Sun-damaged skin is one of the most common skin concerns in Southwest Florida due to years of exposure to intense ultraviolet (UV) rays. Over time, excessive sun exposure can contribute to age spots, pigmentation changes, wrinkles, redness, uneven skin tone, rough texture, and loss of skin elasticity. At NAWI Wellness in Naples, FL, we offer advanced skin rejuvenation and laser treatments designed to improve the visible signs of sun damage and help restore healthier, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
Excessive sun exposure is one of the biggest causes of damaged and aging skin. Over time, the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays break down the healthy structure of the skin, causing wrinkles, brown spots and poor skin tone.
Over time, the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays break down the healthy structure of the skin, causing wrinkles, brown spots and poor skin tone. When skin fibers break down, the skin loses its elasticity and tension, resulting in wrinkles. The flat brown and black spots that occur because of exposure to the sun are called age spots or sun spots. Freckles are a sign of sun damage, too!
Sun damage may also present in the way of increased visible vascularity in the skin, including general redness or visible small vessels, in addition to a rough skin texture or dull-looking skin.
It happens when ultraviolet (UV) light hits skin unprotected by sunscreen, causing DNA changes at a cellular level. Because photodamage happens in the deepest layers of the skin—the dermis—it can take years before the damage surfaces and becomes visible.
