It’s getting colder by the minute here in Massachusetts, and the holiday season is officially in full swing. No matter what you’re celebrating, we know everybody wants to bring the best version of themselves to the table. Even in the cold of winter, skin care is always a hot topic!
Skin MD is dedicated to having you look, feel, and be your very best self all year round, inside and outside of clinic. We have an awesome promotion running through December 2024 — all skincare products are 20% off! So, we figured, why highlight just one product when you can score savings on all of them? Plus, now is the best time to upgrade your skincare regimen if you want the most out of your treatment results and keep your skin looking younger all winter. Go into the new year with an updated routine, curated just for you.
You might have heard our technicians compare treatments to the gym, and your skincare routine to your diet. Becoming fit would be significantly harder if you’re doing one without the other. The same goes for your skin! If you don’t have a great maintenance routine, your results won’t be the best they could possibly be. This is why building a skincare routine is so important. It’s not only one of the best ways to practice self-care, but it also improves the results of your treatments done at Skin MD.
The very first step in setting up a routine is to discover your skin type. Are you acne prone, dry, oily, or combination? (And if you just aren’t sure, a Skin MD medical esthetician can help you identify what your skin type leans towards.) Next, what are your skin concerns? Are you looking to improve tone and brightness of your skin? How about addressing sun, brown or age spots? Texture can also be a concern you wish to address!
It’s no secret that our skin gets drier in the winter. Beat the cold and stock up on moisturizers and hydrating serums. Your winter skin care routine should focus on hydration – think rich, luxe creams for the night time, gentle exfoliation, and other products we carry in house that will lock in moisture.
Once you know your skin type, the next step is to choose the product line that is right for you.
Skin MD carries medical grade skincare products SkinCeuticals, Obagi, NeoCutis and SkinMedica. These lines are known for their scientific formulas, superior ingredients and targeted formulations for different concerns, including signs of aging, acne, texture and tone. The best part? All Skin MD medical grade products offered are backed by scientific studies and are highly regarded by dermatologists and aesthetic professionals around the globe. Meaning, these skincare brands are clinically proven to give you results, unlike the products you may find over the counter or in a drugstore.
The Skin MD team can help you navigate through your decision process with ease. Choose a complimentary consultation with a patient coordinator, or schedule a DiamondGlow facial, which will grant you inside access to a wealth of knowledge with one of our medical estheticians. Either path will give you a customized winter skin care regimen specifically curated for your own personal aesthetic goals!
Now one last mention about the holiday season! There’s no better feeling than winding down and ending your day with a little luxury. This time of year, can be stressful — whether you’re hosting, gift giving, cooking for the family, or traveling, give yourself some extra love this holiday season, because self-care this time of year is EXTRA important. You deserve it! And if gift giving is top of your mind, there are a variety of gift sets available from SkinCeuticals and Obagi as well as standalone products that make great stocking stuffers (we’re looking at you, SkinMedica HA5!) Let Skin MD be the ultimate Santa Helper to you this holiday season. Stop by any of our locations and stock up.
