Sun damage
Sun damage builds up over years of UV exposure and shows as sun spots, uneven tone, redness, rough texture and early lines. In a sunny climate like the UAE it is one of the most common reasons people seek skin treatment.
The right combination of light, laser, peels and medical skincare can repair much of the visible damage — and daily protection keeps it from coming back.
Signs of sun damage
- Sun spots and freckling
- Uneven, blotchy tone

Protection matters
Use broad-spectrum SPF 50 every day, reapply every 2–3 hours outdoors, and wear hats and sunglasses. Any new or changing spot should be checked by a dermatologist.

Common questions
Can sun damage be reversed?
Much of the visible damage — spots, tone and texture — can be improved significantly. Protection is needed to keep results.
How many IPL sessions will I need?
Usually 3–5 sessions about 4 weeks apart, depending on your skin.
When should a spot be checked by a doctor?
If a spot is new, growing, changing colour or shape, bleeding or itchy, book a dermatology consultation.
Is summer a bad time for treatment?
Some treatments can be done year-round with strict sun protection; your doctor may adjust the plan in peak summer.
