The damage done by UVA/UVB rays is a widely discussed topic. There is a continual increased emphasis in regards to daily sun protection for the skin. The last discovery for sun protection was in the 1990’s, which indicated sunscreens needed broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection to optimally protect the skin. Recently there has been another development to provide increased protection; protection against infrared rays (IR-A rays).
Your skin becomes warm to the touch when exposed to sun and this warming sensation damages the skin. This reaction is from IR-A rays and increases signs of aging. Traditional sunscreens offer broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection but do not offer protection against skin aging IR-A rays.
Skin Medica has recently released a new age defense sunscreen. Total Defense + Repair is a rejuvenating sunscreen that provides broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection along with IR-A protection. It has advanced antioxidant complexes to prevent the appearance of premature aging as a result of IR-A exposure. It is ideal for all ages to help prevent and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, skin tightness and tone, and sun damaged skin.
To introduce this new product we are currently offering a special package for total anti-aging correction and prevention. The package includes one TNS Recovery Complex, rich in growth factors to help correct signs of aging and stimulate collagen. This product is safe to use on post-procedure skin. The package also includes one Replenish Hydrating Cream, a medium weight moisturizer to ensure skin stays hydrated, prevent water loss, and maintain the lipids on the skin. Lastly the package includes one Total Defense + Repair, to provide complete protection while supporting the skin’s ability to restore itself. All products can be used on a sensitive skin type. Look under Specials on the website, call or come in for more information. While quantities last.
