The formation of age spots on the skin is influenced by a number of factors, both exogenous and endogenous. Endogenous factors include hormonal imbalance, genetics, and a number of diseases.
Exogenous factors, such as radiation, UV rays of different lengths and blue light (HEV radiation), affect the skin most actively. They cause the formation of the greatest amount of pigment, wrinkles of various etiologies, increase the vulnerability and dryness of the skin.

The sun as the main cause of age spots
It is a mistake to think that the sun brings only health to the skin. To produce enough vitamin D in the skin and stimulate the correct cellular processes, we need diffused light.
In summer, you can sunbathe early in the morning, while the sun is not very active, and with a lack of vitamin D in winter, you can replenish its reserves by taking the vitamin inside.

It is known that office workers who are exposed to the sun only a few times a year, develop various types of skin cancer much more often. This is due to the fact that sunny beaches are chosen for recreation and a person receives a much high dose of aggressive UV rays, albeit in a shorter time, which is a mechanism to changegene activity in melanocytes.
What happens to the skin when exposed to UV rays and blue light
Random exposure to the sun damages our skin. UV rays of types A and B, as well as blue light emanating from gadgets, plasmas, energy-saving lamps and lanterns, mercilessly disrupt the vital activity of cells in all layers of the epidermis and dermis:
- Radiation steadily reduces the number of Langerhans cells (immune skin cells), and normal melanocytes are damaged and mutated due to radiation;
- In DNA - mutated melanocytes, the activity of useful genes is turned off and the activity of harmful ones is gradually turned on;
- A melanocyte under the influence of large portions of radiation of all kinds is simply not able to work correctly.
When the skin is exposed to a huge amount of radiation, enzymes are synthesized in it, producing free oxygen and nitrogen radicals. They put melanin molecules into an excited state.
After sun care: what the skin needs after active insolation
Pigment molecules containing aggressive free radicals are transferred from melanocytes in large quantities to all other cells of the epidermis. Processes similar to an atomic explosion are activated in the skin. Free radicals continue to attack healthy cells for hours after sun exposure.
Emissions of waves of different spectra and lengths are the main culprits of chronic skin damage, as well as the formation of malignant tumors on it. After all, it is the change in the activity of melanocytes that provokes the formation of melanoma.
People who have a large number of moles, have Fitzpatrick skin phototypes 1-2, use
has the most negative effect on all layers of the skin. This is a high frequency high energy light emitted from monitors, laptops and electronic devices. Our skin is not ready for such radiation.

In a word, blue light
certainly destroys skin cells, while the depth of skin damage is much deeper than with UV rays in A and B.
In order to keep the epignetic profile of the cells relatively constant, the cosmetologist will offer a range of treatments in the office and a home care program.
How to minimize the harm from solar radiation and blue light
The destruction of epidermal and dermal cells can be minimized by using products containing an anti-blue light filter and powerful antioxidant complexes that serve as traps for free radicals.
Regular classic products with SPF screen against rays A and B will not protect the skin from blue light. The blue filter is present in
Derm Acte(Academie Scientifique de Beaute) and in the new Bene Bellum (Skintech Pharma Group) brightening line presented by by « ;Academy of Scientific Beauty».
Derm Acte Laboratories
Wrinkle Restoring Corrective Creamcontains a blue filter and ingredients that enhance cellular DNA activity, control the normal cycle of cell life and death, and enhance cell energy production . This way:
cell activity increases;- protein is produced;
- cell indicators tend to young.
- The cream contains several complexes patented by the Academie laboratory, which have a comprehensive effect. For example,
increase gene expression in the nucleus, and Oleo-brightening complex, consisting of three plants (white mallow, bran and liquorice) acts on pigmentation and brightens the complexion.
Resveratrol – miracle molecule in anti-aging products The blue filter in this cream is represented by a combination of polysaccharides and cherry blossom extract, and flax polycholosides act on the dermis fibers, have a lifting effect on the face oval. Advanced cosmeceutical care and innovative technologies are based on the experience of the Academie laboratory. The
Bene Bellum program also deserves special attention. The care is aimed at lightening the existing pigment and protecting it from the formation of a new one.5 main components
:
the company's patented blue filter (introduced into the formulation of each item);
vitamin A; tranexamic acid;
- hexylresocinol;
- ultra-stabilized vitamin C.
- This synergistic combination of ingredients works perfectly to even out skin tone.
- It's not enough just to get rid of the pigment, it is important to prevent its reappearance. Bene Bellum
A healthy lifestyle, self-care, protection of the skin from all types of radiation and radiation is the only prevention against violations of the functions of the cells of the epidermis and dermis.
