How does it repair sun damage?

Patches of dry, flaky skin and slight tabs gradually disappear with regular use of the product. It took two pots to finally remove a tab on my forehead so not an overnight treatment.

Hi -That's the problem - it doesn't. My dermatologist recommended it for that so I bought it, but I can honestly say it made no difference at all. Just a nice expensive skin cream. I'm not going to buy it again.

Hi, I think reasonably well. However, I also get facials religiously every 6 weeks and I'm sure that contributes. I will say that since I added this product in my daily routine a year ago, I have noticed an all around difference and have received more compliments in the past 4-6 months and nothing else changed. So I attribute part of the change to this product.

Just wrap tape around it. I actually use the wrap to prevent sun scald in the summer.

Hmmm! It comes out brown and greasy, I've used it only when in the sun. So I guess an accelerator. It absorbs into the skin rather quickly. Have used it with and without additional sunscreen...still amazing.

No. You are looking for wrong product. This one is not a sun screen. It eliminate or erase any mark from skin, even preexisting for long time.

It works just like any other "lightening" or "brightening" product. It chemically reduces the appearances of hyper-pigmentation caused by acne scares or sun damage.

If you can set it up in direct sunlight for for a few hours before you use it, that will help.

I am a current licensed esthetician in several states and will answer that question in 2 parts. 1. It will not make your sunburn feel any better - such as a cooling aloe gel. 2. It is excellent for extremely dry skin which a sun burned skin would be initially. If you first put a small amount of oil in your hand, pump some Vanicream on to the cream, rub your hands together and gently rub on your skin. The Vanicream is so thick that it can be difficult to smooth onto the skin - a small amount of a good oil such as Jojoba or RoBathol Oil will work great. Good Luck.

I don't remember. I've discontinued use. It's not as effective as I originally thought. After months of use it did very little to improve my sun damaged skin. The improvements I saw were quickly erased once I I spent some time in the sun. You just reminded me to update my review. Thanks.

My family has used it several times on scratches and cuts w/o any skin discolorations. I use a colloidal salve on sun damaged skin w/o any unwanted effects.

It will work better to fade scars that are new. Old scars, sun damage and hormonal damage are going to take much long to fade and this product will not really be effective. Your best bet for old scars, hormonal, and sun damage is to get a doctor perscribed lightning treatment.

I had some darker pigment on my nose from an accident and it does seem to lighten it. Keep in mind, you'll have to use a sunscreen. This product works for me.

This lotion is only to be used for tanning beds. I'm not sure what it would do in normal sun.

It will deepen the tone a little, and it lasts. However if the sun has bleached the color unfortunately nothing will work except a refinishing.

Hello! Yes, this will help smooth out that line of demarcation as it lifts the sun damage. Also using a hydroquinone based bleaching cream will accelerate the results as it shuts down melaninn production. Thank you!

I believe what you meant was that you use a product with hyaluronic acid. yes there is a difference. the product that you referring to has a unique combination of ingredients that help repair sun damaged skin. this unique product has a high percentage of vitamin C that is stabilized through the use of hyaluronic acid and thus supporting the increased production of collagen.

It should be curing by UV light, not temperature. If there is Sun, I believe it can work. Cloudy will make it cost long time.
