80% of your skin’s aged appearance is caused by the sun, not the passage of time. And the damage caused by UV exposure that lurks under the skin’s surface is also visible on your face; it causes your complexion to appear dull, sallow, uneven, and aged. See for yourself how the sun has damaged your skin over time. Compare the skin on the inside of your arm with that on the outside of your arm and the backs of your hands. For most people, the skin on the inside is smooth, clear, firm and unmarked, while the skin on the outside is “dry toasted”: freckled, dry, finely lined, not as firm, and possibly dotted with brown spots. Studies have shown that digitally adjusting the pigment patterns on skin can affect the perception of age by as much as 20 years. With the right treatments and prevention, you can reverse many of the effects of past sun damage and make a huge difference in how your skin ages going forward.
