Many of our female clients are as bothered by the sun damage on parts of their body as they are with the signs of sun damage apparent on their face. All areas of the body can sustain dramatic skin damage and signs of aging due to frequent tanning and even every day exposure to UV rays. The décolletage and hands are areas that are of special concern for many of our female patients. The skin on your chest and neck is particularly vulnerable to visible aging, since it tends to be thinner, less moisturized and often overlooked in the sun protection regimens.

Premier Skin Care Center offers a variety of skin rejuvenation treatments that provide solutions to improve sun damage on many areas of the body including the arms, hands, legs, neck, shoulder, and décolletage, including Obagi’s ELASTIderm Decolletage System.

Obagi’s ELASTIderm Decolletage System

Obagi’s ELASTIderm Decolletage System is an effective skincare system designed to reduce the signs of sun damage and aging on the delicate skin of the female neck and chest. The ElASTIderm Décolletage System can:

• Reduce hyperpigmentation and age spots
• Decrease fine lines and wrinkles

The sun has a profound effect on the skin during years of sun exposure, causing sun damage and premature skin aging. Almost all major adult skin problems such as fine lines, age spots, dry skin and wrinkles can be attributed more to sun exposure than to natural aging alone. Sun damaged skin changes that are commonly due to sun exposure include skin cancer, age spots, sun-induced freckles, actinic keratosis, and moles. Skin texture changes caused by the sun’s ultraviolet radiation include thickening of skin leading to course wrinkles and thinning of skin causing fine wrinkles, easy bruising and skin tearing. The sun can also cause other skin conditions such as a permanent stretching of small blood vessels, giving your skin a mottled, reddish appearance.

Skin Care and Sun Protection

1. Be Sun Safety Smart! Wear sun protective clothing and hats when outdoors and enjoy safe sun.
2. Apply a sun protection product that provides broad-spectrum protection from UVA and UVB rays and that has a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 or higher. Products that contain zinc oxide 3.5% or higher applied to all sun-exposed skin areas every day is recommended. Avoid deliberate sun tanning and minimize sun exposure.
3. Apply a topical anti-oxidant vitamin C (such as Obagi Ceffective Serum) to the face and sun exposed skin daily. This will boost skin’s ability to fight sun damage and will significantly reduce your risk from the sun’s radiation and help repair and fight skin damage caused by the sun’s ultraviolet radiation.

Benefits from this simple 3-step regime include:

• Reduction in visible signs of sun damage to the skin on body areas including texture changes, dullness, coarse thickening of the dead cell layer, and pigment irregularities (those awful brown age spots!)
• Better over all healthy skin appearance and
• Skin cancer prevention

How to Treat Sun Damaged Skin

There are a number of skin care products (alpha hydroxyl acids, Vitamin C preparations, prescription Vitamin A preparations such as Tretenoin creams), and skin rejuvenation treatments available that will help maintain a healthy youthful skin appearance, prevent skin aging and reverse many of the signs of existing sun damage. Our experienced esthetic staff and physicians will work with you to develop an individual skin rejuvenation treatment plan using the latest proven procedures which may include microdermabrasion, chemical peels, BBL photo-rejuvenation and laser resurfacing.
