Understanding why laser rejuvenation is important in California
Babies, children, and teens have complexions that characterize youthful
beauty. Their skin is firm and smooth, plumped with natural moisture.
The tone is as nature intended – creamy pale, mocha, deep, or somewhere
in between.
We love the warmth and cheerfulness of the sun. More than
63,000 residents of the Walnut Creek area enjoy about 260 days of it
each year! However, as our skin is exposed to harmful environmental
elements like damaging ultraviolet rays, it begins to lose its childlike
lushness.
We know that too much sun is linked to skin cancer. However,
extreme or repeated exposure (even in small doses) also results in
symptoms that age your face, such as:
- Dry skin
- Rough texture
- Loss of elasticity
- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Freckles
- Age spots
- Visible veins
- Uneven skin tone
- Sun spots
