Repairing Sun Damaged Skin
I found the following article on sun damaged skin at http://www.ladyspeak.com/.
“Skin damage from sunlight builds up with continued exposure, whether sunburn occurs or not. By the age of 18 most of us have already accumulated 80 per cent of our lifetime sun exposure and at least 80per cent of what we consider normal skin aging is really sun damage.Pale skin suffers more UVB damage than dark skin, so is most at risk.Mediterranean, dark brown and black skins can usually tolerate more sun, but aging UVA rays are still able to penetrate.
According to dermatologists, the worst kind of sun damage occurs when skin is given a large dose of exposure after months without any at all. So,regardless of how fair or dark the skin, use a high-protection full-spectrum (UVA and UVB) sunscreen with a SPF of at least 15 from the beginning of a holiday. Remember that incidental exposure to damaging rays occurs every time your skin is in the sun, whether you are driving in a car with the windows closed on a cloudy day or out on the ski slopes. Treating sun-damaged skin is not all that different to treating aging skin, as the problems are the same. Studies have shown a reversal of sun damage in patients using tretinoin Retin-A creams. Glycolic acid,chemical peels, micro-dermabrasion and laser resurfacing have all been shown to remove fine lines and wrinkles, even out pigmentation and fade brown spots. Fresh elastin and collagen production can be stimulated by topical applications of L-ascorbic acid. Finally,remember skin can repair itself if you give it a chance by staying out of the sun and using a full-spectrum sunscreen.”
