The 4 Best Options for Sun Damage Skin Treatment in North Myrtle Beach

Warmer weather has arrived, and the sun has come out of hiding. Trust us; we get it—you want to even out your skin tone and get the sunkissed look—that illuminating glow. 

As good as it may feel to sit in the sun and get a tan, you may experience sun damage if you don’t limit exposure and wear appropriate SPF.

Wrinkling, hyperpigmentation, sun spots, uneven skin texture, decreased elasticity, and redness are all signs that point to sun damage. 

Sun damage skin treatment in North Myrtle Beach can nurse your skin back to health. Plus, our skincare experts at Touch MedSpa can help you take preventative measures in the future!

2. HALO

HALO—the laser, not Beyoncé’s 2008 hit—is a sun damage skin treatment in North Myrtle Beach. This hybrid fractional laser uses ablative and non-ablative elements to remove the epidermal layer and trigger your body’s natural healing process to turn over new cells. 

P.S. Ablative means a layer of your skin is removed; non-ablative means it is not!

What HALO treats

  • Sun spots
  • Acne scars
  • Signs of aging
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Melasma
  • Broken capillaries
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Fine lines and wrinkles

Downtime 🛏️

Downtime is about 3 to 7 days. You’ll see a mild to moderate sunburn appearance and swelling during this time. You can return to normal activities immediately, but you may want to hide from social events until your skin heals—we refer to this as “social downtime.” 

# of sessions needed 🔁

2 to 3.

When you can enjoy the results
