Let summer be your skin’s season to reset and glow.. With longer days, warmer weather, and a little extra sunshine, many of us naturally shift toward lighter routines and a more carefree mindset. But all that sun and heat can also leave our skin, hair, and bodies feeling a bit out of balance. That’s where our Summer Glow Up Series comes in—a curated collection of expert-recommended treatments and products designed to help you look and feel your best this season.
Here’s a breakdown of what we’re focusing on this summer at Prejuvenation Aesthetics in Leesburg, VA:
Body Edition:
It’s easy to focus on our faces, but our backs, chest, and the rest of our body often need just as much care—especially during summer. Sun exposure, sweat, and sunscreen can build up on the skin, leading to congestion and breakouts. This is especially important during Acne Awareness Month, when we’re reminded that breakouts aren’t limited to the face.
For those prone to back acne, or ‘bacne,’ treatments like the Hydrabody Hydrafacial—performed by our Licensed Master Esthetician Brooke Worley—can make a noticeable difference. This deep-cleansing, exfoliating treatment includes extractions to help clear pores and smooth the skin, leaving it better prepared for warm-weather activities. And it’s not just for your back—it can also be done on other areas experiencing congestion or breakouts, such as the arms, booty, shoulders, and more.
At-home care is just as important for maintaining clear, comfortable skin. Products like ZO Skin Health Body Emulsion, Body Smoothing Cream, and Dual-Action scrub can help support clearer, healthier skin between treatments.
For those dealing with excessive sweating, hyperhidrosis treatments can offer significant relief by targeting overactive sweat glands. This condition, which affects areas like the underarms, palms, soles of the feet, and even the face, can be effectively managed with neuromodulator injections such as Botox. When injected into the affected areas, the treatment works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals responsible for activating sweat glands—significantly reducing sweat production for several months at a time. It’s a quick, minimally invasive solution that can greatly improve comfort, confidence, and quality of life, especially during the warmer months.
Skin Edition:
Summer can be especially challenging for our skin. Between the constant sunscreen reapplication, chlorine from pool days, and sun exposure, our skin often feels dull and dehydrated. Enter Hydrafacial and Skinvive—our ultimate hydration heroes. These treatments, offered by Brooke and Shannon, replenish hydration and bring back your skin’s natural, healthy glow.
Hydrafacial offers a deep cleanse and gentle exfoliation, clearing away dead skin cells and impurities while infusing the skin with nourishing serums that restore moisture. Skinvive complements this by working beneath the surface, using hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate the skin—smoothing texture and keeping your complexion plump, fresh, and radiant for weeks to come.
If you love spending time outdoors, consider adding a quick spritz of ZO Skin Health Soothing Hydro Mist to your routine. It’s an easy, on-the-go way to cool and calm the skin, keeping you feeling refreshed and hydrated throughout the day.
Hair Edition:
When we think of summer beauty, it’s easy to focus on radiant skin and a healthy glow—but what about our hair? Often overlooked, the scalp is the foundation of healthy, strong hair. This summer, we’re shining a spotlight on scalp and hair care with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injections—an advanced treatment that uses your body’s own growth factors to support hair density, strength, and thickness. These treatments help stimulate the scalp to promote natural hair growth, providing long-term benefits that go beyond the surface.
To further boost scalp health, we’re pairing PRP with red light therapy. This non-invasive treatment uses low-level light to enhance circulation and cell renewal in the scalp, creating an optimal environment for stronger, healthier hair growth. It’s a dynamic duo that addresses both scalp and hair health for visible, lasting results.
For patients looking to enhance their hair restoration routine, (plated) Hair Serum offers a potent, science-backed option. This serum harnesses the power of exosomes—tiny, cell-derived messengers rich in growth factors—to help repair and rejuvenate the scalp. By improving the scalp’s overall environment, it supports healthier hair follicles, encourages stronger strands, and helps improve the appearance of thinning or fragile hair. Used consistently, it’s an effective complement to in-office treatments like PRP injections.
Face Edition:
This summer, we’re also focusing on Sculptra—a subtle yet powerful treatment designed to address common concerns like facial volume loss, skin laxity, and visible signs of aging. By gradually stimulating your body’s own collagen production, Sculptra helps improve skin quality, firmness, and overall texture over time. Unlike traditional fillers that provide instant volume, Sculptra works beneath the surface to restore structure and support—resulting in a refreshed, natural-looking appearance that enhances your features without looking overdone. It’s an ideal option for those seeking long-term collagen support and a healthier, natural youthful glow.
For optimal results, we recommend pairing Sculptra with a targeted at-home antioxidant serum, such as our ZO Skin Health Illuminating AOX Serum. This potent antioxidant serum not only protects the skin against environmental stressors but also helps maintain a balanced, radiant complexion.
The Takeaway
Summer is all about feeling confident and comfortable in your own skin—whether that means clearing up your back, giving your complexion a natural glow, or giving your hair and scalp the care they deserve. Our Summer Glow Up Series isn’t about dramatic makeovers; it’s about thoughtful, supportive treatments and at-home care that leave you feeling fresh, radiant, and ready to embrace the season.
