Laser Season Is Here: Why Winter Is the Best Time for Laser Treatments at The Skin Chic

When the temperatures drop and the summer sun fades, it’s officially laser season—the perfect time of year to refresh, repair, and rejuvenate your skin.

At The Skin Chic in Virginia Beach, the cooler months are ideal for laser treatments because your skin is less exposed to UV rays, allowing for faster healing and more predictable results. Whether you’re looking to smooth fine lines, fade sun damage, or restore your glow after months of sun exposure, winter is the season to start your transformation.

Why Winter Is the Perfect Time for Laser Treatments

Laser technology works by using focused energy to resurface the skin, stimulate collagen production, or target unwanted pigmentation. After treatment, your skin becomes temporarily more sensitive to sunlight—so minimizing UV exposure is key to achieving optimal results. That’s why fall and winter, when days are shorter and you spend more time indoors, offer the safest and most effective window for laser rejuvenation.

During the colder months, your skin is also more stable. Reduced sun exposure means less active pigmentation, which allows our advanced lasers to work precisely without interference from tanning or sun sensitivity. Starting your laser series now ensures your skin looks refreshed, clear, and radiant just in time for spring.

At The Skin Chic, we specialize in advanced, medical-grade laser technology that treats everything from fine lines and acne scars to sun spots, uneven tone, and unwanted hair—all customized to your unique skin type and goals.

Treat Face, Neck, and Chest for Complete Rejuvenation

One of the biggest skincare mistakes clients make is treating only the face. The neck and chest are just as prone to sun damage, wrinkles, and pigmentation, and when left untreated, they can reveal your true age even faster than your face. We always recommend including the face, neck, and chest in your laser treatment plan to maintain even tone, texture, and radiance across all visible areas. The result is smooth, luminous skin that looks naturally youthful and cohesive from every angle.

Tetra PRO CO2 Laser (Including CoolPeel®)

The Tetra PRO CO2 Laser is our most powerful resurfacing treatment for deep rejuvenation. It smooths fine lines, softens wrinkles, and restores skin texture by stimulating collagen production at the dermal level. With the CoolPeel® setting, you can experience CO2-level results with little to no downtime, making it perfect for winter recovery. This treatment is ideal for addressing sun damage accumulated during the summer and improving firmness across the face, neck, and chest.

PicoSure™ Pro Laser

The PicoSure Pro Laser is a game-changer for targeting pigmentation, acne scars, and overall dullness. It uses ultra-short bursts of energy measured in trillionths of a second to shatter pigment without damaging surrounding skin. PicoSure Pro also boosts collagen for smoother texture and brighter tone. Winter is the best time to start a PicoSure Pro series so you can gradually fade discoloration and reveal clearer, more even skin by spring.

Elite IQ™ Laser Hair Removal and Skin Rejuvenation

Winter is also prime time for laser hair removal, since hair follicles respond best when skin is untanned and not recently exposed to sunlight. Our Cynosure Elite IQ™ uses intelligent skin-reading technology to customize treatments for every skin tone. It’s perfect for removing unwanted facial or body hair while also improving pigmentation, redness, and fine lines. By starting in winter, you can complete your series before beach season begins—leaving your skin silky, smooth, and sun-ready.

Clear + Brilliant® Laser

If you’re looking for a gentle, low-downtime treatment that keeps your skin glowing all winter long, Clear + Brilliant is an excellent choice. It refreshes your skin’s surface, minimizes pores, and enhances radiance without any disruption to your daily routine. It’s perfect for maintaining results between more intensive treatments and for clients new to laser rejuvenation.
