Year-Long Skin Series

The Year-Long Skin Series
Correct. Maintain. Prevent.
All Year.

The Year-Long Skin Series is Ovation's signature annual protocol — a structured 12-month plan that alternates intensive correction with gentle maintenance for continuously optimized skin health. Instead of getting treatments when damage becomes noticeable, the Year-Long Series keeps your skin on a continuous improvement trajectory. Two BBL + Halo sessions provide deep correction — clearing accumulated pigmentation and resurfacing texture. Three BBL + Moxi sessions provide gentle maintenance — sustaining gene-expression benefits and preventing damage from accumulating between corrective sessions. Five total appointments across twelve months. Each session builds on the last. Your skin never deteriorates between treatments because the next session arrives before improvement fades. This is how professional skin management works — not reactive treatment, but proactive, structured, continuous care.

The Strategy

Correction + Maintenance = Continuous Results

The Year-Long Series eliminates the cycle of improvement and deterioration. Corrective sessions reset; maintenance sessions sustain. Your skin is always improving, never declining.

🔮
BBL + Halo Sessions
Intensive Correction (2x/year)
BBL Hero clears accumulated pigmentation and vascular irregularities. Halo's hybrid fractional laser resurfaces texture, stimulates deep collagen, and corrects pores and fine lines. These intensive sessions reset the baseline — clearing damage that gentle maintenance cannot address. 3-5 days recovery per session.
  • Maximum color correction with BBL broadband light
  • Deep resurfacing with Halo's dual-wavelength hybrid laser
  • Collagen stimulation that continues building for 3 months
  • Positioned in fall/winter for optimal recovery and UV avoidance
✨
BBL + Moxi Sessions
Gentle Maintenance (3x/year)
BBL Hero maintains gene-expression benefits and clears any new pigmentation before it accumulates. Moxi's non-ablative laser gently refreshes texture and cellular turnover. These maintenance sessions prevent deterioration between corrective sessions — sustaining results with minimal downtime. 1-3 days recovery per session.
  • Stanford-validated gene expression benefits from regular BBL
  • Gentle non-ablative texture maintenance with Moxi
  • Prevents damage accumulation between corrective sessions
  • 1-3 days mild recovery — minimal schedule disruption
The Annual Protocol

Year-Long Series Schedule

Five sessions across 12 months — alternating between intensive correction and gentle maintenance for continuous skin optimization.

1
Session 1 — January
BBL + Halo (Corrective)
Start the year with intensive correction. BBL clears holiday-season pigment accumulation. Halo resurfaces for fresh, smooth texture. Deep collagen stimulation begins. 3-5 days recovery.
2
Session 2 — March/April
BBL + Moxi (Maintenance)
First maintenance session sustains January's correction and addresses any new spring pigmentation. Moxi gently refreshes texture. Gene expression benefits continue building. 1-3 days recovery.
3
Session 3 — June/July
BBL + Moxi (Maintenance)
Mid-year maintenance clears summer UV damage before it accumulates. BBL targets new sun spots; Moxi refreshes texture affected by heat and humidity. Critical session for Houston's intense summer.
4
Session 4 — September/October
BBL + Halo (Corrective)
Fall corrective session addresses cumulative summer damage. BBL clears the season's pigmentation. Halo delivers deep resurfacing as UV exposure decreases. 3-5 days recovery.
5
Session 5 — November/December
BBL + Moxi (Maintenance)
Final maintenance session sustains the fall correction and preps skin for the holiday season. You finish the year with optimized, glowing skin — ready to repeat the cycle.
Why Year-Long Series

Protocol Advantages

📈
Continuous Improvement
Your skin is always on an upward trajectory. Five sessions across 12 months means your next treatment arrives before results fade — eliminating the deterioration cycle.
🧬
Maximized Gene Expression
Regular BBL treatments (5x/year) maximize the Stanford-demonstrated gene expression reversal. Your skin cells consistently express more youthful gene patterns.
🔄
Balanced Correction + Maintenance
Two intensive sessions address deep concerns; three gentle sessions prevent accumulation. The right ratio of correction to maintenance for sustainable results.
📅
Structured Planning
A planned annual protocol eliminates decision fatigue. Your treatments are scheduled ahead of time — you never have to decide 'is it time for another treatment?' because the answer is always yes.
💰
Prevention Economics
Regular maintenance prevents damage accumulation — which means less intensive correction needed over time. By year 2-3, many clients shift to a lighter protocol. Prevention is always less expensive than correction.
🏖️
Houston Climate Optimized
The schedule accounts for Houston's UV patterns — intensive correction in lower-UV months, maintenance during high-UV season. Designed specifically for year-round sun exposure environments.
Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Year-Long Skin Series?+
The Year-Long Skin Series is Ovation's signature annual skin health protocol. It alternates between intensive corrective sessions (BBL + Halo) and gentle maintenance sessions (BBL + Moxi) throughout the year, totaling 5 treatments across 12 months. This structured approach ensures your skin is continuously improving — never accumulating damage between treatments.
What does the schedule look like?+
A typical Year-Long Series includes 2 BBL + Halo sessions (intensive correction) and 3 BBL + Moxi sessions (gentle maintenance), scheduled approximately every 10-12 weeks. The Halo sessions are typically positioned in fall and winter when UV exposure is lower and recovery is more comfortable. Moxi sessions fill the gaps.
How is this different from just getting treatments as needed?+
Ad-hoc treatments address damage after it's accumulated. The Year-Long Series prevents accumulation in the first place. Regular scheduled treatments maintain the gene-expression benefits Stanford demonstrated with BBL, keep collagen stimulation continuous, and ensure pigmentation and texture never deteriorate significantly between visits. Prevention is always more effective and less expensive than correction.
Can the protocol be customized?+
Absolutely. The Year-Long Series is a framework, not a rigid schedule. Your provider adjusts the ratio of Halo to Moxi sessions based on your skin's needs. If you have more aggressive damage, you might start with 3 Halo + 2 Moxi sessions. If your skin is in good baseline condition, 1 Halo + 4 Moxi may be appropriate. The protocol evolves as your skin improves.
What results can I expect over a full year?+
By the end of year one, clients typically see significant improvement in pigmentation, texture, tone uniformity, pore size, and fine lines. Skin looks consistently healthy rather than cycling between post-treatment improvement and between-treatment deterioration. Many clients report that by month 8-10, their skin is the best it's been in decades. Year two and beyond are about maintenance and prevention.
