\u2022 Who wants to worry about shaving if that last-minute pool party invite comes in? Laser hair removal<\/strong><\/a> will help you get your bathing suit ready. Start now while the skin is paler. Usually, six to 12 treatments do the trick, with six to eight weeks between appointments.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Clear skin means less makeup in the hot summer months\u2026yes please! VITAHL suggests IPL, Intense Pulsed Light<\/strong><\/a>, and chemical peels<\/strong><\/a> to treat sunspots and visible signs of aging. While the chemical peel uses a medicated solution to reveal all over flawless skin, IPL uses light therapy to minimize or eliminate age spots and sun damage. Both treatments can take a couple of sessions to get ideal results.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Get those gams ready for shorts! Laser Vein Therapy<\/strong><\/a> eliminates those tiny spider and reticular (those blue ropy veins usually on the back of the legs and knees). While the treatment is almost painless, there can be some bruising with this treatment. The time to do it is when we are still wearing pants and tights.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Say yes to fewer wrinkles! RF Microneedling<\/strong><\/a> is a great treatment for wrinkle reduction and overall anti-aging. Results can include improved texture and firmness, as well as a reduction in scars, pore size, and stretch marks.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Kiss that winter skin goodbye with Laser Genesis. Laser Genesis<\/strong><\/a> is used to treat texture, redness, and overall skin health.<\/p>\n

HB: Who is a good candidate?<\/h3>\n

\u2022 Laser Hair Removal can be used on all skin types, especially the ones who don\u2019t want to kick the razor to the curb!<\/p>\n

\u2022 Lighter skin patients tend to respond to IPL more.<\/p>\n

\u2022 VITAHL offers tailored chemical peels for all skin types.<\/p>\n

\u2022 RF microneedling is beneficial for most skin types.<\/p>\n

\u2022 All skin types can benefit from Laser Genesis.<\/p>\n

\"LaserPhoto Credit: Shutterstock<\/span>HB: Is there downtime after these treatments?<\/h3>\n

\u2022 Expect minimal downtime post-Laser Hair Removal. Redness in the treated area may last for up to 24 hours and try to stay out of the sun for a few days.<\/p>\n

\u2022 After an IPL treatment, brown spots darken and flake off. This usually takes about 10 days.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Most people experience flaking and\/or peeling for three to five days after a chemical peel.<\/p>\n

\u2022 RF microneedling offers minimal downtime and redness for 24 to 48 hours.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Enjoy no downtime after Laser Genesis. The treated area will look rosy after treatment for about an hour.<\/p>\n

HB: What at-home tips can help prep your skin for the summer?<\/h3>\n

\u2022 Be sure to use good, medical-grade skincare products.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Exfoliate for cell turnover. Active Serum by iS Clinical is VITAHL\u2019s product of choice for this.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Use Vitamin C to fight free radicals. VITAHL recommends ProHeal Serum by iS Clinical.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
