Summer Safe Treatments and Sun Etiquette Tips from Nurse Jacklyn
As the summer sun brightens our days and the weather heats up, it's important to take care of your skin. Remember, there are medical-grade treatments that are safe during the summer months with proper precautions.
Today, Nurse Jacklyn wants to share her expert tips for safe summer treatments and sun etiquette to help your skin stay healthy and protected.
Summer-Safe Treatment: ClearSilk Laser
ClearSilk is a gentle, non-ablative laser treatment that stimulates collagen and reduces inflammation in the skin, improving overall skin integrity. During the procedure, ClearSilk delivers heat deep into the skin, promoting fibroblast activity and the body’s natural healing process to create new collagen, elastin, and fibrin.
How Does It Work?
ClearSilk penetrates beyond the skin’s surface to target the deep dermis at 1064nm, where collagen, elastin, and fibrin reside. The energy bypasses the epidermis, leaving the skin’s surface untouched and fully intact. Bulk heating at the deep dermal level helps repair damaged cells and improve cellular function.
Why Is It Safe?
Unlike other lasers, ClearSilk does not target skin colour or affect the surface of the skin, making it ideal for summer when sun exposure is higher. It remodels and repairs damaged cells, strengthens skin integrity, and reduces inflammation, leaving the skin healthier and more resilient.

Medical-Grade Sunscreens for Everyday Protection
Most people have a hard time finding a sunscreen that they are compliant with, they are often too sticky, too greasy or have that typical sunscreen scent. Try one of Jacklyn’s favourite medical-grade, mineral-based sunscreens. “Personally, I use all three of these for different occasions".
- SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion UV Defense SPF 50 - This is great for everyday wear. Lightweight. Even tone. Great for those who prefer a tinted SPF and don’t wear makeup.
- EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46 - This one is ideal for those with sensitive, breakout-prone skin. It is oil-free and helps to calm the skin with niacinamide.
- EltaMD UV Sport SPF 50 - Ideal for sports, swimming, biking, and boating, among others. Durable and water-resistant.
