Sundamaged Skin

Your skin consists of two layers. The thin outer layer, called the epidermis, is our body's defensive layer. New epidermal cells are constantly forming to replace dead skin cells that flake off at the surface. The dermis, or inner layer, contains blood vessels, nerves, oil and glands. It also contains, to a large extent, collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid – substances that support and maintain your skin's shape.

Sun damaged skin

Over time, the effects of sun, wind, facial expression, aging, environment, hormones, and oxidative stress can cause damage to your skin. The skin damage appears as lines, age spots, lentigines and brown spots on your face and hands.

Using Intense Pulse Light therapy, our North Vancouver skin care clinic can reverse the signs of sun damage.
