What are the infrared frequencies from the sun?

It’s a cold winter’s day. Is there anything better than being able to find a sunny space where you can enjoy basking in a little warmth? That’s infra-red you’re feeling – the frequencies of sunlight that provide heat. Alas, this can be damaging to you, but first, let’s break down the three categories of infra-red – infra-red A, B, and C.
Infra-red A goes deep into the skin where it creates free radicals that damage it, the same way that UVA or visible light from the sun would. Infra-red B and C do not penetrate as deeply as infra-red A but these frequencies cause direct aging of the skin. They do this via a process of reactions that cause the mitochondria in each cell to make less pro-collagen – the first step in collagen production. They also activate the cells to make a collagen-breaking enzyme called collagenase. These frequencies of infrared also cause inflammation that triggers pigmentation production. This occurs especially where melanocytes are already more active, for example, in areas affected by melasma or hormonal pigmentation. If the inflammation isn’t turn off, it will worsen the signs of already aging skin by causing incomplete healing. In this way, the sun’s heat can most certainly cause premature aging while worsening pigmentation.

Can conventional sunscreens protect me? 

Nope. No conventional sunscreens can protect you from infra-red frequencies. However, Lamelle Helase 50+ can protect your skin from the effects of the infra-red spectrum. It contains an innovative ingredient, a TRPV 1 inhibitor, that stops the triggers that cause the damage activated by infra-red frequencies. This unique ingredient also reduces the risk of aging and inflammation associated with infra-red heat damage to your skin.
