Sun Damage

Advanced Non-Surgical Treatments in Harrison, NY with Dr. Joelle Rogal

Sun exposure may leave a lasting impression—one that often appears as fine lines, pigmentation, dull texture, or premature aging. Over time, UV damage breaks down collagen, weakens elasticity, and creates uneven skin tone. If you’re looking to restore radiance and improve the health of your skin, Dr. Joelle Rogal offers state-of-the-art treatments tailored to reverse visible signs of sun damage.

As a double board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Rogal combines aesthetic precision with medical-grade technology to help patients achieve refreshed, healthy-looking skin with minimal downtime.

Common Signs of Sun Damage

UV-related skin damage is often more than skin-deep. You may notice:

  • Brown spots or hyperpigmentation (sunspots, melasma)
  • Fine lines and wrinkles from collagen loss
  • Uneven, rough, or leathery skin texture
  • Redness, blotchiness, or inflammation
  • Skin laxity and reduced elasticity

Dr. Rogal offers personalized assessments to identify both visible and underlying sun damage before creating a targeted treatment plan.

Preventing Further Sun Damage

Once skin has been damaged, it’s critical to protect it moving forward. Dr. Rogal recommends:

  • Wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) daily
  • Seeking shade between peak sun hours (10 a.m. – 4 p.m.)
  • Wearing protective hats and UV-blocking clothing
  • Using antioxidant serums to neutralize free radical damage
  • Staying well-hydrated to support the skin barrier

Preventative care paired with clinical treatments ensures longer-lasting, healthier results.

Treatment Options for Sun-Damaged Skin

While sun damage cannot be completely erased, there are effective solutions to dramatically improve tone, texture, and vibrancy. Dr. Rogal curates each treatment based on skin type, degree of damage, and patient goals.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

Removes damaged skin layers, stimulates collagen, and evens out pigmentation. Ideal for moderate to advanced damage.

Chemical Peels

Helps shed the outermost damaged layer of skin and promotes cell turnover for a brighter, smoother complexion.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Therapy

Targets brown spots and redness with light energy. Restores skin clarity and tone with minimal downtime.

Microdermabrasion

Polishes away rough texture and fine surface imperfections. Gentle yet effective with no recovery time.

Hydrating and Antioxidant Facials

Replenish moisture, calm inflammation, and support the skin’s healing response after sun exposure.

Customized Skincare Plans

Medical-grade skincare with ingredients like retinoids, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and peptides to rebuild the skin barrier and fade visible sun damage.

What to Expect from Treatment

Dr. Rogal’s approach prioritizes natural-looking results, safety, and long-term skin health. Most treatments are quick and performed in-office with little to no downtime. Results are often visible after one session, with full improvement continuing over time. Combination treatments may be recommended for more advanced concerns.
