SUN DAMAGE
THE PRICE OF SUN-KISSED SKIN
Sun-kissed skin can leave you feeling radiant and alive, but prolonged sun exposure can take a toll on your skin's health and appearance. At Miriderma Skin Clinic, we understand the impact of photoageing, also known as sun damage, and we specialise in providing effective treatments to reverse its effects. We remain dedicated to helping you restore your skin's youthful vitality and protect it from further harm.
WHY DOES SUN DAMAGE (PHOTOAGEING) DEVELOP?
Sun damage occurs due to cumulative exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. Here are the primary factors contributing to photoageing:
UVA AND UVB RAYS
UVA rays penetrate deep into the skin, causing long-term damage to collagen and elastin fibres. UVB rays, on the other hand, primarily affect the outer layer of the skin, leading to sunburn and triggering the body's natural defence mechanisms.
COLLAGEN BREAKDOWN
Prolonged sun exposure accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin fibres, which are responsible for maintaining the skin's firmness and elasticity. As these fibres deteriorate, the skin becomes prone to sagging, wrinkles, and fine lines.
HYPERPIGMENTATION
The sun's UV radiation stimulates the production of melanin, resulting in the appearance of dark spots, freckles, and uneven skin tone. These pigmentary changes can give the skin an aged and uneven appearance.
UNEVEN TEXTURE
Sun damage can cause the skin's texture to become rough, dry, and uneven. This can make it difficult for the skin to reflect light evenly, leading to a dull and lacklustre complexion.
