Familiar? Over the summer sun, salt and chlorine use up the skin's moisture reserves and speed up its ageing, and the bill usually arrives at the end of August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The good news is that skin knows how to recover, it just needs a bit of help. Here's what really does the job, in the order it makes sense to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happened to your skin over the summer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">UV radiation breaks down collagen and elastin, the fibres that keep skin firm. The sun also dries out the surface layer of the skin, so it becomes rough, flaky and more prone to fine lines. What you see as a \u201cnice colour\u201d is actually the skin's defensive reaction to stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step one: bring back moisture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Drink more water.<\/strong> It sounds obvious, but dehydrated skin can't renew itself.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Switch to richer skincare.<\/strong> After summer your skin needs hyaluronic acid, ceramides and panthenol, and fewer harsh exfoliants in the first weeks.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Don't forget your body.<\/strong> Your shoulders, d\u00e9collet\u00e9 and legs got the same dose of sun as your face.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step two: stimulate renewal from within<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Creams work on the surface, but the collagen the sun has broken down is rebuilt in the deeper layers of the skin. Skincare has limited reach there, which is why after summer it makes sense to consider treatments that work deeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">INDIBA radiofrequency at 448 kHz warms the deeper layers of the skin and prompts cells to produce new collagen. The treatment is painless with no downtime, and after a series of treatments the skin becomes denser, better hydrated and firmer. Read more about the technology itself in the article <a href=\"https:\/\/svmarija.com\/en\/sto-su-indiba-tretmani\/\">What are INDIBA treatments<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When to start treatments after summer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">September and October are ideal. Sun exposure goes down, the skin is no longer in defence mode and can move into the renewal phase. A series of treatments through autumn means you go into winter with your skin in better shape than it was in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ako niste sigurni \u0161to va\u0161oj ko\u017ei treba, do\u0111ite na besplatne konzultacije u <a href=\"https:\/\/svmarija.com\/en\/indiba-tretmani-zagreb\/\">Zagrebu<\/a>, Splitu ili Zadru.

You can do the first yourself, and there are treatments for the second. The worst thing you can do is nothing, because the effects of summer add up year after year.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sun, salt and chlorine use up your skin's reserves of moisture and collagen over the summer.
