In this magnificent article on beauty recommendations, featured in the Beauty section of Vanitatis El Confidencial, in collaboration with Dr. Mar Mira from Mira+Cueto clinic and dermatologist Lidia Maroñas, a collaborator of Merz Aesthetics, emphasis is placed on the importance of protecting, preventing, and treating the harmful effects of the sun.
It is worth noting that the sun is not harmful; on the contrary, it is recommended by all healthcare professionals as sunlight strengthens the immune system, reduces stress, maintains strong bones, and fights depression. However, 10 minutes a day are sufficient to obtain all these benefits. Overexposure, on the other hand, alters the proper structure of our dermis and causes degradation of collagen fibers. This effect is known as solar elastosis and is the only sign of aging whose exclusive cause is exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
“Applying cream after sunbathing is not enough. The sun degrades collagen fibers, leading to sagging, spots, and wrinkles, but there is a solution.”Dr. Mira adds the benefit of supplementing the summer diet with antioxidants and beta-carotenes, something that oral photoprotection in the form of capsules contributes to, and “keeping the skin as hydrated and balanced as possible. It is also advisable to diagnose the skin's condition by analyzing collagen structure, elasticity, hydration, vascularization, and sebum.”
What is their recommendation?
Protect and prevent. And for this, they have included our supplement Unique Pink Collagen, which absorbs the necessary nutrients for proper cellular function, promotes renewal, is antioxidant, and improves elasticity.ARTICLE: Sílvia Capafons
