The Importance of Sunscreen in Your Anti-Aging Beauty Regimen

by | Sep 27, 2020 | Face

The effects of the sun on skin aging and skin health are profound and should not be understated. One study revealed that 90 % of skin aging is due to the sun, and 90 % of skin aging occurs Before the age of 18 ! That means that most of the sun damage incurred in ones life is happening in the early years of life, a time when people are generally less fearful and cognizant of the effects of the sun.

 

Until something more effective and protective is developed by science, sunscreen remains the mainstay in anti-aging and cancer prevention for the skin. It’s not just for the beach: UV Rays are damaging to the skin in more ways than one. And it has recently been discovered that sitting under fluorescent lighting for long periods of time may be just as harmful to your skin as catching rays the old fashion way. UV rays are always unavoidable so it’s best to take preventative measures in your own hands and add it to our daily routine.

Sunscreen is extremely beneficial in the prevention of sun damage in the form of wrinkles and melanin deposits or brown age spots. Not only is it good for your beauty routine, it is your best protection against skin cancer like melanoma. A recent study from Ohio State University concluded that using a SPF 30 could prevent your risk of melanoma by as much as 80% ! Thus, if you want to prevent signs of aging as well as fight cancer, be sure to apply a broad spectrum SPF 30 daily before you apply makeup.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many years have you been a practicing plastic surgeon?

My first year out of residency was in 2005

Describe your philosophy and approach to cosmetic enhancement and treatment of patients

Philosophy: Superior advice predicated upon evidence-based medicine, innovative insight, and efficient execution.

Treatment goals: Create a natural-appearing, balanced aesthetic enhancement that complements the patient’s unique features.

What’s most important to you when treating patients?

Comfort and security: We strive to achieve the ultimate customer experience. In surgery, much like professional sports, talent typically prevails. Championships however, are won by the teams who subscribe to organizational excellence. Accordingly, with good surgical planning and sound judgment, the majority of routine surgeries follow fairly predictable outcomes. Hence, customer service makes the experience complete. That’s what ultimately differentiates you as a surgeon from the masses. And that is our goal: to exceed our clients expectations.

What does a consultation with you entail?

Initially, patient information is gathered including photographs, salient medical history, and aesthetic goals. Next, I perform a comprehensive consultation utilizing videos and interactive patient education software. Following the consultation, the patient reviews the surgical procedure, peri-operative plans, and financials with the surgical consultant.

What steps does your office take to augment comfort?

We offer several features to augment comfort: A VIP waiting area, complimentary beverage menu, and Wi-Fi connectivity, and complementary usage of iPads.
