The sun can age and burn your skin, and it can also cause damage on the cellular level, leading to skin cancer. The good news is, the U.S. Dermatology Partners team can help you formulate a plan to prevent sun damage and repair the effects of the sun’s UV rays so that you can go out and enjoy a sunny day. Learn more on this page or contact U.S. Dermatology Partners to schedule an appointment with us.

Individuals who are prone to sunburn are thought to be genetically predisposed to skin cancer. Risk is also increased when exposure to UV rays is excessive. Sunscreen helps prevent the damaging effects of ultraviolet radiation, including skin aging and skin cancer like melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

Sunscreens are rated and labeled with a sun protection factor (SPF) that measures the fraction of sunburn-producing UV rays that reach the skin. The higher the SPF, the greater the protection.

Sunscreen is a topical product that is used to reflect or absorb some of the ultraviolet rays from the sun.

When it comes to dermatological treatments that will help people reclaim a youthful glow, create an even skin tone, and minimize the appearance of scars, chemical peels offer a conservative solution that addresses all of these concerns. Chemical peels are versatile treatments that help to improve the health and appearance of the skin, and just about every patient could benefit from the procedure.

Chemical Peels are treatments that can improve the skin’s appearance by peeling off an old layer of skin to reveal the healthy new skin below. The ingredient used in the chemical peel solution makes the skin redden, and when the skin peels off, the skin below it is smoother, healthier, and less wrinkled.

Dermaplaning is a safe and effective physical exfoliation procedure that triggers cell regeneration and allows products to better penetrate the skin. Dermaplaning is considered excellent for ridding the face of excess fine hairs which can often accumulate dirt and oil.

Dermaplaning is a form of physical skin exfoliation that helps the skin appear younger, healthier and more vibrant.

When people hear “facial,” they may think of a trip to the spa. While these treatments do feel refreshing, they also offer numerous dermatologic benefits for healthy skin. However, many medi-spas and other practitioners who provide facials don’t have the proper training to make the necessary personalized adjustments to meet individual needs and address specific skin health concerns. If you’re looking for an indulgent and relaxing professional option, consider scheduling a facial treatment at U.S. Dermatology Partners.

Deep cleansing facials can be as relaxing as they are effective.

A HydraFacial treatment, similar to microdermabrasion, is designed to refresh and rejuvenate your skin without downtime or irritation after the procedure. HydraFacials provide instant results and leave your skin looking healthier and younger. The three-step process begins by cleansing skin, then exfoliating, before finishing with a targeted “booster” serum designed to address your specific skin conditions and concerns while hydrating the skin.

Rather than using abrasive exfoliants, as is the case with microdermabrasion, the entire HydraFacial process relies on the unique tool that simultaneously draws dead skin cells, oils, toxins, and other buildup out of the skin while applying nutrient-rich and soothing products like hyaluronic acids, antioxidants, peptides, and other restorative products. This increases the efficacy of skincare products by introducing them to skin without dead skin cells or clogged pores presenting obstacles that prevent these treatments from being completely effective. In addition to the basic HydraFacial process, your dermatologist can also customize your treatment plan to include added procedures like dermal fillers, neurotoxin injections, and other cosmetic solutions.

HydraFacials offer numerous benefits, including:

• Loosening and removing dead skin cells
• Clearing pores
• Delivering a brighter skin tone
• Offering a low-intensity, gentle exfoliation solution
• Promoting skin’s collagen and elastin production
• Generating healthy cell turnover
• Reducing the number of flare-ups and breakouts related to common skin conditions
• Maintaining a more youthful appearance through increased fullness and elasticity
• Diminishing the size of enlarged pores
• Lightening dark spots on the skin
• Creating a personalized facial treatment that is tailored to the individual’s skin care needs
