Life gets busy, and it’s easy to put self-care on the back burner. But, we want to remind you that a consistent skincare regimen can help keep your skin clear, hydrated, and youthful while giving you a much-needed break to relax and unwind.
Self-care Sundays are the perfect way to start prioritizing your skin health by creating a weekly skincare ritual that works!
The Foundation of a Healthy Skincare Routine
Setting aside time each week to focus on skincare – whether it’s a deep cleanse, an extra hydrating treatment, or simply applying a face mask while you relax – can help you reset for the week ahead.
Along with whatever you choose to enjoy during your self-care Sunday ritual, maintaining a consistent skincare routine throughout the week is essential for long-term skin health.
Specific products we recommend vary by skin type but generally include:
- Cleansing to remove dirt, oil, and impurities that can build up throughout the day. Proper cleansing prevents breakouts and keeps skin looking fresh and bright.
- Hydrating with serums or toners to help replenish lost moisture, especially after exposure to harsh weather conditions. Dry indoor air in the winter and increased sun exposure in the summer can both take a toll on the skin, making hydration an essential step.
- Moisturizing to lock in hydration and keep the skin soft and supple. Even oily skin types benefit from a lightweight moisturizer to maintain balance.
- Protecting your skin from the sun is a crucial final step for all skin types. Sunscreen should be a daily habit – even on cloudy days – to prevent premature aging and sun damage. Wearing SPF is one of the best ways to protect your skin and keep it healthy.
Choosing the Right Skincare Products
Using quality skincare products can make all the difference in achieving the best results for your skin’s health. At Aspire Plastic Surgery, we recommend professional-grade skincare brands like SkinMedica®, Colorescience®, Avene®, and Glytone®. Whether you need hydration, anti-aging support, brightening effects, or sun protection, the high-quality ingredients in these products can help you achieve a radiant, healthy complexion.
The proper combination of products for each patient depends on your unique skin type and concerns – from cleaning, hydration, moisturization, anti-aging support, brightening effects, sun protection, and more. Key ingredients like hyaluronic acid for hydration, retinol for anti-aging, and vitamin C for brightening can be incorporated into your weekly regimen to keep your skin healthy and radiant.
Enhancing Your Weekly Ritual with Medical Spa Treatments
While an at-home skincare routine is essential, professional treatments can enhance your results and provide longer-lasting benefits.
Receiving treatments in a medical spa can be a great way to support your weekly skincare ritual. Some options include:
- Hydrafacial® and DiamondGlow® treatments offer deep cleansing and hydration beyond what traditional facials can achieve.
- Chemical peels can improve skin texture and tone, revealing a brighter complexion over time.
- BBL® Photofacials can even out redness in skin tone or sun damage to restore a more youthful appearance.
- Botox® and other injectables can help maintain smooth, youthful skin by softening fine lines and restoring volume in areas where the skin naturally loses elasticity over time.
Combining professional treatments with consistent at-home skincare can help you achieve long-lasting results while keeping your skin looking and feeling its best.
