What anti-aging skin care regimen is best for Portlanders?
The median Portlander age is just over 36 – a time in life when most people are beginning to see signs of aging. It is also an ideal time to start a regimen that keeps the complexion looking youthful. Dr. Adam Maddox tailors anti-aging skin care to your unique needs, for the best results.
Active lifestyles
The Pacific Northwest is known for its stunning natural abundance. Most residents take advantage of outdoor sports such as:
- Angling
- Bicycling
- Birding
- Golf
- Hiking
- Kite-boarding
- Rock climbing
- Skiing
- Snowboarding
- Whitewater rafting
While these pursuits are terrific for mind and body fitness, they can impact skin health.
Four seasons of skin challenges
The sun doesn’t always shine in Portland, but there is still ample risk of UV exposure. An estimated 80 percent of the sun’s ultraviolet radiation penetrates clouds and fog. Sun is also reflected from snow, intensifying the skin damaging effects.
Portland’s fine spring weather with flowers abloom, attracts hikers and bikers. Even with pleasant temperatures in the 50s and 60s, the humidity during this rainy season contributes to oily skin outbreaks. Summer temperatures reach triple digits occasionally. These long days with little rain are prime beach time when sun protection is essential. Autumn’s cooler weather may draw you to the wooded trails but watch for insect and environmental rashes. Wind burn and chapping are common in winter, along with dry skin from indoor heating.
Dr. Maddox and his team are experienced in customizing anti-aging treatment plans to keep skin looking great while you enjoy all the area offers. It starts with the best daily care products for your skin type and lifestyle. A personalized combination of treatments such as laser, light, and other energy therapies; Botox and injectable dermal fillers; platelet rich plasma; and hormone replacement therapy helps to keep skin firm and flawless.
