SUN AWARENESS WEEK

When UV rays enter skin cells, they affect the skin’s growth process and appearance. 

Over time exposure to these rays can make skin less elastic and cause:

  • Pigmentation
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Loose sagging skin
  • Leathery thicker skin
  • Cancer

This Sun Awareness Week take time to consider your skincare regime. What can you do to prevent sun damage and what can be done to already damaged skin?

Prevention is better than cure so always wear a good SPF – even in winter – and on hot days wear a wide-brimmed hat.

MICRODERMABRASION

A course of SkinBase Microdermbrasion can work wonders on sun-damaged skin. It is especially great for pigmentation. This gentle exfoliating treatment lifts the layers of dead skin cells while stimulating cell renewal. A course of MD at regular intervals will improve pigmentation and fine lines. Sun spots will fade or disappear – leaving your skin looking younger and more refreshed. Never forget to apply SPF!

COLLAGEN LIFT

Another great treatment for sun-damaged and loose, sagging skin. A hand-held device delivers energy waves deep into your skin. You will notice a difference after just one treatment and will see instant results. After a course of treatments the results can last for up to two years.

IPL REJUVENATION

This is the ultimate treatment for pigmentation and sun-damaged skin. Powerful bursts of light target the lower layers of skin. The light helps trigger your collagen production to lighten sun-spots and discolouration. The damaged skin in the targeted area will be removed by your body naturally. 

Always remember to apply SPF and reapply throughout the day during the summer months.

Testimonial: “JC was so low, suicidal at points. Sore, red, angry, his skin was awful, we had tried everything and doctors you name it. We reached out to Becky, who was wonderful. My son was quiet and withdrawn, lacked confidence and self esteem, and locked himself away from the world. Becky booked us in for a consultation to discuss different options of treatments and we decided the new hydro treatment would be the best option. We started the course and JC was nervous but Becky was great with him talking him through everything, step by step! As we went each time JC’s skin got better and better, but also the difference in him was huge, he was gaining confidence, shoulders back, head held high. We have watched his skin change from this red, aggressive, angry skin that was sore, acne was debilitating to him but now he is confident, holds his head up high and has even got his first job! We are so proud. When we met Becky I felt confident she would help us get his skin better and back on track but what has actually happened is skin looks amazing but to see our son gain confidence has been the biggest win! Teens often get pushed aside, put on string meds and told “it’s just your age” but this isn’t what they want to hear, but The SkinBase treatments Becky has done has changed his life! We cannot thank you enough Becky! JC is continuing with the treatments as it still gets the odd breakouts but the scarring is still improving week in week out. The hydro Facial is just amazing and we cannot recommend it enough and of course Becky and her passion for skin and helping people is wonderful!”
