Are you thinking, “Summer’s over, so it’s about time I start treating my dark spots”? Actually, when your skin is still dealing with the aftereffects of summer’s UV damage, it’s important to focus first on restoring your skin’s health. In this article, we’ll clearly explain the best time to start treating dark spots and the treatment plans recommended by Yayoi Clinic.
Should You Be Careful About Removing Sunspots Right After Summer Ends?
We do not recommend undergoing skin spot removal treatment immediately after summer ends. Skin exposed to summer UV rays tends to be dry and may even be inflamed.If treatments are performed when the skin’s barrier function is compromised, it can place a significant strain on the skin and may actually worsen the damage.. As a result, caution is necessary because there is a risk of hyperpigmentation or redness remaining.
The key to removing dark spots is to restore the health of the dermis!
シミ取りでは、まず「真皮のコンディションを整えること」が重要です。真皮の状態が整っていないと、ターンオーバーが乱れ、施術後の肌の回復や仕上がりに影響する場合があります。
さらに、レーザー後の炎症が再び色素沈着を起こし、シミが長引くことも。To effectively treat dark spots, start by ensuring your skin is in a healthy condition.。
What's the best time of year to start treating dark spots?
Skin spot removal is most effective when UV levels are lowA treatment that many people start in the fall and winterThat’s right. While many people want to undergo treatments toward the end of summer, around September and October, this isn’t the best time because the skin is still showing signs of damage from sun exposure. This season is ideal for addressing dark spots because it’s easier to protect your skin from UV rays and to care for your skin after treatment.
