If only we knew how harmful the sun and its rays were 20 years ago. Sadly we didn’t and whilst we were casually covering ourselves in baby oil to achieve the deepest tan ever, we had no idea of the extent of damage we were causing.
A PREVENTATIVE APPROACH
Thankfully, we do understand sun damaged skin now and can take steps to protect our skin in the future. There are also some exceptional treatments to help counteract the damage caused, most of which occurs before we reach our twenties. Our Visia skin analysis will be able to detect this, so we can then treat it to prevent it reaching the surface.
IN THE HANDS OF PROFESSIONALS
If you can see the effects of sun damage on your skin – often this shows up in the form of dark patches or discolouration (hyperpigmentation) and fine lines and wrinkles – then your first step should be to seek professional advice.
