Why Winter Is the Best Time for Skin Repair
Cold weather, indoor heat, and dry air all take a toll on your skin. Hydration levels drop, collagen production slows, and skin can start to look flaky, dull, or uneven. It's also the time of year when most people wear less SPF and layer on more makeup—making skin congestion and damage more likely.
That’s why winter is the perfect season to invest in deep skin renewal treatments. With less sun exposure, your skin has more time to heal, and treatments like microneedling + exosomes can work at their full potential without added environmental stress.
What Is Microneedling with Dermapen™?
Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) uses tiny, controlled punctures in the skin to stimulate your body’s natural healing response. At Glo Skin & Medspa, we use the advanced Dermapen™ system, which allows for ultra-precise treatment with minimal discomfort.
Here’s what microneedling helps with:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Uneven texture and tone
- Acne scarring and large pores
- Mild pigmentation and sun damage
- Skin laxity and dullness
Microneedling encourages the skin to rebuild stronger and smoother by stimulating collagen and elastin, the key to youthful skin.
What Are Exosomes and Why Do They Matter?
Exosomes are naturally occurring messengers derived from stem cells. They contain growth factors, peptides, and genetic material that signal your skin to repair, regenerate, and rebuild more efficiently.
When applied immediately after microneedling, exosomes penetrate deeply into the skin through the microchannels created during treatment. This allows them to:
- Accelerate healing
- Reduce redness and inflammation
- Boost collagen synthesis
- Enhance overall results
At Glo Skin & Medspa, we use Exoie™ exosomes, a high-quality formulation designed for post-procedure skin repair and renewal. The result? A faster recovery and more radiant, healthy-looking skin.
Why These Two Treatments Work Better Together
Microneedling already triggers your skin to heal and rebuild, but adding exosomes supercharges that response. Think of exosomes as the signal boosters that tell your skin to produce even more collagen and regenerate faster.
This pairing helps:
- Shorten recovery time
- Improve skin texture more effectively
- Deliver longer-lasting, more visible results
- Make winter skin glow despite the weather
You’ll see improved hydration, firmness, and radiance, without the downtime associated with more aggressive treatments.
What to Expect from the Treatment Process
Here’s what your appointment may include:
- Consultation to assess your skin and confirm candidacy
- Dermapen™ microneedling session tailored to your goals
- Application of Exoie™ exosomes post-treatment
- Post-care instructions and recommended follow-up timeline

Many clients report that their skin heals faster and glows sooner with exosomes added into the mix.
