Actinic Damage

Currently, when it comes to research and development in areas such as sun protection, in addition to the search for formulations that provide the highest and safest SPF, it is necessary to include actinic damage in the equation, and talk about its importance and how crucial it is its prevention. Actinic damage is defined as the accumulation of damage inflicted on cellular DNA caused by sun exposure; Depending on the severity of this damage, it can trigger precancerous lesions such as actinic keratosis. For this reason, and based on the numerous scientific and clinical evidences that exist in this regard, is necessary to move away from basic sunscreens and provide with formulations aimed to reduce actinic damage, with antioxidant properties and sunscreens that cover the entire spectrum of UVA and UVB rays.
