What Is the Connection Between FOREO’s UFO™ 2 and Sun?

Sun can be very beneficial to your skin. But, if you expose yourself too much, it can cause more damage than good. And that’s where FOREO’s UFO comes to shine. Read to find out more.  

Does Sun mean vitamin D or wrinkles?

Sun helps your skin make vitamin D which is crucial for so many things. Namely, vitamin D is needed for normal bone function, just as for mental health. If you get too little sun, there is a bigger risk to develop some form of depression. Yet, if you expose yourself to the sun's rays too much, it can cause damage.  Some of the most consequences of sun exposure are wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, eye damage, and skin cancer, in a worst-case scenario. That’s why you just can not leave your house without sunscreen and SPF. Still, if you get some sunburns, beauty-tech got you covered.

LED light therapy is what you need

Gone are the days of walking around, disappointed and covered in yogurt as you try yet another home remedy to ease your sunburn. FOREO’s UFO is THE device that is going to help you after sun exposure. Turn this iconic device on, choose the red light therapy, and watch high-tech work its magic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDBPYLCtZvI   Namely, the red light therapy increases the body’s production of collagen and elastin, as well as an increased immune response that helps clear away dead cells and repair damaged ones. And UFO 2 features not only red light therapy but also cryotherapy (simply put - cooling) that will give you much-needed refreshment.

Do you have spots because of the sun? Use green LED light!

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition that occurs when the skin produces more melanin creating dark spots on the skin. Although it is usually harmless, it affects people of all skin types and it is something that can ruin your confidence.  There are many causes of this skin condition, but one of the most common is sun exposure which is just another extra reason why you should avoid exposure to the sun’s rays. Especially without SPF. that's why it will never be said too many times: use sunscreen every day of the year because prevention is always better than the cure! Still, despite all precautions, that irksome discoloration is sometimes stronger than your protection. Luckily, today there are many options for treating hyperpigmentation and some of the most effective are aloe vera, licorice, and green tea, but also a treatment that includes a green LED light.

Coconut oil and water can help, too!

The sun is shining and living is easy. You put on some SPF and you feel like you can conquer the whole world, right? That’s really lovely but even if sunburn was prevented, your skin needs good regeneration after sunbathing. After all, the sun (just like the wind) dries out your skin and if you don’t help your skin regenerate, wrinkles may occur.
