Seasonal Skincare Tips: Preparing Your Skin for Summer & Winter

As the seasons change, so should your skincare. From the intense sun of the Gold Coast to the cool breezes of the Sunshine Coast, your skin faces new challenges all year long. At Dr. Umed Cosmetics, we believe your skincare routine should adapt to suit your environment, your skin type, and the season.

Whether you’re aiming to smooth fine lines, reduce pigmentation, or simply keep your skin hydrated and fresh, we’ve got the treatments and advice to help you glow, every season of the year.

Summer Skincare: Bright, Calm & Protected

1. SPF Is Non-Negotiable

With some of the world’s strongest UV exposure, Australians can’t afford to skip sun protection. Use SPF 50+ daily, especially in high-sun areas like Hope Island, Surfers Paradise, and Byron Bay. It’s the best defence against sun damage, pigmentation, and premature ageing.

2. Clear and Correct with BBL Laser

Broad Band Light (BBL) laser treatments are perfect for reducing redness, sun spots, and uneven tone. Popular in our Gold Coast clinic, BBL treatments can help your skin reset before or after summer holidays.

3. Control Sweat with Confidence

Concerned about excessive sweating? Treatments like Miradry, offered in areas including Helensvale and Hope Island, can help you stay dry all summer long, no more stress about underarm stains.

4. Hydrate for That Summer Glow

Swap heavy moisturisers for water-based serums and keep skin plump with V2 Beauty Booster injections or IV vitamin therapy, available in our Sunshine Coast locations.

5. Prevent Wrinkles Before They Appear

Summer squinting can deepen forehead lines and crow’s feet. Age Defying Treatments, available in Coomera, Paddington, and Greenacre, can smooth expression lines before they settle in.

Winter Skincare: Rebuild, Rejuvenate & Restore

1. Reinforce the Skin Barrier

Winter weather strips your skin of moisture. Use barrier-supporting creams and consider LED skin therapy sessions in Ipswich or Logan City to boost collagen and calm inflammation.

2. Rebuild Volume Where It’s Lost

Cold air can make your face appear tired or hollow. We recommend Volume Enhancers for the cheeks, lips, or under-eyes, available at clinics in Brisbane and Sunshine Coast, for natural rejuvenation.

3. Boost Repair with PRP

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy, also called the vampire facial, uses your body’s own growth factors to brighten and renew. Winter is the ideal time to book PRP in Surfers Paradise, Hope Island, or Helensvale.

5. Treat & Nourish Lips

If you’re treating acne scars, fine lines, or texture concerns, winter is the perfect time to start. Try microneedling or RF microneedling in Coomera, Paddington, or Helensvale, or combine them with a PDO thread lift in Sunshine Coast for maximum firming.

4. Go Deeper with Microneedling or RF

Cold weather = cracked lips. Book subtle lip fillers in Ipswich, Logan City, or Gold Coast to restore moisture and shape. Pair with a rich balm for long-lasting softness.

Skincare Myths to Stop Believing

“You don’t need sunscreen in winter.”

UV rays are always present in Australia — even when it’s cold or cloudy.

“Tanning helps clear up acne.”

It might seem helpful short-term, but tanning can lead to more breakouts and lasting pigmentation.

“If your skin is dry, drink more water.”

Hydration is important, but topical moisture and in-clinic treatments like V2 Beauty Boosters are what really make the difference.

“Age Defying Treatments are only for older people.”

Not true. Many people in their 20s and 30s opt for preventative Cosmetic Treatments to delay the onset of fine lines.

“Skincare treatments are just for women.”

Absolutely not, our cosmetic treatments for men in Gold Coast and Brisbane are growing in popularity every month. Healthy skin is for everyone.

“One facial solves everything.”

While you may see improvements after one session, lasting results require a personalised skin plan, including at-home care and professional treatments.
