Product + :

An unprecedented 2-year clinical study in 30 subjects with the severe form of xeroderma pigmentosum (XPC) showed that Photoderm SENSITIVE, in combination with other photoprotection  measures, helps limit the appearance of new photo-induced skin damage and slow down the progression of a large number of lesions. Photoderm SENSITIVE is therefore particularly tailored to patients most prone to developing photo-induced lesions (history, over-exposure, genetic skin disease).

Biological mode of action

Photoderm SENSITIVE offers extreme anti-UVA and anti-UVB protection: SPF 50+ / UVA 50.

A BIODERMA innovation, the Défense Active exclusive patent found in Photoderm SENSITIVE increases the skin’s sensitivity threshold in cases of sun exposure through dual biological action:

  • Protection of skin cells, by limiting the appearance of sunburn cells and preserving the skin's endogenous anti-inflammatory properties, which reduces amplification of the inflammatory process induced by UVA and UVB rays.
  • Preservation of the integrity of the skin cells' DNA during solar radiation, by activating the skin's natural defences and limiting the production of free radicals by UVA rays, which is particularly desirable for people with a DNA repair deficiency. 

Instructions for use

Several times a day when exposed to the sun

  • Apply evenly and liberally before exposure (a smaller amount of product reduces the level of photoprotection).
  • Re-apply frequently, before and after swimming, rubbing and playing sports.

Do not expose babies or young children to the sun.

Excessive sun exposure is harmful to your health.
