Unveiling the Hidden Impact of UV, Blue Light, and Infrared on Skin Aging
Did you know that prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, high-energy visible light (HEVL, or blue light), and infrared (IR) radiation are major culprits behind premature skin aging? Natural sunlight comprises a spectrum of wavelengths, including UV, visible light, and IR, each with distinct effects on human skin.
Early Biomarkers Reveal the Silent Damage
Early biomarkers show that UV, HEVL, and IR penetrate deep into the skin, causing DNA damage, disrupting the skin barrier and extracellular matrix, altering dermal structural proteins, and accelerating the formation of wrinkles and age spots. By identifying these early impacts, we can proactively prevent visible signs of aging and develop effective solutions for skin health and longevity.
While traditional sunscreens and filters offer crucial protection against sunlight’s harmful effects, stimulating the skin’s natural defenses and detoxification mechanisms could provide additional benefits.
