The difference usually isn't genetics or expensive creams, but the sun. Dermatologists call this process photoageing and estimate it is responsible for most visible signs of skin ageing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is photoageing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photoageing is premature skin ageing caused by UV radiation. While natural ageing is slow and even, UV rays speed up the breakdown of collagen and elastin and damage the cells that produce them. The effect builds up over years and at some point becomes visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to recognise photoageing on your skin?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Deeper wrinkles<\/strong> on the forehead, around the eyes and mouth, earlier than age alone would bring<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Pigmentation spots<\/strong> on the face, hands and d\u00e9collet\u00e9<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Rougher skin texture<\/strong> and enlarged pores<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Loss of firmness<\/strong>, especially on the cheeks and jawline<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Persistent redness<\/strong> and broken capillaries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best test is a comparison: look at the skin on the inside of your upper arm, which almost never sees the sun. That is your skin without photoageing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can photoageing be slowed down?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It can, and very effectively. The first rule is consistent sun protection all year round, which we wrote about in the article on <a href=\"https:\/\/svmarija.com\/en\/kako-zastititi-kozu-prije-plaze\/\">protecting your skin before the beach<\/a>. The second is skincare with proven ingredients such as retinol and vitamin C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And can existing damage be repaired?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Partly, yes. The skin is able to renew itself, it just needs encouragement. INDIBA radiofrequency warms the deeper layers of the skin and wakes up fibroblasts, the cells that make collagen. Over a series of treatments the skin gets firmer and denser and fine lines soften. No needles, no downtime and no ban on sun exposure, which sets it apart from most other treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read what the treatment looks like and what you can expect on the page <a href=\"https:\/\/svmarija.com\/en\/anti-age-tretman-lica-bezbolno-dokazani-rezulati\/\">anti-ageing facial treatment<\/a>, a za procjenu va\u0161e ko\u017ee rezervirajte besplatne konzultacije u <a href=\"https:\/\/svmarija.com\/en\/indiba-tretmani-zagreb\/\">Zagrebu<\/a>, Splitu ili Zadru.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most visible signs of skin ageing aren't down to age, but to the sun.
