Why Fall is a great time for a Chemical Peel

Feb 3

What Happens to Your Skin in the Summer

Summer brings longer days, more sunshine, and plenty of time outdoors, but it also brings challenges for your skin. Even with consistent SPF use, the combination of UV exposure, heat, sweat, and environmental pollutants can leave your complexion feeling imbalanced.

At the end of Summer, your skin may show signs of stress like:

Hyperpigmentation
Uneven skin tone and texture
Dryness or flakiness
Clogged pores or breakouts
Fine lines

As the temperature and UV exposure declines, your skin’s post-treatment recovery improves, making this the perfect time of year for a chemical peel. If you've been on the fence about chemical peels, now is the time to reset your skin barrier, fade discoloration, and hit the reset button on your skin. Peel away summer’s damage and reveal smoother, brighter skin, just in time for the holidays. Book your chemical peel at Bisous Esthetics in Austin, Texas.

Why Fall = Chemical Peel Season

1. Better results with less downtime: Fall's cooler temperatures and lower humidity levels make it an ideal time for peels, as your skin is less prone to irritation and inflammation.

2. Cooler Air Prevents Overheating & Redness: Hot, humid weather can make skin more reactive after exfoliating treatments.

3. Easier to Follow Aftercare Instructions: With shorter days and more time spent indoors, it’s easier to follow post-peel sun-care rules (no sweating, tanning, or prolonged outdoor time in the sun)

4. It's the Perfect Time to Repair Summer Damage: Peels help fade sun spots, smooth texture, and even tone—making them ideal for undoing summer’s UV and heat damage.

5. Ideal Prep for Holiday-Ready Skin: By exfoliating dull buildup and stimulating collagen, peels leave skin glowing and makeup-ready for all your winter events.

6. Skin Tends to Be Drier in Winter: Peels boost cell turnover and allow hydrating serums and creams to absorb better, restoring radiance to dehydrated, flaky skin.

7. Long-Term Benefits Add Up by Spring: Doing a series of chemical peels during cooler months builds collagen gradually and reveals fresher, renewed skin by springtime! Be sure to apply and reapply sunscreen daily to maintain your peel results throughout the summer.
