Hi, this is Dr. Yuki! It is getting summer! How have you been so far?
As a seasoned plastic surgeon, I know the importance of balancing sun enjoyment with skin protection. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation, while natural, can harm your skin significantly. Here’s how to protect your skin effectively.

Understanding UV Radiation

  • UVA: Causes deep skin damage, leading to aging.
  • UVB: Causes sunburn and skin cancer.
  • UVC: Blocked by the atmosphere and does not reach the Earth.

Effects of UV Exposure

  • Premature Aging: Wrinkles and age spots.
  • Sunburn: Painful and damaging.
  • Skin Cancer: Increased risk with prolonged exposure.
  • Eye Damage: Can lead to cataracts and macular degeneration.

Practical Protection Tips

  1. Use Sunscreen: Reapply every two hours.
  2. Wear Protective Clothing: Long sleeves, hats, and sunglasses.
  3. Stay Hydrated: Keeps skin healthy.

My Expertise

With many years in plastic surgery, I offer advanced treatments and preventive measures to keep your skin healthy. From top-notch sunscreens to rejuvenation treatments, my goal is your radiant skin.

If you got sun damages

DO NOT GIVE UP ON IT! We have many solutions which undo the damages. My favorite one is “Mesona J”, which is a kind of iontophoresis, and made in Japan, more than 70 times effective than ordinary iontophoresis.
