How to Prep Your Skin for Spring: Dermatologist-Recommended Tips

As winter fades and warmer days approach, it’s the perfect time to refresh your skincare routine. At MDCS Dermatology, we’re here to help you transition your skincare for spring with simple, dermatologist-approved tips.

1. Lighten Up Your Moisturizer

During colder months, heavy creams help lock in moisture. But as humidity rises, it’s best to switch to a lighter, oil-free moisturizer that hydrates without clogging pores.

2. Don’t Skip the Sunscreen

With longer days and more sun exposure, daily sunscreen is a must—even if you’re indoors. Choose a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher and reapply every two hours when outdoors.

3. Exfoliate Gently

Spring is a great time to slough off dull, dry winter skin. Incorporate gentle exfoliation 1-2 times a week to reveal smoother, brighter skin.

4. Address Pigmentation & Skin Concerns

If you’re noticing sun spots, uneven tone, or lingering acne scars, spring is an ideal time to explore treatments like chemical peels, microneedling, or laser therapy.
