant recovery time.
Patients may experience temporary mild swelling and bruising, but most resume normal routines quickly. Depending on the product used, results can last anywhere from 9-12 months or longer, helping you maintain a refreshed appearance well beyond the summer season!
Selphyller Gel
Selphyller Gel is an exciting regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own blood products to restore volume and rejuvenate the skin naturally.
By using concentrated platelets and fibrin, this treatment supports collagen production and the body’s healing response while minimizing the risk of allergic reactions or sensitivities.
For facial rejuvenation, we typically recommend a series of 2-3 treatments spaced about 6 weeks apart. Results can last 6-12 months, making it a wonderful option for patients looking for gradual, natural-looking improvement.
Selphyl PRF Scalp Injections
One of our newest offerings, Selphyl PRF scalp injections are designed to support hair growth, improve hair thickness, and promote a healthier scalp.
Because there is minimal downtime and no increased sun sensitivity, these treatments fit perfectly into summer schedules. Most patients complete a series of 3 treatments spaced approximately 6 weeks apart.
For enhanced results, we recommend pairing PRF scalp injections with:
- ( plated )™ Hair Serum
- Xtresse Hair Growth Gummies
Both products are available for purchase right in our office!
Sclerotherapy
Summer often inspires patients to finally address spider veins before shorts, swimsuits, and beach trips become part of the weekly routine.
Sclerotherapy treats visible spider veins on the legs with minimal downtime and gradual improvement over several weeks. Most patients require 1-3 sessions for optimal results, with fading typically occurring within 3-6 weeks.
One of the best parts? Once a vein is successfully treated, it usually does not return-although new veins may develop over time.
Summer is the perfect time to focus on treatments that help you look refreshed without disrupting your plans or limiting outdoor activities. With the right approach, you can maintain healthy, radiant skin while still enjoying everything the season has to offer.
