Post-Summer Skin Recovery: Get Back to Glow
After weeks of sun exposure, holidays, and outdoor living, your skin might be feeling a little… off.
Even with the best intentions (and SPF), it’s common to experience pigmentation, dehydration, sensitivity, and dullness at the end of summer.
September is your window to reset. Let’s rebuild your skin barrier, rebalance your routine, and prep for the colder months ahead — together.
🌤️ What Happens to Skin Over Summer?
Pigmentation appears or darkens
Collagen breakdown accelerates with UV exposure
Dehydration creeps in from heat, air travel, and lighter routines
Breakouts or sensitivity often spike post-holiday
This doesn’t mean you’ve “damaged” your skin — just that it’s time for a little restoration and recalibration.
💧 Step 1: Hydrate & Support the Barrier
Replenishing moisture is key in early autumn. We recommend:
Hyaluronic acid serum + nourishing moisturiser
Skin Omegas+ (ANP) to hydrate from within
Barrier-focused facials (like Environ or DMK)
Less exfoliation, more hydration
Think “restore and strengthen,” not “strip and resurface.”
🧖♀️ Step 2: Book a Skin Consultation or Plan a Course
September is one of our busiest months for consultations and treatment planning — and for good reason.
It’s the ideal time to:
Start a microneedling course
Begin DMK Skin Revision
Reintroduce Vitamin A with Environ
Plan targeted support for pigmentation, acne or ageing
If you start now, you’ll see results by winter.
📦 Step 3: Refresh Your Homecare
Before you top up your SPF or summer serum, ask yourself:
Is your skin the same as 3 months ago?
Are your products still what your skin needs now?
Do you want guidance on what to adjust?
We offer in-person and online skincare consultations — or you can pop into the clinic for advice anytime.
🍂 Autumn Skin Starts Here
If you’ve never had a consultation with us — now’s the time. And if you’re a regular client, we’d love to review your routine and adjust as needed.
Our skin changes with the seasons — and so should our care.
