Fall Skin Reset: Restore Your Glow for the Holidays

Summer heat can leave your skin looking dull, dehydrated, uneven, or textured. October is an ideal month to reset your skin, address post-summer skin concerns, and start preparing for the upcoming holiday season. 

At Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness in Cary, NC, give your skin a fresh start with the October Skin Reset special offer. 

Fall in Love With Your Skin

This October, repair summer and rebuild collagen. Get holiday-ready. 

Just for $499, choose the treatment that works best for you:

  • SkinPen Microneedling + Regenerative Booster

OR

  • Deluxe HydraFacial + Customized Chemical Peel + LED

Also, receive a complimentary VISIA skin analysis.

Why Does Your Skin Need a Reset After Summer?

Sun exposure, heat, humidity, sweating, and outdoor activities can cause several skin concerns and leave your complexion looking different by the time fall arrives. 

Common concerns that you may notice:

  • Uneven skin tone 
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Dehydrated and dull skin
  • Fine lines
  • Visible pores

Sometimes, home skincare routines also don’t work. In those cases, professional help can give a more targeted approach to deal with specific skin concerns. 

Fall can be an excellent time to evaluate your skin condition and determine a personalized treatment plan with the help of a professional.  

What is a Skin Reset?

Skin reset treatment aims to repair damaged skin, clear congestion, and help you recover from summer sun damage. The type of skin reset treatment can depend on your skin type, concerns, and personal goals. 

The October Skin Reset offers two treatment plans, where you can choose the option that works well for your skin. 

Option 1: SkinPen Microneedling + Regenerative Booster

SkinPen is a medical-grade microneedling device that creates thousands of microscopic punctures. This activates an immune response that views these tiny punctures as wounds and works to heal and disinfect the tissue by triggering a massive surge of collagen. 

This can be used to address concerns such as:

  • Breaks down deep acne scars and replaces them with healthy skin tissues
  • Softens fine lines and neck wrinkles
  • Minimising large pores
  • Fades uneven summer tan

This procedure is considered safe for all types of skin tones as it relies entirely on the mechanical healing response instead of heat or lasers, but consulting a professional is still recommended to avoid any potential side effects. 

A regenerative booster can also be incorporated with your provider’s recommendation when appropriate. 

Request an Appointment

Option 2: Deluxe HydraFacial + Customized Chemical Peel + LED

If your skin is feeling dull, congested, and dehydrated, a combination treatment can work for you to get rid of these concerns.

A HydraFacial is a multi-step facial treatment that uses a vortex-fusion suction device to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and remove impurities while incorporating intense moisturizing serums into your skin. 

A customized chemical peel is used to gently exfoliate your skin, removing the dead skin cells to uncover a fresh layer. 

LED therapy is used at the end of the session to maximize cellular repair. Red light calms the post-treatment redness and promotes collagen growth, while blue light neutralizes acne-causing bacteria and balances excessive oil production.

Why October Is a Great Time for a Skin Reset

October marks the transition from summer into the cooler months, bringing changes in temperature and environment, creating a perfect time for recovery from summer heat. With the holiday season also approaching, October is an ideal time to give your skin some extra care and prepare for upcoming celebrations.

Instead of waiting until the last minute, October gives an appropriate time frame to evaluate your skin and begin a treatment earlier if needed. 

Start With a VISIA Skin Analysis

Understanding your skin condition first helps you choose a plan that suits your skin. 

That’s why October Skin Reset includes a complimentary VISIA skin analysis.

VISIA Skin Analysis is a computer-driven facial imaging system that uses multi-spectral photography and AI to measure surface and subsurface skin condition. 

This analysis provides additional insight into your skin, and your provider can use this information to create a personalized treatment for your current skin condition. 

Rather than choosing the most popular plan, you can actually get a treatment that will address your skin concerns and give you fresh, glowing skin. 

Want Better Results From a Series?

If you want to make your skin reset treatment a larger plan. Book 3 skin resets for just $1,299. 

This series can provide an opportunity to continue working towards your skin care goals while maintaining a consistent treatment schedule.

Sculptra and Radiesse for Facial Rejuvenation: Build Collagen Now, Glow Through the Holidays

Weight loss can reduce your facial glow, making your face look less defined and more tired. October can be an ideal time to start a treatment plan focused on collagen stimulation and restoring facial volume. 

At Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness in Cary, NC, we are offering October specials: Sculptra/Radiesse collagen treatments. These treatments focus on natural collagen stimulation, improving facial structures, and giving a natural-looking rejuvenation before the holiday season. 

What Happens to Your Face After Weight Loss?

Weight loss can change more than your body shape. When facial volume decreases, people notice less fullness in their cheeks, a more hollow or tired appearance, and less defined features. 

These changes do not mean that you need fillers. The goal of facial treatments is to consider your facial structures and skin condition and create a personalized treatment approach. 

Why Collagen Matters for Facial Rejuvenation

Collagen is a building block for skin that gives skin strength and supports firmness. Aging decreases natural collagen production. Weight loss and sun exposure are other factors that contribute to visible changes in facial volume and skin quality. 

Request an Appointment

That’s where collagen-focused aesthetic treatments work. Treatments such as Sculptra and Radiesse are designed to support your natural collagen production and restore facial fullness over time. 

Sculptra vs. Radiesse: What’s the Difference?

Both treatments focus on lifting your face, but they work differently.

Sculptra

It is an injectable collagen biostimulator that stimulates your body to rebuild its own natural collagen, restoring facial volume and smoothing wrinkles. It is made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA).

PLLA acts like a seed, irritating deeper skin layers just enough to trigger natural collagen production. Over time, your body breaks and eliminates it as water and carbon dioxide without causing harm. 

Sculptra is commonly used to treat facial concerns such as:

  • Restores mid-face volume 
  • Fills hollow areas of the face
  • Softens the marionette lines
  • Provides structural support to chin and jawline

Radiesse

It is a dermal filler and biostimulator made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa) suspended in a water-based gel carrier. When injected, it gives an instant lift and fills wrinkles. Over time, it stimulates skin to produce new collagen. It can be used to address concerns such as:

  • Severe wrinkles like smile lines
  • Improves jawline definition
  • Treat thinner skin on neck, chest, and arms.

Which One Is Right for You?

There is no single best treatment for everyone. What works well for you depends on several factors such as your facial anatomy, areas of volume loss, skin quality, previous treatments, and personal goals. 

A consultation with a professional is important to determine whether Sculptra, Radiesse, or another treatment is appropriate for you. 

Why Start Your Collagen Journey in October?

For glowing or refreshed-looking skin during this holiday season, waiting until December may be a good plan. However, a personalized treatment requires planning and time to work towards your goals before the holidays. 

That’s why the message of this month from Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness is to “Build Collagen Now. Glow Through the Holidays.” We are offering Fall Lift & Glow.

Sculptra & Radiesse Collagen Month

Buy 3 vials/syringes: $350 OFF

This October special is designed for individuals who are ready to begin a personalized collagen-focused treatment plan.

Morpheus8 Skin Treatment Cary, NC

Forma vs Morpheus8: Which Treatment is Right for You?

Skin changes are common with growing age, sun exposure, weight changes, hormonal imbalance, and other factors, resulting in concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and texture. Radiofrequency treatments can help with these skin problems by using controlled radiofrequency to heat targeted areas of the skin. 

Forma and Morpheus8 are treatments that use radiofrequency technology, but their mode of treatment are different and can target different skin concerns. Therefore, the right option may depend on your skin concerns, treatment goals, and preferences. At Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness, you can understand these concerns with professional help and make an informed decision. 

What is Forma by InMode?

Forma by InMode is a non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) treatment that works to improve skin firmness and elasticity. In this treatment, controlled radiofrequency energy is used that gently heats the deeper layer of your skin and supports collagen and elastin remodelling. It is a needle-free option to treat skin issues such as mild skin laxity, fine lines, wrinkles, and changes in skin firmness around the face, jawline, neck, arms, abdomen, thighs, and knees. This is a non-surgical treatment that requires little to no downtime, providing noticeable results.  

What is Morpheus8?

Unlike Forma, Morpheus8 requires minimal invasion and combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to treat skin texture and firmness. In this treatment, tiny needles enter the skin at controlled depths and deliver radiofrequency beneath the skin surface, allowing energy to reach into deeper layers to support collagen remodeling and stimulate natural skin tightening. 

Morpheus8 is safe and effective for skin concerns like wrinkles, acne scars, sagging skin, and uneven texture. It requires minimal downtime and delivers smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking radiant skin. As it uses microneedles, temporary redness, swelling, or sensitivity can occur, so medical consultation is important before proceeding with the treatment. 

Forma vs. Morpheus8: What is the Difference?

Both of these technologies use radiofrequency to deliver energy, but the mode they use and the skin concerns they address are different:

Treatment method: Forma uses bipolar radiofrequency energy to heat the dermis to contract collagen and stimulate neocollagenesis without harming the outer layer of the skin. Morpheus8 is a microneedling treatment penetrating deep into the skin to remodel collagen and stimulate natural skin tightening.

Needles: Forma is a non-surgical, non-invasive, needleless treatment that uses bipolar RF to heat skin without breaking it, whereas Morpheus8 uses microneedles to penetrate deeper layers of skin.

Treatment depth: Forma heats the dermal and subdermal layers through electrodes placed on the skin. Morpheus8 delivers RF energy at different depths as required. 

Skin concerns: Forma is considered for skin concerns around the forehead, eyelids, crow’s feet, nasolabial folds, jowls, jawline, and neck, and body concerns in arms, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and knees. Morpheus8 can be considered for wrinkles, acne scars, sagging skin, and uneven texture for both face and body.

Downtime: Forma is designed with little to no downtime. Morpheus8 may require some downtime, as penetration can cause temporary redness and swelling.

Which is right for you: Forma or Morpheus8

Choosing Forma or Morpheus8 depends on your skin concern, treatment preference, and overall goals. Before proceeding with treatment, consult a professional to make an informed decision. Consider the following factors:

Your main skin concern: You should understand your skin concern before going for any treatment. Forma is suitable for skin concerns such as wrinkles, mild laxity, and fine lines, while Morpheus8 is a better option if skin texture or acne scarring is a concern. 

Degree of skin laxity: Treatment may depend upon the severity of skin looseness.

Needle-free preference: If you want to avoid deep penetration into your skin, you can choose Forma, but consultation is important before treatment. 

Treatment goals: Choice of treatment may also be influenced by changes in firmness, texture, and overall skin appearance. 

Forma and Morpheus8 at Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness

At Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness, we offer both treatments for people who are looking to improve skin firmness, texture, and overall appearance. These are FDA-approved treatments that use radiofrequency to deliver energy; however, the mode of delivery and the skin concerns they address are different. Treatment choice depends on the skin condition, but consultation with a professional may help you understand what works best for you. During consultation, a professional first evaluates your skin conditions, discusses your personal goals, and explains which treatment may be appropriate. This approach helps to create a personalized plan and helps individuals achieve desired results.

CO2-Laser_beforeafter-300×162-1

CO2 Laser Treatment: Benefits, Recovery, and Results Explained

If your skin is showing signs of sun damage, uneven texture, fine lines, or lingering acne scars, then you need a treatment that can give you a noticeable improvement with minimal recovery. CO2 Laser Treatment has become a popular choice among people who are looking for smoother and healthier-looking skin while minimizing downtime. At Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness, the Tetra CoolPeel CO2 laser is designed to refresh the skin’s surface and help you feel more confident in your appearance.

What Is CO2 Laser Treatment?

CO2 Laser Treatment is a skin resurfacing procedure that is known for improving the appearance of damaged or aging skin. At Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness, we perform this treatment using the Tetra CO2 laser, which is commonly known as CoolPeel Laser Treatment. This is the only technology that is capable of performing a CoolPeel procedure.

CO2 Laser Treatment

Benefits of CO2 Laser Treatment

One of the biggest benefits of CO2 Laser Treatment is its ability to address several common skin concerns during a customized treatment plan. Instead of focusing on a single issue, it helps to improve the overall appearance and texture of the skin.

The treatment can improve:

  • Fine lines
  • Sun damage
  • Enlarged pores
  • Uneven skin texture

It is also used to address:

  • Brown spots
  • Pigmentation
  • Wrinkles
  • Scars, including acne scars
  • Sun spots

Apart from these cosmetic improvements, the treatment encourages healthier-looking skin by supporting collagen production. 

What Makes CoolPeel Laser Treatment Different?

Every laser resurfacing treatment works differently. The CoolPeel Laser Treatment stands out because it works best with the Tetra CO2 laser.

The unique H-Pulse technology delivers a fully ablative treatment without causing unnecessary thermal damage to nearby tissue. This approach helps to minimize downtime and provide effective superficial resurfacing.

For patients who are interested in laser skin rejuvenation but are concerned about recovery, this technology offers an option that balances visible improvement with convenience. The goal is to give you smoother skin, refined texture, and a brighter complexion without a long healing process that often comes with traditional resurfacing procedures.

Recovery usually takes 3-7 days for great glowing skin, especially with proper post-care treatments like exosomes, PDRN, and medical-grade skincare. It can help minimize downtime and give better results.

What to Expect During Recovery

Recovery is an important consideration for anyone who is looking for cosmetic treatments. One of the reasons many patients choose CO2 Laser Treatment at Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness is its emphasis on minimal downtime.

CoolPeel® procedure avoids unnecessary thermal damage to surrounding tissue, which minimizes downtime. This allows individuals to return to their regular activities comfortably and enjoy the benefits of skin resurfacing.

Every person’s skin is different, which is why a consultation is important. During your visit, your provider will discuss your goals, review your medical history, and examine your skin to determine whether this treatment is appropriate for you.

When Will You See Results?

Results often vary from person to person and also depend on individual skin concerns and treatment goals. We provide personalized treatment plans to help patients achieve smoother skin, improved texture, and a healthier-looking complexion.

Our team of professionals focuses on creating visible and long-lasting improvements through customized care. Whether you’re expecting to soften wrinkles, improve pigmentation, or reduce the appearance of scars, our goal is to give you a natural-looking rejuvenation that complements your features.

Is CO2 Laser Treatment Right for You?

If you are stressed with fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, acne scars, pigmentation, or uneven skin texture, then CO2 Laser Treatment may be worth discussing with a qualified provider. However, at Prejuve MedSpa & Wellness, we provide complimentary consultations that allow you to learn whether the treatment aligns with your skin concerns and aesthetic goals.

Our team takes time to understand your concerns and expectations before recommending a personalized treatment approach and helping you to ensure that your care is tailored to your unique needs.

Types of Microneedling offered at Prejuve Medspa: SkinPen & Morphues8

This process, known as collagen induction therapy, helps rejuvenate the skin by promoting the growth of new skin cells, leading to smoother, firmer skin with improved texture and tone over time. SkinPen is safe for all skin types and can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, and décolletage, making it particularly effective in treating acne scars, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation.

We utilize Morpheus8, an innovative combination of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This powerful treatment penetrates deeper layers of the skin, offering enhanced collagen stimulation and effective skin tightening. Morpheus8 is particularly effective for addressing severe wrinkles, scars, and skin laxity, making it an ideal choice for those seeking transformative results without surgery.

Morpheus8 can be used on various areas of the body, not just the face. Its combination of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy allows it to target deeper layers of the skin, making it effective for tightening and rejuvenating different body areas. These areas include decollate, abdomen, thighs, hands, and knees.

The frequency of Morpheus8 treatments depends on the individual’s skin condition and desired results. Generally, most people start with a series of 3 to 4 treatments spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart to achieve optimal results. This schedule allows the skin to heal and for collagen production to be stimulated effectively between sessions.

After the initial series, maintenance treatments are usually recommended every 6 to 12 months to sustain the results. However, the exact timing can vary depending on factors like skin type, age, and specific treatment goals.
