Laser and light treatments work by targeting colour — the red of a capillary, the brown of a sun spot. Tanned or sun-exposed skin competes with that target, which is why the same treatment that is elegant in July can be ill-advised in January.
Winter in the western suburbs is short and mild, but the UV index drops enough to open a genuine treatment window. Redness and visible capillaries, pigmentation accumulated over summer, and skin-needling courses all belong to these months.
We plan courses around your sun exposure, not against it.
The practical advice is simple: if a course of laser is in your future, the consultation belongs in early winter, so the sessions land while the sun is low. By the time the sun is back over the pines in spring, the work should be done.
