The holidays are a whirlwind of excitement, but the stress that comes with it can sneak up on us. Between late-night gatherings, indulgent meals, and the rush of finding perfect gifts, it’s easy to forget about our own health. However, stress doesn’t just affect how you feel—it can also take a serious toll on your skin and overall well-being.

This holiday season, don’t let the busyness get the best of you. Here are some things to avoid and tips to help you maintain both your general health and glowing skin.

How Stress Impacts Your Skin and Health

When we’re stressed, our body releases more cortisol, the “stress hormone,” which can lead to inflammation. This may cause breakouts, redness, and an overall dull complexion. Stress can also contribute to other issues, such as digestive problems, headaches, and fatigue. While it’s easy to get caught up in the holiday madness, it’s important to keep your stress levels in check to protect both your skin and body.

What to Avoid:

...

As the holiday season approaches, it’s the perfect time to refresh your skin and feel confident for all the festivities ahead. Whether you're planning family gatherings, parties, or just want to look your best, Hidden Door Medspa offers a range of treatments designed to give you that holiday glow. Here are some of the top treatments you should consider booking this fall to get ready for the busy season.

As the summer fun winds down and we head into the cozy days of fall, many of us start noticing the not-so-welcome souvenirs from our time in the sun—hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, and sun damage. At Hidden Door Medspa, we know that while summer is all about relaxation and enjoying the outdoors, it can leave your skin in need of some extra love. But don’t worry—fall is the perfect time to give your skin the TLC it needs to bounce back and glow again!

Understanding Summer Skin Damage

Summer skin damage can show up as dark spots, uneven patches, and a complexion that’s just not as bright as it could be. Too much sun can increase melanin production, leading to those annoying dark spots. Plus, UV rays can break down the collagen and elastin in your skin, making it look a bit older than you'd like. But the good news? With the right treatments and a solid skincare routine, you can easily fix this damage and get back to your radiant self.

Botox has become world renowned cosmetic procedure, known for its ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, many people are still unsure if they are suitable candidates for this treatment. At Hidden Door Med Spa, we believe in providing our clients with the information they need to make informed decisions about their beauty treatments.

What is Botox?

Botox is a neurotoxin derived from clostridium botulinum bacteria. When used in small, controlled doses, it can temporarily paralyze muscles, which helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Botox is most commonly used on areas such as the forehead, around the eyes (crow’s feet), and between the eyebrows (frown lines). The procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes just a few...

As the summer heat intensifies in Texas, maintaining hydrated, healthy skin becomes a challenge. The scorching sun, high temperatures, and dry air can strip your skin of its natural moisture, leading to dryness, flakiness, and a lackluster complexion. However, with the right skincare routine and lifestyle adjustments, you can keep your skin supple and radiant all summer long. At Hidden Door, we offer practical tips for maintaining moisture-rich skin, and recommend effective products and treatments available at our Med Spa.

Understanding Skin Dehydration

Dehydrated skin lacks water, making it appear dull and tired. Unlike dry skin, which is a skin type, dehydration is a condition that can affect any skin type. The intense Texas heat can exacerbate dehydration by increasing water loss through sweat and exposure to air conditioning. Signs of dehydrated skin include tightness, increased sensitivity, fine lines, and a rough texture. Addressing these issues requires a multi-faceted approach, combining skincare products, professional treatments, and...

As the days grow longer and warmer, our thoughts turn to outdoor adventures, beach days, and soaking up the sun. But before you dive headfirst into summer fun, it's essential to prepare your skin for the seasonal changes ahead. From protecting against harmful UV rays to maintaining hydration levels, proper skincare is key to keeping your complexion radiant and healthy all summer long. In this ultimate guide, we'll explore expert tips and treatments to help you achieve your best summer skin yet.

1. Sun Protection is Non-Negotiable

Let's start with the most crucial step in summer skincare: sun protection. UV rays from the sun can cause premature aging, sunburn, and even skin cancer. That's why wearing sunscreen every day, regardless of the weather, is essential. Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and apply it generously to all exposed skin, including your face, neck, and hands. Reapply every two hours, especially if...

As spring arrives in Fort Worth, the blooming flowers and budding trees, while beautiful, bring a less welcome guest: seasonal allergies. While most people associate seasonal allergies with symptoms like sneezing, itchy eyes, and a runny nose, many overlook how allergies can also affect the skin. At Hidden Door, we understand the challenges our clients face with their skin during this season, and we're here to help.

Understanding the Impact of Allergies on Skin

Seasonal allergies are triggered by allergens such as pollen, mold, and dust, which can also aggravate your skin. Allergens can cause inflammation, leading to symptoms such as redness, itching, and swelling. For those with sensitive skin, this can exacerbate existing skin conditions like eczema or rosacea.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), the key to managing skin affected by allergies is first to recognize the impact...

Recent surveys have shed light on the concerning attitudes and behaviors regarding sunscreen use, a crucial factor in preventing skin cancer and maintaining skin health.

This lack of concern is particularly pronounced among younger generations, with 71% of Gen Z adults unfamiliar with sunburn risks and many holding misconceptions about tanning.

• The aesthetic laser market industry’s expected to hit $2 billion in the next 8 years. A rising market shows a greater need for treatments like laser resurfacing. Although the treatments vary depending on your skin condition, there are two main laser treatments: ablative and non-ablative. Ablative lasers, or CO2 laser resurfacing, removes dead skin layers.
