Skin peeling after intense sun? It’s not renewal but UV damage defense, warns dermatologist Vanessa Perusso. Discover recovery steps and must-do care to heal safely.
Skin’s gradual post-sun recovery
Post-sun skin peeling flags ultraviolet damage. The body sheds injured cells as protection.
Vanessa Perusso outlines phases: 0-48 hours bring stinging, redness, tightness from inflammation. Days 3-7 show visible peeling and dullness. 7-28 days restore the skin barrier with proper care.
Skin needs time to repair. Forcing it leads to irritation and spots.
Steer clear of these recovery mistakes
Don’t pick at peeling skin. Skip scrubs, acids, alcohol, or strong scents. Long hot showers make it worse.
Key care steps right now
Boost hydration deeply. Choose soothing actives like aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, and D-Panthenol. Wear sunscreen daily, indoors too. Go for light textures.
Antioxidants such as vitamin E fight sun-induced oxidative stress.
