Sunburn not only causes discomfort but can also lead to long-term skin damage if not treated properly. Here’s an effective skincare routine using high-quality products like ZO Balancing Emulsion Cleanser, Daily power defense , ZO Hydrating Cream, and ZO Growth Factor Serum and Hale Derma to help manage and heal sunburned skin.


1. Gentle Cleansing

Start your sunburn care routine by gently cleansing the affected area. The ZO Balancing Emulsion Cleanser is ideal for this purpose. It's designed to clean without stripping the skin of its natural oils, which is crucial when dealing with sun-damaged skin. Apply the cleanser gently with your fingertips in a light, circular motion and rinse with cool water to avoid irritating the burn.


2. Soothe and Hydrate

Immediately after cleansing, it’s important to soothe and rehydrate your skin. Apply ZO Hydrating Cream liberally to the sunburned areas. This cream provides deep hydration, helping to restore the moisture balance to distressed skin, which is vital for healing. Its lightweight formula absorbs quickly, reducing the feeling of heat and tightness associated with sunburn.


3. Apply Daily Power Defense

Next, use ZO Daily Power Defense. This powerful serum is packed with antioxidants and DNA repair enzymes that help to protect and repair the skin from environmental damage. It aids in strengthening the skin’s barrier, which is especially important when the skin is compromised due to sunburn.


4. Repair with Growth Factor Serum

Once your skin is hydrated, apply ZO Growth Factor Serum. This product is key in supporting the skin's natural healing process. Growth factors are crucial for skin repair as they promote cellular turnover and collagen production, both of which are necessary for repairing sunburn damage. This serum will help speed up the recovery process, reducing the likelihood of peeling and long-term damage.


5. Soothe and Protect with Hale Derma

For additional soothing and protection, incorporate Hale Derma into your routine. This product is specifically formulated to calm and heal sunburned skin, reducing redness and discomfort. It helps in repairing the skin barrier and provides an extra layer of hydration.


6. Prevention is Key

Prevent future sunburns by applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day, wearing protective clothing, and avoiding sun exposure during peak hours. Regular use of these ZO products can also help strengthen and protect your skin from future sun damage.


By adopting this comprehensive skincare regimen, you can effectively manage the discomfort of sunburn and help your skin heal more rapidly. Remember, taking care of your skin post-sunburn is essential to prevent long-term damage and maintain healthy, resilient skin.

What Our Patients Say

I’m new here but have had an outstanding service and even better results!! I am very pleased and happy to have found this unassuming magic salon with exceptional technicians and technology as well as very reasonable prices. I was a little timid to start as skin is of course very important and fragile to entrust to someone new… but now all I can say is I can’t recommend this place enough to all my friends and family. If you love your skin leave it to Prestige Laser Studio and Tanja and her tech ladies! and you’ll be very satisfied! Thank you and can’t wait to see you again next week and again and then again! -AO
