Summer in the West Valley means sunshine, vineyard weekends, patio dinners, and long days spent outdoors — but warmer weather can also take a toll on your skin. Increased sun exposure, heat, and dehydration often lead to dullness, pigmentation, and premature aging. According to Michelle Corey, owner of Boutique MedSpa, radiant summer skin starts with consistency, hydration, and treatments that support healthy skin from within.
One of Michelle’s favorite summertime treatments is Micro-needling with SkinPen Precision, a collagen-stimulating treatment that rejuvenates the skin naturally without heat or chemicals. Safe for all skin tones and skin types, SkinPen helps improve fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and overall texture with little to no downtime. Michelle especially loves pairing the treatment with Ariessence Pure PDGF+ (growth factor serum) for enhanced healing and glow.
For clients wanting a brighter complexion fast, the VI Peel remains another seasonal favorite. With visible results in as little as seven days, the peel targets sun damage, hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne, acne scarring, and signs of aging while revealing smoother, more radiant skin.
When it comes to everyday skincare, Michelle believes there are three essentials everyone should focus on during the summer months: sunscreen, Vitamin C, and hydration.
Her favorite picks include SkinMedica Total Defense + Repair - a sunscreen essential - SkinMedica Vitamin C + E Complex - a vitamin C serum - to help protect, brighten, and support collagen production. Michelle also recommends staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water, eating hydrating foods like watermelon and cucumbers, and using a daily moisturizer suited to your skin type.
