How to Heal Sun Damaged Skin
Scientists have investigated how to heal sun damaged skin. They have found
that many antioxidants or antioxidant-rich extracts are helpful, either when taken in supplement form or applied
topically as a skincare ingredient. One in particular is very effective, when applied directly. This
article focuses on that ingredient.
Coenzyme Q10 - What Is It? What Does It Do?
The most effective skincare ingredient according to scientific studies is a special form of the
antioxidant coenzyme Q10. You may have heard of it. The supplement is sometimes recommended for heart
and circulatory health.
In one study, volunteers suffering from premature aging and other signs of sun-related damage
were asked to use a cream containing the compound on a daily basis for three months. After the trial period
was over, the average improvement in the group was 30%. Other studies have shown similar results.
As these studies began making the news, cosmetic companies started adding coenzyme Q10 to their
creams and body lotions. The problem is that most companies do not include the correct form.
Normally, coenzyme Q10 particles are too large to penetrate through the skin’s
outer surface. So, they don’t do much good.
Using information gathered in nano-tech studies, researchers were able to fragment the
particles. The tiny fragments are able to penetrate through all of the skin’s layers, repairing damage as
they go.
Best Form of C0Q10
Only a few companies use the “nano-emulsion” form of coenzyme Q10. If you are trying to
learn how to heal sun damaged skin, the scientists say that the nano-emulsion form is the only one
that works.
Concentration is Critical
Concentration is also important. Some companies might use the nano-emulsion form, but fail
to use a large enough concentration. The correct concentration, according to research, is 5% nano-emulsified
coenzyme Q10 combined with 10% vitamin E acetate.
Find a product that contains that concentration. Use it on a regular basis. In two
simple steps, that’s how to heal sun damaged skin.
There are night creams, day creams and body lotions that contain the right concentration and the right
form. You might not find them on the shelves of your local discount store, but they are available for
order over the internet.
Some companies charge an outrageous price for this effective active ingredient. In many
cases, the price mostly has to do with the amount of advertising that the company does.
Prevent Sun Damage to Skin
An important component of how to heal sun damaged skin is to avoid redoing the damage.
Simply avoiding overexposure to sunlight will allow the damage to heal over time. Antioxidants like Coq10
speed the results. But, you still need to use adequate protection when you go outside.
More Beneficial Skin Care Ingredients
The best creams contain other beneficial ingredients. They work in synergy with COQ10 to
give even faster results. Compounds like Functional Keratin, wakame, passion fruit and grape seed oil are all
beneficial. Wakame extracts contain a compound called sulfated polyfucose, which helps to prevent
sun-damage.
Here is where you find the right creams or lotions, use them on a
daily basis. That’s how to heal sun damaged skin.
