Goodbye summer, hello skincare

Ageing is a biological process that begins at conception and ends at death. It is an eminently progressive phenomenon that depends on the nature of the tissues, conditioned by age itself and certain metabolic alterations. Skin ageing is associated with intrinsic senescence and skin alterations related to sun exposure, functional and morphological changes, habits, smoking and, in women, hormonal status and skin changes related to the menopause.

We know that the Sun has never been skin’s best friend. During the summer, we are regularly exposed to it, especially when we are on holiday. But, even if we limit ourselves to tanning salons, it is very easy – and dangerous – to overdo it. Sun damage accumulates from exposure to UV rays and over time, we notice one or more signs of photoaging: wrinkles, fine lines, loss of firmness, sagging skin, spots and abnormal pigmentation, among other symptoms.

Now that we are saying “goodbye” to summer, we should immediately ask ourselves the following question: “How do we take care of our skin after so much exposure to the sun?

Let’s keep in mind that once the aforementioned signs appear on our body and face, they cannot be reversed or completely eliminated. However, there are some actions we can take to significantly reduce the damage to our skin.

In specialised centres

It is important that when you decide to go to skin care treatment centres, they are trustworthy and have medical specialists who can make an assertive diagnosis of each skin type and based on this, apply the appropriate procedure.

At the international school of aesthetic medicine and surgery (EIMEC) and at EIMEC Clinic www.eimecclinic.com, you will find experts in medical practice with more than 20 years of experience, dedicated to the study of the health and well-being of the skin, with skills and techniques that guarantee confidence and safety, where aesthetic medicine is approached as a personalised precision discipline, based on knowing the patient’s aspirations, the diagnosis of the skin and their medical history. The key is to develop an action protocol of preventive and corrective medicine adapted to the needs and possibilities of each individual.

The most recommended treatments for circumstances of excessive post-exposure to the sun (as happens at the end of the summer season) are those that help us to recover the natural state of the skin and repair the damage caused by the sun’s radiation, such as those listed below:  

  • Facial hygiene.
  • Deep moisturising of the face, neck and cleavage.
  • Complex detox pack.
  • Chemical peeling. Exfoliation and cellular activator treatment.
  • Regenerative treatments.
  • Facial rejuvenation with hyaluronic acid.
  • Collagen inducers.
  • Skin revitalisation with vitamins.
  • Laser treatments for rejuvenation and removal of facial blemishes.
  • Photodynamic therapy.

Home care

Beyond specialised beauty treatments, there are easy, daily routines you can follow at home or wherever you are, that help keep your skin healthy.

  • Drink water daily. At least one and a half litres.
  • Use cosmetic products suitable for your skin type.
  • Use sunscreen and avoid excessive sunbathing.
  • Use moisturizing body milk to cleanse and soothe the skin.
  • Do not overuse make-up, in order to avoid the continued influence of chemical agents that can dehydrate the skin.
  • Daily skin hygiene. Daily and night-time skin care routines.
  • Healthy lifestyle habits. Diet, sport, avoiding toxic substances such as tobacco, alcohol and other substances, getting enough sleep and resting body and mind.
  • Adequate hydration

The health of your skin is in your hands. 

You can have beautiful, glowing, and youthful skin.

Most people want to “die old looking young”, and they spare no sacrifice to achieve this. They want to “buy many more years of life” (with quality of life, mind you). To “rejuvenate” their skin, people try to prevent, delay, or reverse the signs and symptoms of skin ageing.
