It is summer in Southwest Florida! In conjunction with seeking shade, wearing sun-protective clothing, and using adequate amounts of sunscreen every two hours, what else can you do to protect your skin? Heliocare may be what you have been looking for!
Heliocare is a dietary supplement made with the active ingredient, Polypodium leucotomos, which is a botanical extract made from a species of fern. It is an antioxidant that has anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, studies have shown that it helps protect against the harmful cellular changes and photoaging caused by sunlight. Polypodium leucotomos has also been shown to benefit people who are easily sunburned or have conditions of higher sensitivity to the sunlight. Heliocare may be used as a supplement, not a substitute, to your dermatologist’s recommended sun protective methods.
Heliocare is available in our Downtown Naples, North Naples, Bonita Springs and Fort Myers locations. Ask your dermatologist if Heliocare is right for you!
