SUN POST-SUMMER

LOOKING AFTER THE SUN POST-SUMMER

Are you looking to remove summer signs on your skin? You may find the following tips helpful;

Apply an exfoliating body scrub                                                                                                 

A gently body scrub can remove dead skin on the surface and offer moisture that leaves a smooth and soft complexion. I recommend an exfoliating scrub with glycolic acid for cell turnover, which attacks UV rays effects.

Use a cleansing mask

Perhaps you applied sunscreen throughout the summer, which clogged your pores Applying other products may have led to sweat, oil, and dirt accumulation in the skin pores, thus causing acne. A cleansing mask will help minimize pores and remove impurities.

Find a vitamin C serum

Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause dark spots, new freckles, or uneven skin. But applying a vitamin C serum helps promote collagen and elastin production, which makes your skin firm and lump. It also reduces premature aging signs caused by UV rays to give a smooth and youthful skin tone.

Dermatologist services to protect the skin post-summer.

The following services are significant;

Skin check

I highly recommend a thorough skin check from head to toe to detect traces of cancerous or pre-cancerous spots. If found, your derm will provide a skin management program to eliminate the spots and lower your risk of more UV rays damage.

Mole checking

Mole checking involves using high digital resolution imaging to access lesions in the body. It helps diagnose melanoma in patients with high risk. The earlier any problem is detected, the higher chances of saving a life.
