Albuquerque’s high desert climate can be especially challenging for the skin during winter. Low humidity, cool temperatures, and indoor heating pull moisture from the surface, often causing dry skin and irritation by January. At Freya’s Lair Medical Spa, our team blends European spa principles with modern aesthetic treatments to help patients reclaim soft, hydrated skin even when our ABQ winters are hard on the skin.
Why Winter Skin Needs Extra Support
Dry winter skin can lose its natural smoothness as the moisture barrier becomes stressed. Many people notice rough patches, increased sensitivity, or a dull complexion as the skin struggles to retain hydration. These concerns often build gradually toward the end of the year, making January a great time for targeted treatments that renew the surface and replenish moisture.
Custom Facials for Moisture Renewal
Freya’s Lair offers a variety of facials to refresh and hydrate dry skin. These treatments help remove surface buildup, soothe irritation, and infuse the skin with nourishing ingredients that support long-lasting moisture. We also offer facial memberships that include one premium facial every month. This can be a budget-friendly way to keep your skin healthy and glowing all year.
Medical-Grade Skincare
A personalized regimen using medical-grade skincare helps strengthen the skin barrier and maintain hydration between treatments. The premium formulas from leading companies such as SkinMedica® and EltaMD® deliver next-generation ingredients that deeply rehydrate dry or sensitive winter skin while supporting smoother texture and long-lasting moisture retention. Our team can recommend a custom regimen to help you achieve beautifully soft, pampered skin all year long.
Skinvive for Hydrated, Dewy-Looking Skin
Skinvive, a Juvéderm® product made of hyaluronic acid, is the first product of its kind. It’s not a typical dermal filler: Skinvive provides injectable hydration in tiny microdroplets to instantly improve skin smoothness and radiance. It works particularly well for patients experiencing dullness or dehydration, helping the skin appear plumper and more refreshed during the driest months.
IPL for Clarity and Tone
IPL can address redness or discoloration that often becomes more prominent on dry winter skin. This light-based treatment helps brighten the complexion and support a more even, healthy-looking tone.
