After all the dreary, dark winter days, what could be nicer than to sit outside for hours in the summer sunshine! However, be careful: Although the warm sun has a positive effect on our mood, filling us with energy and zest for life, we still should not forget to protect our skin!
When tanning and sunbathing we have to protect our skin to prevent it suffering unsightly or even serious damage.
A summer tan from the inside out?
The hormone melanotropin ensures that our skin pigment cells produce the brown pigment melanin. The greater the quantity of melanin that is produced, the darker the skin color will be. However, the central role that melanin plays is in protecting the skin from ultra-violet light, the visible tan is more or less a side effect. People with a light complexion produce less melanotropin in their bodies and therefore get sunburned more easily.
UV light can be dangerous for all skin types: UV light ages the skin prematurely and increases the risk of skin cancer developing.
Despite all the known dangers presented by the sun, we still enjoy being outside in it and wearing light clothing. To protect the skin from the damaging effect of UV light, and to prepare it for exposure to the sun, melanotropin can be administered as a supplement.
Pigment cells produce more melanin, strengthening the body’s protection from UV light from the inside out, so to speak, so that the skin tans more quickly and maintains the tan longer.
A medical consultation and an explanation of procedures are needed for each therapy with melanotropin substances. Therapy sessions are customized to the patient’s individual needs.
Natural regeneration and care for damaged skin
There are new types of treatment available for irritated skin damaged by the sun, using stem cells from the body’s own fat, growth factors from skin cells and platelet-rich-plasma (PRP).
