What is solar elastosis and why does it occur on the skin?

Finally the good weather begins! I admit it... I am a lover of the sun, of the heat and of going to spend the day at the beach. However, what can happen to my skin if I expose it to UV rays without sun protection?

What is the connective tissue of the dermis?

The skin is made up of different layers and, although the most common thing is that I always talk about the epidermis (the outermost layer), today we are going to focus on the dermis (the deepest layer) and its connective tissue .

The connective tissue of the dermis is made up of collagen and elastin fibers and is responsible for supporting and giving firmness and support to the skin , as well as joining and supporting other tissues (such as bone, blood or lymphatic).

But what happens if the connective tissue of the skin is broken ?

That is what happens when a person suffers from elastosis or flaccidity . As we have already mentioned, our skin loses collagen and elastin over time . This fact causes the visible signs of aging to appear on our face and makes our epidermis feel more rigid and rough .

What is solar elastosis?

However, our dermis can also undergo structural changes as a result of factors other than time, such as ultraviolet rays . In this case, if the connective tissue of our skin is broken due to exposure to UV rays , we would be talking about solar elastosis .

So, when we suffer from solar elastosis, our skin loses all its elasticity because the rays reduce the amount of fibroblasts (cells that help form connective tissue), so much less collagen is produced .

Due to this, symptoms such as deep wrinkles , spots , roughness or a more yellowish tone appear in our epidermis . These types of signs are called premature aging of the skin .

How to treat solar elastosis?

It is necessary to take into account how solar elastosis is cured … In truth, the only 100% definitive solution is prevention . It is important to apply high sun protection every day, especially when we are going to be progressively exposed to the sun . In addition, the consumption of beta-carotene and antioxidants also come in handy when it comes to avoiding solar elastosis .

Are solar elastosis and skin cancer related?

On the other hand, it should be noted that being a skin problem caused by ultraviolet rays , solar elastosis increases the risk of skin cancer , since both are caused by the same reason.

Therefore, as we have said, take into account protecting your skin from the sun and keeping it hydrated with a Revitalizing Moisturizer adequate to provide you with the collagen and elastin you need.

Very good creams

I've been using the Box Good Face since January and I'm delighted. The skin is always soft and I notice that my face has more luster. Highly recommended. In addition, the customer service is very good.

I can already feel the difference

I've been trying the Box Good Face routine for two weeks now, applying it as recommended in the morning and at night, and I couldn't be happier. In addition to my skin feeling softer and my eyelids less tired, my partner has acknowledged that my skin is no longer as red and that it feels smoother and more hydrated, healthier, after only two weeks of use! I am super happy and see no reason to cancel my subscription. It seems that BOXSR is here to stay. Highly recommended. Also the shipping is very fast, it arrived the next day in a small box, comfortable and with the products very well protected.

Great

It leaves the skin smooth and perfect for daily care before leaving the house or before going to sleep. I use it daily morning and night, just before BOXSR creams and it's perfect. I recommend it 100%.

I repeated

I liked it so much that I bought it again. Non-greasy texture, it leaves my skin moisturized all day long. I apply it after the serum and it's great.

The Box that will convince you from the start

It was my first box (because I've already tried them all) and I was hooked. Moisturizing, freshness and scent captivated me. The truth is that when I took the test for my skin type, the Anti-Aging one was recommended, and I bought this first one wrongly. Sometimes there is nothing like being wrong to be right. After trying the sample I decided to try it and every day I am happier with that step. I have been a customer since February 2020 but have not wanted to share the review until I had a full time experience and feel I had to share. Very happy with the use of the products and I assure you your face will notice the change. Keep the offers coming whenever you can it gives us consumers a helping hand.

What I was looking for

This is the first time I've used the kit and it's great. I can already see the results after two weeks. It's the perfect size to take with you at all times, since I travel a lot for work.

Great

The truth is that I had my doubts about using creams because of how greasy they leave the face but they really are wonderful. 100% recommendable.

creams in general

I have been using boxsr products for two months and the truth is that I am very happy, people say that I look better, I also notice that my face is younger, the truth is that I was using another brand of creams for a while and the truth is that I am using these now and I am delighted with BOXSR.

Anti-wrinkle box

This is my second order. I tried the good face box and it convinced me. The oil free moisturizer is the only one that really works, out of all the ones I have tried. I hope the anti-wrinkle one is just as effective.
Very good idea to number the bottles according to their use.

Excellent purchase

I am a doctor and being in the hospital all day with a mask, it favors acne, and associated with the fatigue and stress of work, I decided to take care of myself a little.
I have only been using it for a few days and so far I have noticed an improvement in the feeling of fatigue.
The oatmeal soap leaves the face very clean, without tightness.
The serum has a very comfortable texture that absorbs quickly.
The eye contour is a bit dense, but it applies smoothly and does not leave a white trace.
And finally the oil-free moisturizer, although the initial sensation is that the face is a little greasy, it disappears immediately and so far I have not had any pimples...in fact I have dried one that came out as a result of wearing the mask all day. It also has a sun protection factor (you have to be aware that in countries like Spain with a lot of sun, you have to protect yourself from UV rays to avoid malignant processes in the skin).

I recommend you to buy and try the product. It is an investment in your health.

PS: the customer service is exceptional. Thank you!
