Heliocare 360° Capsules

Heliocare 360° Capsules are recommended to complement topical photoprotection (sunscreen) during the months when the sun is at its highest intensity and longest solar exposure. These capsules are especially beneficial in helping to protect those who are at high risk of skin cancer, pigmentation and skin ageing. They should not be used in place of a high factor, broad-spectrum sunscreen but to provide an extra layer of protection.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: Heliocare 360° Capsules in addition to the application of sunscreen, proper photoprotection consists of seeking shade, wearing photoprotective clothing and hat, and using sunglasses. UV filters have been well established to be effective against the adverse effects of ultraviolet radiation. With an increased understanding of the effect of visible light and infrared radiation, studies on antioxidants and oral and subcutaneous topical forms of photoprotection are ongoing.
