Can You Get Laser Treatments in the Summer?
When it comes to skincare, timing matters just as much as technique — especially with laser treatments. One of the most common questions we hear is: “Can I still get laser in the summer?”
The short answer: sometimes — but you need to be smart about it.
At Aethereal Medical Spa & Wellness, our priority is delivering safe, transformative results year-round. Here’s what you should know.
❓ Why Are Traditional Laser Treatments Risky in Summer?
Most traditional lasers work by targeting pigment in the skin. That’s where summer sun exposure complicates things. Tanned or sun-exposed skin can increase the risk of:
Hyperpigmentation (dark spots)
Hypopigmentation (light spots)
Photosensitivity
Irritation or delayed healing
Because your skin is more vulnerable in summer, many providers recommend waiting until fall or winter for certain laser treatments.
❓ Is There a Safe Alternative to Lasers in Summer?
Yes! The good news is that not all resurfacing treatments are off-limits.
At Aethereal Medical Spa & Wellness, we offer Alma Opus Plasma RF — a skin-rejuvenation option that’s much more summer-friendly.
Unlike traditional lasers, Opus Plasma:
Uses plasma + radiofrequency energy instead of light.
Does not target pigment, making it safe for all skin types.
Creates controlled micro-injuries with minimal heat diffusion.
Has less downtime than fractional lasers.
Is more compatible with seasonal sun exposure (with proper care).
So, if you’ve been putting off skin resurfacing until cooler months — you don’t have to anymore.
❓ Can Any Lasers Be Done in Summer?
Some laser services (like laser hair removal) can still be done safely in summer, but precautions matter. Factors to consider include:
Your skin type and tone
Your recent sun exposure
Your treatment goals and timeline
How carefully you’ll follow post-care instructions
The safest way to decide? Book a consultation with our licensed providers before scheduling any summer laser service.
