Laser Skin Treatments & Microneedling = Skin Goals

Let’s be honest—summer in Portland is sacred. The sun’s finally out, the patios are calling, and your whole “cute & breathable” wardrobe is having its moment.

But just because we’re soaking up the rays doesn’t mean we need to sacrifice our skin in the process.

So what’s the move? A treatment schedule that says:
“Sun, I love you… but you’re not about to wreck my glow.”

At Daela Cosmetic Tattoo Portland, we’ve got your summer skin covered with a glow-up plan that fits right into your sunshine-filled lifestyle.

We’re talking laser skin treatments, collagen-boosting microneedling, and the holy grail that is BioRePeel—all in one place, with expert care. Let’s break it down with Averie Hough of DAELA Portland:

Step One: Start With a PicoWay Resolve Laser Facial

Think of this as your pre-glow. PicoWay is one of our favorite laser skin treatments—a non-ablative laser that works beneath the surface to:

• Fade sun damage

• Brighten dull skin

• Smooth texture

• And boost collagen

All with zero downtime. That’s right—you don’t need to hide out after this one. No major peeling, no flaking, just a little pigment lifting (aka small dark spots fading away) as your skin does its thing.

✨ Bonus: You can totally do laser skin treatments in the summer. Especially here in the PNW, where SPF 30+, wide-brim hats, and golden hour adventures are practically lifestyle staples.

Hit your favorite brunch spot, browse a farmers market, sip an iced lavender latte—your skin will be healing in the background, glowing all the while.

Step Two: Microneedling (6 Weeks Later)

Once your skin’s had a chance to soak up all that laser magic, it’s time to double down with microneedling. This combo = the ultimate summer skin reset.

Microneedling = collagen-stimulating, texture-refining, fine-line-smoothing goodness.

They’re amazing on their own, but together? Power couple energy.
This is how you get that glass-skin, “I woke up like this” vibe—no filter, no makeup needed.

Why These Skin Treatments Work in Summer

Let’s bust the myth: laser skin treatments are not just for winter. When done correctly (with non-ablative lasers like PicoWay), and paired with smart sun habits, they’re completely summer-safe.

In fact, spacing them out through the season helps you stay on top of pigmentation, texture, and early signs of sun damage as they pop up—not months after. The same goes for microneedling, just keep your skin sun-safe!

The Skin Strategy: Be Consistent

This isn’t about hiding from the sun—it’s about working with it. With consistent care, your skin doesn’t just survive summer… it thrives.

Here’s the magic formula:

• ☀️ Early summer: Start strong with laser skin treatments like PicoWay

• ✨ Mid-summer: Glow-up time with microneedling + BioRePeel

• All season: Daily SPF, cute hats, shade breaks—and you’re golden

And just like that, your summer skin care plan goes from “hope for the best” to “glow goals unlocked.”
