Fun in the Sun Sunscreen is a must

Sending your clients out into the summer sun after facial procedures is like putting a new born baby in the sun to bake.  IPL, laser, chemical peels, microdermabrasion all make the skin a ready target to absorb UVA- UVB rays at a faster rate than non treated skin.  SPF 30+ sunscreens protect against UVB rays but do not forget to protect yourself against the harmful UVA rays with products containing titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, parasol or helioplex.  The UVA are the most aging and cancer causing rays.  Many women and men feel that having SPF 15 in your make up or lotion is adequate…it is not.
