It is easy to take our skin for granted but when we do, we start to suffer the effects of ageing and any toxins that we expose our bodies to much more quickly. This includes sun damage, which is a key contributor to the development of pigmentation changes, lines and wrinkles. Paper-thin skin, sagging, skin folds and heavy brows are just some of the problems we may experience as we get older.

EltaMD skin care products only available through a physician have been designed with long-term skin restoration and health in mind. With more than a quarter of a century of experience in developing specialist skin care products, we understand that for skin to look good it needs to be healthy and have some natural protection against further damage. For this reason, we highly recommend EltaMD products which are wideley used and advocated by other medical professionals.

EltaMD Skin Care Products

EltaMD skin care products have been formulated specifically to repair the visible signs of ageing. Their cleansers are pH-balanced and don’t contain ingredients that might potentially irritate sensitive skin, such as glycolic acids and alpha hydroxy acids or AHAs. EltaMD moisturizers target moisture retention in the skin so that it looks soft and radiant, while helping to protect it from damage.

EltaMD Sun Care Products

Most people are aware that sun damage can be very dangerous for our skin. Not only can it expedite the ageing process, causing us to develop pigmentation changes, fine lines and deep wrinkles much more quickly, it can also permanently alter skin cells and cause cancer to develop. Sunscreen use is recommended all year round to help eliminate the risks associated with sun damage.

However, EltaMD sunscreens are far superior to many others and are recommended by The Skin Cancer foundation as effective broad-spectrum sunscreens. Each is formulated with transparent zinc oxide and is noncomedogenic, paraben, fragrance and sensitivity-free making them suitable for virtually all patients. When you choose EltaMD sunscreens, you are taking pro-active steps to prevent sunburn, reduce your risk of skin cancer and keep your skin looking healthy and youthful for as long as possible.
