Most physicians would agree that fall and winter are the best seasons to perform laser resurfacing. A big part of that has to do with sun avoidance, both before and after the laser resurfacing procedure. During the colder months, most people are indoors and the daylight hours are less, minimizing sun exposure. If you show up for your procedure with sunburn, the procedure will be cancelled. Sunburned skin does not heal well. However, if you live in parts of the country like Miami, FL where avoiding the sun any time of the year is nearly impossible, then there is not perfect time of the year to have laser resurfacing done. No matter what time of the year you have laser resurfacing performed, it is important that you continue to take care of your skin by always wearing sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 30 and avoiding direct sun exposure.
