How to prevent wounds from becoming sun spots after sunburn and take good care of them

In the summer, the sun is scorching and the ultraviolet rays are very strong. If the skin is exposed to the outside without paying attention to sun protection, it is easy to get sunburned and form sun spots. New wounds are easy to get sunburned and form sun spots more easily if you do not pay attention to sun protection. So how to prevent the formation of sun spots?

How to prevent sunburn wounds from becoming sun spots

1. Dermatologists say that many people develop sun spots on their skin after being sunburned in the summer because they do not take good care of their skin. Experts say that you must take good care of your skin after sunburn to avoid skin damage. Once sunburned, you must first moisturize your skin, preferably with mineral spray.

2. After sunburn, you should choose the correct method of moisturizing your skin. It is best to use mineral spray to gently replenish moisture for your skin. However, you must wait until the skin has cooled down before spraying. Because when the skin temperature is too high, if you cool it down immediately, the temperature difference will be too drastic due to thermal expansion and contraction, and the skin will easily develop allergic symptoms and cause secondary damage. After using the spray, immediately absorb the moisture with tissue paper, cotton pads or a clean towel, otherwise excessive evaporation will take away more moisture from the skin. Because a large amount of water has been lost from the skin, you should also increase your daily water intake. Whenever you feel dry mouth, drink plenty of water (preferably boiled water, and it is best to stop drinking carbonated drinks or health vinegar on a daily basis), but be careful not to eat irritating foods such as coffee, tea, and chili.

3. After the skin is replenished with a large amount of water, you can use non-irritating products to calm the skin. Gels containing natural ingredients such as aloe vera and witch hazel are most suitable for calming sun-exposed skin. If you do not have such skin care products at hand, you can use cold water or skim milk to wet compress the sunburned area; if you have vitamin E capsules at home, you can also cut the capsules open and apply the vitamin E directly to the wound, or wrap ice cubes in cloth for ice compress, which can also achieve a good calming effect and reduce skin sunburn.

4. Sunburned skin has a stronger need for breathability. Never apply nourishing oils or ointments containing oils and petroleum jelly, as these will make it impossible for the skin to breathe and cause local skin necrosis.

5. Even if the skin does not show sensitive symptoms such as redness, swelling, or stinging after sun exposure, it is also a fact that the skin is dry and the pores are enlarged. Sunscreen and powder floating on the surface of the skin no longer have any skin care effect, so it is best to cleanse the skin thoroughly in time. Remove makeup, cleanse the skin, and finally use a moisturizing essence to give the skin a thorough relaxation and nourishment, even the problem of pigmentation will be alleviated.

Through the above article, I believe everyone has learned how to care for skin after sunburn. Try not to use cosmetics on the skin. In addition, during the recovery period of sunburn, it is best to use acidic cleansing and skin care products to avoid irritating the skin. However, after sunburn, it is best to go to the hospital for timely treatment to prevent the formation of spots. Finally, I wish everyone to stay away from sun spots and be beautiful and generous.
