Sunscreen
Mesoestetic USA, Encino, Calif, introduces Dermatological Complete Sunscreen with SPF 50, which protects against sunburns caused by UVB radiation and against UVA rays—the leading cause of photoaging and skin cancer. The sunscreen’s filtering protection comes from a combination of organic ingredients that absorb UV radiation before it can penetrate into the skin. Titanium dioxide (formerly called sunblock) scatters and reflects UV radiation. The filters have been encapsulated in micro pearls to prevent the occlusive effects on the skin pores produced by liposoluble organic filters, particularly at high concentrations. Dermatological Complete is water-resistant, nongreasy, perfume-free, and is suitable for use on the lips and bald scalps. It also may be used post chemical peel treatments, microdermabrasion, and IPL/laser treatments.
