DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy believes that SPF sun-screens have benefits beyond simple
sun protection and are thus important in the support of skincare treatment products.
Our philosophy, with respect to the benefits of SPFs, will be explained in discussions
of:
-
SPF healing support by active ingredients
-
SPF antioxidant activities
-
SPF hydration benefits
SPF Healing Support By Active Ingredients
The overall healing support of SPFs is obvious. Skin that is protected from the impacts
of UVA and UVB radiation will resist disease and will be healthier in general. However,
SPFs can have additional benefits when formulated with specific support ingredients.
DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy SPF products include healing and anti- inflammatory ingredients
for enhanced treatment support:
Healing – Healing ingredients shorten treatment duration, and reduce
pain and scarring potential in skin treatments.
Anti-inflammatory – Minimizing inflammation reduces the potential
for hyperpigmentation and ageing impacts.
These properties support the skincare treatment processes and are important in home
care regimens. They also support healing of chronic skin conditions such as acne,
rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema.
SPF and antioxidant activities
According to the FDA, no SPF is capable of blocking 100% of UV radiation. For this
reason, DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy SPF products are formulated with antioxidants.
They scavenge oxidants resulting from UV rays not blocked through SPF application,
rendering them inactive.
Combining antioxidants with SPF ingredients in DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy products
greatly enhances the products’ capabilities beyond broad-spectrum SPF support. They
provide powerful ageing control benefits that support skincare treatment and healing.
Also, the protection of cellular RNA and DNA through anti-oxidation reduces the
potential for ageing and diseases of the skin.
SPF hydration Benefits
DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy SPF products are formulated with hydration ingredients to
enhance skin treatment, providing two reasons for purchase.
DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy SPF products include high-performance hydration ingredients
such as sodium hyaluronate, to support hydration and a healthy mantle of the skin.
DermaQuest™ skin therapy advanced SPF technologies
Despite the known potential health benefits offered by SPF products, it has been
difficult to gain compliance from clients. The reasons for this varies, but it can
usually be summed up that SPF products, have an undesirable texture, smell, and
residue left on the skin after application. These concerns have been conquered by
the advanced technologies and formulations utilized by DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy.
Smell & Feel
In the past, chemical SPFs did not have a pleasant aroma and did not apply smoothly.
DermaQuest™ Skin Therapy has conquered these problems with a smooth, lotion-like
application, and a light, pleasant aroma.
