Are you still using traditional sunscreens? Discover why full light technology is a game changer!
On National Sunscreen Day, experts urge Indians to upgrade sun protection. Dr. Aparna Santhanam highlights Full Light Technology, shielding against UVA, UVB rays, infrared radiation, and blue light from screens. This innovation combats premature aging and pigmentation, crucial in India's intense sun.
As we mark National Sunscreen Day, it's time to rethink how we protect our skin in an age where sun exposure and screen time go hand in hand. Traditional sunscreens have long focused on shielding skin from UVA and UVB rays, but research now shows that visible light and infrared radiation also contribute significantly to premature aging, pigmentation, and changes in skin texture.
Enter Full Light Technology: a next-gen innovation that broadens protection to cover the entire light spectrum. Dermatologist and Skin expert Dr. Aparna Santhanam explains, 'Full spectrum exposure can lead to long-term skin damage, and Full Light Technology offers an essential safeguard against these effects.' Unlike conventional sunscreens, this technology shields skin not just from UV rays, but also from infrared radiation and visible light, including blue light emitted by digital devices.
'Think of it as an upgrade to your sun protection,' says Dr. Santhanam. 'It's not just about sunburn anymore. It's about preserving radiance, firmness, and skin tone over time.' Sunscreens with Full Light Technology combine high-performance protection with added skincare benefits, making them indispensable for maintaining healthy, youthful-looking skin.
Further enhancing this evolution is the role of Artificial Intelligence.
AI-powered skincare tools can now analyze your skin and lifestyle to recommend sunscreens tailored to your unique needs. 'With AI, skincare becomes both personalized and precise,' adds Dr. Santhanam.
In a country like India, where intense sun exposure is a year-round reality, upgrading to sunscreens with Full Light Technology isn't just a seasonal recommendation - it's a daily essential. The damage caused by visible light and infrared radiation often goes unnoticed until signs like pigmentation, dullness, and fine lines begin to surface.
Full Light Technology fills the critical gap left by traditional sunscreens, offering protection that's both preventive and corrective.
As awareness around holistic skincare grows, dermatologists advocate for its everyday use, even indoors, to combat cumulative exposure from both natural and artificial sources. With National Sunscreen Day serving as a timely reminder, adopting advanced sun care solutions ensures that your skin remains protected, resilient, and future-ready.
Let's go beyond the basics today. Opt for smarter protection with Full Light Technology and let innovation shield your skin every day.
