The Consequences of Sun Damage
Unprotected sun exposure is the number one cause of premature aging and skin cancer. Unfortunately, many people still don’t take it seriously and are not doing enough to protect their skin. Here at Le Rêve we understand the importance Skin care for sun Damage prevention. Our goal is to tackle aging at its source (sun exposure) and improve the overall health of your skin.
Consequences of Sun Damage
Sun damage destroys the skin’s ability to maintain the vital components it needs to look young and healthy. (Components such as antioxidants, essential fatty acids, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and vitamins) Studies have proven that sun exposure may cause up to 90% of the visible changes attributed to Aging.
In addition to potentially life-threatening skin cancer, the long-term consequences of unprotected sun exposure from UVA and UVB rays include:
- Increased fine lines and wrinkles.
- Skin discolorations and uneven tone.
- Dry, crepey-looking skin.
- Buildup on the surface layer, resulting in dull, congested skin.

Skin Rejuvenation Fotofacial
Facial rejuvenation treatments are designed to address and correct facial imperfections that have developed as a result of the natural aging process, environmental factors (i.e. sun damage), or genetics. The ultimate goal of a facial rejuvenation treatment is to restore the skin to a more youthful state, with a smooth, firm, even appearance that is free of wrinkles, lines, and dark spots. Facial skin is very delicate, and it is important that facial rejuvenation treatments effectively treat the signs of aging, without causing damage to the adjacent facial tissues.
