Your Post-Summer Reset Guide: Aggressively Erase Sun Damage

September 2, 2025

Summer fun leaves a price: dull tone, pigmentation, broken capillaries, fine lines—all signs your skin’s had enough. Let’s get real: if you’re done hiding half your face under bronzer, here’s how Cole Facial Clinic in Flowood, MS aggressively turns back the clock.

1. BroadBand Light (BBL) – The Workhorse

Want to strike where sun damage shows—brown spots, redness, uneven tone? BBL is clinic-grade laser power. It zaps pigmentation, broken capillaries, improves skin clarity and texture. If your face looks like a roadmap after summer, this is your fix.

2. Customized Chemical Peels – Targeted Reset

Summer’s aftermath: uneven tone, roughness, early lines? A custom chemical peel isn’t gentle fluff—it’s a controlled reset button. Choose mild to deep depending on how much downtime you can tolerate (and how wrecked your skin is). Expect renewed skin that looks less sun-battered.

💡 PDGF Upgrade: Adding platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) post-peel speeds healing and stimulates new collagen, so you recover faster and your results last longer.

3. HydraFacial – Immediate Glow Treatment

Need instant gratification? HydraFacial removes dead cells, extracts gunk, then drenches skin with hydration. Think of it as facial CPR—your skin goes from “ugh” to “wow” fast.

4. Vivace Ultra RF – Tighten & Collagen Boost

Fine sun lines? Skin sagging from summer mismanagement? Vivace pairs microneedling with radio frequency to sculpt, tighten, and ramp up collagen. Effective, minimal downtime, and progressive results.

💡 PDGF Power Combo: Applied immediately after microneedling, PDGF accelerates healing and supercharges collagen growth—turning a strong treatment into a transformational one.

5. PRX Derm Perfexion – No-Peel Power

Hate the flaking and drama of peels? PRX Derm Perfexion is a no-peel biostimulator—boosts collagen and texture without shedding. It penetrates deep for real impact, especially when paired with other treatments like microneedling or facials. Smart play.

✨ Pair with PDGF to amplify the biostimulation effect. Together, PRX + PDGF signal your skin to rebuild from the inside out.

6. Dermaplane – Soft, Smooth, Immediate

Think of dermaplaning as a soft-focus filter—scraping away the dead layer and peach fuzz gives every treatment that follows (like BBL or HydraFacial) better results and a smoother finish. Quick add-on, big impact.

7. PDGF – The Regenerative Secret Weapon

PDGF isn’t just an add-on—it’s a breakthrough. It tells your skin to repair itself, accelerates healing after advanced treatments, and stimulates collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother skin. It works best when paired with Vivace, PRX, or peels, but it elevates almost every treatment we offer.

Why This Works – A Practical, Results-First Strategy

Here’s the deal—summer damage is a mix of pigment, broken capillaries, dullness, and collagen loss. Hitting your skin from every angle is essential:

BBL targets pigment and redness.
Peels reset tone and roughness.
HydraFacial delivers hydration and clean radiance.
Vivace RF rebuilds structure.
PRX improves texture and collagen without downtime.
Dermaplane boosts penetration and smoothness.
PDGF accelerates repair and amplifies results across the board.

No single wand or potion does it all. But this combination—especially with PDGF—is strategic, aggressive, smart skin recovery.

Sample Treatment Playbook

Start with BBL to reduce pigment and vascular issues.
Follow with a Peel or PRX + PDGF for texture and collagen.
Layer HydraFacial one week later for hydration and glow.
Add Vivace RF + PDGF for long-term firmness (1–3 sessions, spaced out).
Dermaplane before any step to maximize penetration and smoothness.

Takeaway

Stop settling for surface-level fixes. Your sun-damaged skin deserves a multi-pronged, clinically backed reset. At Cole Facial Clinic, we’re packing the real workhorses—and PDGF is the accelerator that makes them all more effective. Whether you want fast recovery or long-term transformation, we’ve got a path to radiant, intentionally refreshed skin.

No excuses. Just results.
