Sun-induced skin aging, also called photoaging, results from repeated exposure to UV rays. It is manifested by a loss of firmness, of fine lines and wrinkles, of pigment spots, a irregular texture, a dull complexion and sometimes dilated pores. UV accelerates the degradation of collagen and elastin, alters the skin barrier and stimulates excessive melanin production. Although progressive, photoaging can be significantly improved through targeted professional care.

Lack of daily sun protection.
Chronic inflammation induced by UV rays.
Oxidative stress caused by pollution and free radicals.
