Medical Conditions - Photoaging

Photoaging also known as sun damage is the premature aging of the skin as a result of sun exposure. It can result in changes in skin texture, wrinkles, redness, pigmentation spots, and loss of facial elasticity. It occurs as a result of ultraviolet radiation-induced DNA changes and can lead to skin cancer.

All photoaging Q&A

What is the best time to apply sunscreen, and can it be applied on the scalp?

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. Thank you for your query, Sunscreens are very important during day hours.

Please suggest a treatment for darker skin complexion and pimples.

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I went through your query and understood your concern. The skin of the face is thin and is more prone to photoaging and irritants compared to the other areas.
