Summer Sun Protection: Professional Dermatology Tips Beyond Sunscreen

We all know sunscreen is a must for summer skincare, but it’s actually just one part of a complete sun protection strategy for your skin. At Medical Village in Dubai, our experienced team goes beyond SPF to help you keep your skin healthy, vibrant, and protected throughout the summer.

With modern dermatological treatments and technology, we’re here to help your skin shine, while still keeping it protected from the sun.

The Importance of Summer Sun Protection

The UAE's summer heat is no joke. Intense UV exposure can cause sunburn, accelerated aging, dark patches, pigmentation, and long-term skin damage, including an increased risk of skin cancer. That said, even if you use sunscreen, UV rays can still harm your skin on a deeper level.

That's why dermatologists advocate for a more holistic strategy to sun protection. It's not only about avoiding burns, it's also about preventing cumulative sun damage, which ages and damages your skin's natural barrier. The good news is, there are plenty of ways to boost your skin’s protection even further.

The Top Professional Dermatology Tips Beyond Sunscreen

#1. Booking Regular Skin Assessments
A professional skin check can help you detect early symptoms of UV damage or pigmentation. From there, we can map out sun spots, dryness, and other hidden issues using specialized technology, allowing you to see what's going on beneath the surface.

#2. Repairing Any Sun Damage Using Laser Treatments
Even with good sun practices, damage can accumulate over time. Lasers such as PicoSure Pro, PICOWAY, and REVLITE are effective at treating sunspots, melasma, and uneven skin tone caused by UV exposure. These treatments employ light energy to break down pigment and activate collagen, making your skin seem cleaner and brighter.

#3. Hydrate and Protect with Medical-Grade Facials
A HydraFacial is perfect during the summer months. It thoroughly cleanses, exfoliates, and fills your skin with antioxidants, making it ideal for counteracting the drying effects of the sun and heat. We also recommend LaseMD for gently rejuvenating the skin, increasing moisture, and improving texture without downtime.

#4. Don’t Forget the Neck, Chest and Hands
These areas are often forgotten, yet they are just as vulnerable as your face. We provide customized treatments using equipment like CLARITY II, ENDYMED PRO, and POTENZA RF Microneedling to tighten, brighten, and even out the skin in these delicate areas.

#5. Increase Your Skin Barrier With the Right Products
During your appointment, we can offer dermatologist-approved products high in antioxidants, ceramides, and peptides to boost your skin's natural sun protection.
