With the arrival of summer, skin care becomes even more important and it’s a concern that we need to be even more aware of in our daily lives.
Reduced exposure to the sun, adequate hydration and protection from UV rays are essential skin care measures to keep skin healthy and beautiful during the hottest season of the year.
Medilav is here to help with essential tips and specialized dermatology services.
Skin Care
Exposure to the sun
Excessive exposure to the sun can cause sunburn and premature ageing and increases the risk of cancer and skin problems.
Protecting yourself with sunscreen is one of the most important skincare products and is crucial for preventing this damage and maintaining healthy skin.
Moisturizing the Skin
Moisturizing the skin is very important to keep it healthy and beautiful, especially at this time of year when temperatures tend to be higher.
Heat and sun exposure can leave skin dry and dehydrated, so you should drink plenty of water and use moisturizing creams suited to your skin type to keep it hydrated and recover from the damage caused by sun exposure.
Skin Protection Tips
Use of sunscreen
Using sunscreen is crucial to keeping your skin protected when you’re out in the sun.
You should choose and use a sunscreen with an adequate protection factor that is resistant to water.
You should also apply generously and reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating to keep your skin protected all day long.
Protective clothing
Wear light clothing, wide-brimmed hats and sunglasses to protect yourself from UV rays, especially during peak hours.
Hydration and Nutrition
Drink plenty of water and eat foods rich in antioxidants and vitamins to help keep your skin healthy and hydrated during this period.
Care after sun exposure
Use products after sun exposure to soothe burns and moisturize the skin.
Apply moisturizers daily to help your skin recover and keep it healthy.
