However, prolonged exposure to the sun, chlorine, salt water and changes in our routine often take their toll on our skin. Now that summer is coming to an end, you may notice new dark spots, a rougher texture or general dehydration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t panic! Autumn is the ideal season to hit \u201creset\u201d and repair your skin in depth. At <strong>Cl\u00ednica Ram\u00edrez &amp; G\u00e1lvez<\/strong>, we explain the most common types of damage and which treatments will help you restore all the radiance and health to your face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Diagnosis: What Has Happened to Your Skin This Summer? \ud83e\uddd0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before treating, it is essential to understand what has happened to our skin over these months:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Hyperpigmentation (Sun Spots):<\/strong> UV radiation stimulates melanin production irregularly, causing new spots to appear (solar lentigines) or existing ones to darken (melasma).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Deep Dehydration:<\/strong> Sun, heat and air conditioning evaporate the water in our skin, leaving it looking dull and feeling tight, and accentuating fine lines due to lack of hydration. \ud83d\udca7<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Loss of Elasticity and Firmness:<\/strong> UV rays are the main enemy of collagen and elastin, the fibres that support our skin. Their breakdown leads to a loss of firmness and a less even texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Action Plan: Treatments to Reset Your Skin in Autumn \ud83c\udf42<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With less intense sunlight, autumn is the perfect season for more intensive and safer renewing treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>For Dark Spots and Texture: Medical Peels.<\/strong> As we have mentioned before, autumn is the ideal time for peels. This treatment performs a controlled chemical exfoliation that removes the surface layers of sun-damaged skin, evening out skin tone, fading dark spots and improving the overall texture of the face.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>For Dehydration: Mesotherapy with Vitamins and Hyaluronic Acid.<\/strong> To combat summer dryness, there is nothing like a \u201cvitamin cocktail\u201d \ud83d\udc89. Facial mesotherapy consists of micro-injections of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, vitamins and antioxidants that rehydrate the skin from within, immediately restoring its plumpness and \u201cglow effect\u201d.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>For Firmness: Collagen Biostimulators.<\/strong> If you notice that your skin has lost density and firmness, biostimulators are the ideal treatment to start in autumn. They do not fill; instead, they \u201cteach\u201d your own skin to produce the collagen it has lost, achieving a gradual and very natural tightening effect that improves over the months. \ud83c\udf31<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>At-Home Care to Maintain Your Results \ud83c\udfe1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In-clinic treatment is essential, but at-home care is the key to long-term success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Sun Protection 365 Days a Year:<\/strong> Autumn and winter sun also damages the skin. Don\u2019t put away your SPF 50+ sunscreen. It\u2019s your best day cream!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Introduce Renewing Active Ingredients:<\/strong> Autumn is ideal for starting to use (always on professional advice) active ingredients such as retinol or glycolic acid in your night-time routine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Antioxidant Serums:<\/strong> Vitamin C in the morning is an excellent shield against free radicals and adds radiance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Autumn Is the New Spring for Your Skin \u2728<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t dwell on the effects of summer \u2013 see them as an opportunity to renew yourself!
