How to undo skin damage from the Aussie sun?

Too many hours in the hot Aussie sun can, unfortunately, give you visible skin damage. If you spend even a little time outside, you should examine yourself for signs of premature aging so you can stop it in its tracks.

Classic signs of skin damage:

• Increased irregular pigmentation and fine wrinkles
• Liver spots, age spots, solar lentigines
• Sagging skin, deep wrinkles and vertical creases
• Melasma, a dark brown blemish that typically appears on the face like the cheeks, forehead, nose and chin
• Poikiloderma, or reddish-brown pigmentation usually on the neck and chest
• Solar keratoses or sun spots– scaly patches found on the ears, face and lower arms.

Because sun damage not only affects your physical appearance but threatens health, it’s important to treat your skin and also see a medical professional for regular checks, new moles and changing spots.

According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, overexposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays can cause skin cancer and precancerous solar keratosis (sun spots) over time. However, regular skin examinations and proper care can reverse signs of aging and reduce your chance of getting sick.

      How to look younger? here are a few basics:
