Sun Damage SOS: Treatments to Undo Years of UV Exposure

We all love the warmth of the sun — but years of UV exposure can leave behind more than just memories of summer. Over time, sunlight breaks down collagen, increases pigmentation, and accelerates visible ageing.

The good news? Sun damage isn’t permanent.

At 1Face Skin Clinic, we use advanced, medical-grade treatments to reverse years of UV exposure, restore even skin tone, and bring back your natural glow.

If you’ve noticed dark spots, uneven texture, or fine lines, this guide will walk you through the best treatments to repair and rejuvenate sun-damaged skin.

🌞 What Sun Damage Really Does to Your Skin

Prolonged UV exposure affects the skin on multiple levels:

• Pigmentation: UV light triggers melanin production, leading to freckles, age spots, and uneven tone.

• Collagen Breakdown: The sun accelerates collagen loss, causing wrinkles and sagging.

• Redness & Sensitivity: Damaged capillaries can leave the skin blotchy or inflamed.

• Texture Changes: Skin may feel rough, dry, or lack that youthful radiance.

These changes can appear slowly — often showing up years after the exposure itself. But with modern technology, you can reverse much of the visible damage and prevent future harm.

✨ Top Treatments to Reverse Sun Damage at 1Face Skin Clinic

At 1Face Skin Clinic, our experts create bespoke plans to tackle every sign of UV damage using cutting-edge skin rejuvenation techniques.

Here are our most effective treatments for restoring sun-stressed skin:

1. Laser Skin Rejuvenation — Erase Pigmentation & Redness

Laser skin rejuvenation is one of the most powerful tools for correcting pigmentation, redness, and uneven tone caused by years in the sun.

It works by:
💡 Targeting excess melanin (the pigment responsible for dark spots)
💎 Stimulating collagen production for smoother, firmer skin
🌿 Reducing redness and visible capillaries

The result? A brighter, clearer, and more even complexion that looks naturally refreshed.

2. Chemical Peels — Resurface & Renew

For clients looking to improve texture and tone, chemical peels are an excellent choice.

They work by gently exfoliating damaged outer layers of skin to:
✨ Fade sunspots and discolouration
💧 Smooth rough texture
🌸 Boost cell turnover and collagen renewal

At 1Face Skin Clinic, we use medical-grade peels customised to your skin type — from mild brightening peels to deeper resurfacing solutions.

3. Microneedling — Collagen Regeneration from Within

Microneedling creates microchannels in the skin to stimulate natural healing and collagen production.

It’s a brilliant way to improve:

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• Sun-induced texture changes

• Dull or uneven skin tone

We often combine microneedling with skin boosters like Seventy Hyal or Profhilo for enhanced hydration and radiance.

4. Hydrafacial — Deep Clean & Detox Sun-Exposed Skin

If your skin feels congested or dull after sun exposure, Hydrafacial is the ultimate detox.

This multi-step treatment:
💧 Deep cleanses pores
💦 Exfoliates dead skin cells
🌿 Infuses antioxidants and hydrating serums

It’s ideal as a monthly maintenance treatment to keep sun damage at bay and maintain a healthy, luminous glow.

5. Skin Boosters & Bioremodelling — Rehydrate from Within

UV exposure depletes your skin’s natural moisture and elasticity. Injectable skin boosters restore both.

Formulas like Profhilo or Seventy Hyal deliver pure hyaluronic acid directly into the skin to:
💧 Replenish hydration
🧬 Boost collagen and elastin
✨ Restore firmness and plumpness

Think of them as an IV drip for your skin — hydrating and renewing from the inside out.

🧴 At-Home Skincare to Support Sun-Damaged Skin

While in-clinic treatments do the heavy lifting, maintaining results at home is just as important.

Our experts at 1Face Skin Clinic often recommend:

• Daily SPF 30+ (even in winter!)

• Vitamin C serums for antioxidant protection

• Retinol for skin renewal

• Hydrating moisturisers to strengthen the skin barrier

We can help you build a tailored skincare routine to support your treatment results and protect your skin year-round.
