Post-Holiday Skin Reset: The Benefits of Professional Facials & Peels

January 27, 2026

The holidays in Burlington are always a whirlwind—late nights, festive foods, holiday makeup, and close-quarters heating that can wreak havoc on your skin. By the time January rolls around, many of us are left with dull, congested, or breakout-prone skin in desperate need of some TLC. If you’re searching for the ultimate post-holiday skin reset, professional facials and chemical peels at Modern You Medical Aesthetics offer the perfect solution to restore your glow and start the new year feeling confident and refreshed.


Why Does Post-Holiday Skin Need Extra Care?


After weeks of holiday celebrations throughout Burlington and the surrounding areas, your skin may be paying the price. Changes in routine, cold Ontario air, dry indoor heating, and excess sugar can all contribute to a lacklustre complexion. You might notice:


- Stubborn breakouts or congestion

- Flaky, dehydrated skin

- Uneven skin tone and texture

- Makeup not sitting right

- More pronounced fine lines


These are common concerns for many Burlington residents once the last celebratory confetti has settled. January is the ideal time to commit to professional skincare—especially if your goal is long-term skin health and a fresh start for 2026.


What Makes Professional Facials Different Than At-Home Care?


Absolutely! Professional facials at Modern You Medical Aesthetics are fully customized, medical-grade treatments using advanced techniques and products not available over the counter. Our experienced team in Burlington tailors each session to your specific skin concerns, ensuring deeper hydration, exfoliation, and rejuvenation that you just can’t achieve at home. Plus, expert hands can safely extract impurities and optimize skin health without irritation or risk.


Key Benefits of Post-Holiday Facials & Peels in Burlington


Now’s the time to refresh your skin with a results-driven program at Modern You. Here’s how our professional facials and peels stand out this season:


Deep Cleansing & Exfoliation 

Our Glow on the Go Signature Facial uses ZO Skin Health products to deeply cleanse and gently exfoliate your skin, banishing lingering impurities and encouraging cell renewal.


Personalized Hydration 

Winter in Ontario can leave even oily skin thirsty. Our Burlington facials are customized to deeply hydrate and replenish, using medical-grade serums selected for your skin’s unique needs.


Targeted Concerns 

From breakouts to hyperpigmentation, our chemical peels and advanced facials target stubborn post-holiday issues. Professional peels help:


- Fade dark spots caused by sun exposure

- Soften fine lines and texture

- Unclog congested pores

- Brighten overall skin tone


Minimal Downtime, Maximum Results 

Our gentle peels and facials, including dermaplaning for instant smoothness or our lunchtime Glow on the Go Facial, fit seamlessly into busy Burlington lifestyles. There’s little to no downtime—just revitalized, camera-ready skin.


Seasonal Protection 

Did you know that professional exfoliation actually helps your skin barrier recover and boosts the effectiveness of your home regimen? When combined with SPF, these treatments are the perfect antidote to winter’s harsh conditions and the effects of late-night celebrating.


When Is the Best Time for a Chemical Peel or Facial in Burlington?


January is peak season for facials and peels in the Burlington area. With less sun exposure and fewer outdoor activities, your skin is less prone to UV damage, making it the safest and most effective time for these treatments. Whether you’re prepping for Valentine’s events or just want to look and feel your best at work, a post-holiday skin reset is the perfect place to start.


How to Choose the Right Facial or Peel at Modern You


Our expert aesthetics team guides you through a complimentary consultation to choose the ideal treatment for your post-holiday needs, such as:


- Glow on the Go Signature Facial for a quick refresh

- Dermaplaning for events or pregnant clients

- Medical-grade chemical peels for deeper transformation

- Vampire Facial (Microneedling + PRP) for lasting rejuvenation


We’ll help you create a customized plan that fits your goals, schedule, and skin type.
