Sun Damage – How We Get Rid of It
Living in Orlando and spending a great deal of time at the beach is a surefire way to get sun damage. Orlando residents are encouraged to visit our newest LightTouch Med Spa location and meet with our team of experts to learn about how to treat and prevent sun damage. However, we thought we’d share some of our favourite tips and treatments here anyway, so read on for more information!
What Do We Most Recommend for Sun Damage in Orlando?
IPL™ treatments, commonly known as photo rejuvenation treatments effectively treat skin conditions such as sun damage quickly. IPL™ treatments are also effective at treating a variety of skin conditions such as Rosacea. IPL™ technology emits short bursts of a powerful, polychromatic light that penetrate below the surface of the skin in order to target melanin or blood vessels, depending on the type of treatment. The light destroys the melanin or blood vessels and thus destroys pigmentation caused by the sun. IPL™ can also stimulate collagen production and therefore rejuvenate skin.

Strategies You Can Use to Prevent Sun Damage On Your Own
First and foremost, it is imperative to reduce or eliminate your time spent in the sun. If you have fair skin, we don’t recommend spending a great deal of time in the sun. If being out in the sun is a big part of your lifestyle, be cognizant of the time of day you’re choosing to stay in the sun. Don’t go out during peak times when the sun is at its strongest and you’re more likely to burn.
