Bronzed beach beauties, summer afternoons spent lazing by the pool, backyard barbeques for days… funnily enough, the picture of the idyllic Australian summer doesn’t include the photoageing, facial redness and blotchy skin so many of us experience.
Photodamage, or photoaging is the visible (and not so visible) changes we see in our skin from exposure to UV sunlight. Wrinkles, pigmentation, spider veins and redness are commonly associated with photodamage.
Think you’re free from photodamage because you seek the shade quicker than you can say Nicole Kidman? Think again. Photodamage occurs with exposure to sunlight whether or not your tan lines are intentional, with 25 per cent of our lifetime sun exposure occurring before we hit our 20s.
Take action to remedy your former self’s obsession with the summer sun and help your skin to minimise the redness you can see and well as the damage that lies beneath.
Ultraceuticals Ultra RED-Action Complex serum is guaranteed to reduce facial redness with ground-breaking science featuring the revolutionary Anti-RED Complex containing Kinetin, Andrographolide and Niacinamide.
The powerful anti-irritant and soothing ingredients such as salicin and allantoin make the RED-Action Complex ideal for those with sensitive skin and rosacea.
The lightweight fast-absorbing serum also works to provide vital hydration to help strengthen the skin’s barrier function and deliver potent ingredients to the skin.
“As facial redness is primarily caused by photoageing it should be treated with an ongoing skincare regimen as you would treat the other signs of photodamage such as fine lines, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. As with the other signs of photoageing, if treatment is ceased there will be a very gradual return of redness over a period of months to several years,” says Dr Geoffrey Heber, of the Heber Davis clinic.
