Summer is a time for barbecues, lake days, patio brunches, and travel. It’s also a time when we’re more visible—more photos, more socializing, more skin showing. So it makes sense that many people start to think about aesthetic treatments this time of year.
But here’s the thing: looking and feeling your best this summer doesn’t require overdoing it. At HB Beauty in Bismarck, ND, we believe in subtle enhancements, personalized skincare, and supporting your unique features—not hiding them. If you’re considering treatments like microneedling, Botox, or a Hydrafacial this season, here’s our honest, no-pressure guide to getting glowing in a way that still feels like you.
The Power of Natural Beauty (Especially in Summer)
We see it every day—women and men of all ages who just want to look like a more rested, radiant version of themselves. Not frozen. Not overfilled. Just refreshed. That’s the HB Beauty philosophy.
Here’s why this approach matters even more during summer:
- More daylight = more scrutiny. Natural light reveals texture and tone more clearly, so your skin health and glow truly show.
- Heat + heavy products = no thanks. Lightweight, effective skincare routines and minimalist enhancements are perfect for hot weather.
- You’re more social. Whether it’s reunions, vacations, or weddings, this is the season to feel confident being seen—without worrying about looking "done."
Summer Skin Needs Are Different—Treat Accordingly
Between sun exposure, higher humidity, and more time spent outdoors, your summer skin needs a slightly different strategy. At HB Beauty, we focus on three core principles this time of year:
1. Hydrate + Protect
- Switch to lighter moisturizers like Skinbetter’s Hydration Boosting Cream or Hydrinity’s Hyaluronic Acid serum.
- Apply a mineral-based SPF daily (our top pick: Skinbetter’s Tone Smart SPF Compact—bonus, it doubles as light coverage).
2. Gently Refresh, Don’t Strip
- Ditch aggressive scrubs and opt for enzyme exfoliants or light acids like Vivant’s Mandelic toner.
- Our summer-safe chemical peels help brighten dull skin without compromising your barrier.
3. Support Your Skin’s Natural Repair Process
- Microneedling with PRF can boost collagen and heal texture and tone.
- Hydrafacials restore moisture, clear out debris, and leave you glowing.
What Treatments Are Safe—and Smart—for Summer?
1. Hydrafacials
Think of these as a reset button for your skin. Great pre- or post-vacation, wedding prep, or anytime your skin feels congested or dull. No downtime. Just clean, hydrated skin.
2. Microneedling (with or without PRF)
Done with proper aftercare, microneedling is perfectly safe in summer. It stimulates your body’s natural collagen production and can improve acne scars, fine lines, and tone.
3. Botox & Dysport
Whether targeting forehead lines or a subtle brow lift, neuromodulators help soften wrinkles without changing your natural expressions.
4. Lip Filler
A little volume can make a big difference, especially if done conservatively. Our Lip Filler treatments in Bismarck focus on balance and proportion, never overfilled looks.
5. Weight Loss Support
Summer can be a motivating time to focus on wellness. We offer patient-guided weight loss programs designed to support metabolism, reduce inflammation, and help you feel your best.
How to Know What’s Right for You
We don’t believe in cookie-cutter beauty. Everyone’s skin and goals are different. Here’s how we approach every consultation:
- We listen first: What do you want to change—or not change?
- We educate: You’ll understand exactly what a treatment does, what it costs, and what results to expect.
- We customize: Whether it’s a single treatment or a full skincare plan, we tailor it to your lifestyle.
- We support: You can trust our honest recommendations. No pressure, ever.
