Sun Damage
Sun exposure significantly damages our skin. The sun dries out the skin by depleting its natural oils, while ultraviolet (UV) radiation burns the skin and causes long-term changes to the skin's structure. Repeated sunburn and unprotected UV exposure will increase premature ageing (fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation and broken capillaries) as well as increase your risk of skin cancer.
While much of the damage caused is permanent, treatments can reduce the appearance of sun damage that are making you look older. There isn’t one treatment that fits all, so a full consultation will be needed to create a bespoke treatment package for you. This will help to treat different signs of ageing to give you a natural healthy glow back to the skin.
Signs of sun damage are:
- Wrinkles
- Age spots
- Loose skin
- Spider veins
- Blotchy or ruddy complexion
- Dry skin
Although treatments may help improve the visible signs of sun damage, protecting your skin from further UV exposure is essential. Daily use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher can help prevent additional damage and reduce the risk of premature skin ageing. Sun protection is important throughout the year, including on cloudy days. Our team can also recommend suitable skincare products as part of your personalised skin plan.
