Summer is one of our favorite times of year in Alabama. Whether you’re spending time at the lake, on the golf course, at the ball field, on vacation, or simply enjoying the outdoors, summer is a great reminder to focus on protecting your skin while making memories.
At Dermatologists of Birmingham, our goal is to help patients enjoy summer safely while maintaining healthy, beautiful skin.
Schedule Your Skin Check
One of the most important things you can do for your skin this summer is schedule an annual skin examination with a Board-Certified Dermatologist.
Skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer, and early detection is often the key to successful treatment. If you have noticed a new spot, a changing mole, or simply have not had a skin check in the past year, summer is a great time to schedule an appointment.
Our physicians personally evaluate and treat medical dermatology patients, ensuring you receive care from an experienced Board-Certified Dermatologist who can diagnose and treat skin cancer, precancerous lesions, acne, eczema, psoriasis, hair loss, and other skin concerns.
Protect Your Skin
Sunscreen remains one of the easiest and most effective ways to protect your skin from sun damage, premature aging, dark spots, and skin cancer.
Our team loves EltaMD sunscreen products because they provide excellent protection while feeling comfortable enough for everyday wear. Whether you’re heading to the beach, the lake, the golf course, or simply spending time outdoors, daily sunscreen use should be part of your routine.
In addition to sunscreen, remember to:
- Wear a wide-brimmed hat when outdoors.
- Seek shade during peak sun hours.
- Reapply sunscreen every two hours when outdoors.
- Protect your lips, ears, neck, and scalp.
- Wear protective clothing whenever possible.
As part of our June Summer Essentials promotion, patients who spend $150 on qualifying EltaMD products will receive a complimentary EltaMD Sun Hat while supplies last.
Summer Confidence Starts Here
Summer is also a popular time for patients to refresh their appearance before vacations, reunions, weddings, and special events.
Many patients choose treatments such as Botox and CoolSculpting to help them look and feel their best during the summer months. Our cosmetic services are physician-directed and designed to provide natural-looking results that enhance your appearance without looking overdone.
During Father’s Day Week, we’re celebrating Bro Week. Patients who purchase Botox or CoolSculpting treatments during Bro Week will receive a complimentary EltaMD sunscreen.
Whether you’re interested in reducing unwanted fat, softening lines and wrinkles, or simply learning more about your options, our team is happy to help.

Summer should be spent making memories—not worrying about preventable skin damage.
