REJUVENATE YOUR SKIN AND REVERSE THE EFFECTS OF SUN DAMAGE I have several brown marks on my face. They have been there for a couple of years now. My skin feels rough and aged looking. I am 56. Growing up in Queensland, I used to spend a lot of time in the sun trying to get a tan, even though I never used to tan very well. I cover myself up whenever possible now. Is there anything that I can do? Your pale skin, sun tanning from an early age, and the amount of sun exposure certainly put you at risk of sun damage to the skin. Whilst it is tempting to start treatment straight away, my approach is to perform a careful skin examination to make sure that there are no cancerous or pre-cancerous changes, which if present I would treat medically or surgically. There are several treatment options to treat your sun damage, ranging from chemical peels, intense pulse light, laser resurfacing or fractional resurfacing. They vary in the degree of rejuvenation that they can achieve. We can also combined the treatments to produce a more profound result. It is also important not to forget sun protection and skin care. At Facial Artistry, we adopt a holistic team care approach to the overall treatment plan. After your assessment with myself, your treatment will be carried out by our fully qualified dermal therapist, who can also provide expert advice on an optimal skin care regime for your skin type. Dr Bernard Leung and his team provide a holistic approach to your skin diagnosis and treatment at Facial Artistry.
