A new year brings a fresh opportunity for confidence. At NicholsMD Dermatology, we believe true radiance is built from the outside in and the inside out. For 2026, skip the fleeting trends and focus on science-backed, personalized resolutions that support skin health, hair strength, longevity, and overall wellness.
Here are the most impactful resolutions you (and your future self) will thank you for making.
2026 Skin Resolutions
1. Protect your skin every day
Daily SPF 50+ isn’t optional. UV exposure is the #1 driver of premature aging, discoloration, collagen breakdown, and skin cancer risk. Consistent protection preserves every other investment you make in your skin.
2. Use active serums with intention
Vitamin C is the key to glowing. Medical-grade formulas like Vitamin C antioxidant serums help brighten, defend against environmental damage, and support collagen synthesis.
3. Treat laxity sooner, not later
With Ultherapy and Ellacor now FDA-approved for both face and body tightening, 2026 is the year to address collagen loss before it becomes advanced laxity. Early intervention = better outcomes.
4. Add retinol to your nighttime ritual
Clinical-grade retinoids improve acne, texture, tone, and fine lines. We love our NicholsMD Retinol Body Lotion for full-body confidence, too. It’s skincare, upgraded.
5. Build collagen with biostimulators
Bio-building treatments like Sculptra and hyperdilute Radiesse enhance collagen over time for natural structure, skin tightening, and body contouring confidence.
6. Combine treatments for smarter results
Alternating lasers like Fraxel Dual with chemical peels creates a compounding effect for acne scars, pigmentation, melasma, and texture. It’s personalized dermatology with exponential benefits.
2026 Hair Resolutions
7. Nourish regrowth, especially after shedding
Post-stress or postpartum shedding is often telogen effluvium, and while temporary, regrowth quality matters. Medical-grade topicals like Plated Hair Serum support a healthier scalp environment for stronger recovery.
8. Consider PRP/PRF for elevated hair density
Growth-factor rich treatments like Platelet-based hair restoration help stimulate follicles, increase density, and improve hair caliber. Ideal for patients wanting to take hair wellness to the next level in 2026.
9. Supplement smarter
Nutrients like protein, iron, Vitamin D, zinc, and omega-3s play a critical role in hair strength. Personalized supplement plans amplify results from in-office treatments.
2026 Wellness + Longevity Resolutions
10. Invest in preventative diagnostics
NicholsMD patients benefit from SECA body composition scans, Galleri cancer screening, and biomarker longevity testing to guide proactive wellness decisions. Wellness that’s measured is wellness that improves.
11. Support skin health from within
We offer customized Vitamin IV infusions, tailored to each patient’s biology. Think of it as hydration and cellular support, optimized.
12. Balance hormones, boost confidence
Hormone changes impact acne, thinning hair, skin elasticity, mood, energy, and metabolism. With Biote hormone optimization available at NicholsMD, 2026 is your chance to realign wellness in a way that shows.
13. Treat wellness holistically
Whether it’s IV therapy, supplements, hormone optimization, or regenerative aesthetics like biostimulators, we customize every plan to your goals and your lifestyle.
Your 2026 Glow is a Long Game, Played Better
Confidence is highest when you look in the mirror and feel like yourself but refreshed, supported, and thriving. That’s the NicholsMD standard. We treat patients at every stage of life, with plans that feel elevated, rooted in medical excellence, and #NaturalAtNichols
