Protocol Role

The Sunscreen Clinical Protocol

UV exposure undoes every treatment — brightening, barrier repair, acne management, anti-ageing. Photo Defense Gel Sunscreen appears as a mandatory AM step in all five SkinQ Rx clinical protocols.

SPF 50+ with PA++++ blocks over 97% of UVB and provides maximum UVA protection — while Tinosorb M/S and zinc oxide handle blue light and infrared simultaneously. No white cast on Indian skin.

Clinical Decision Guide

Prescribing Photo Defense.

Suitable for all skin types. Particularly effective for Indian skin where white cast from conventional sunscreens is a compliance barrier.

✓ Prescribe as Daily AM Step

Every patient, every skin type — sunscreen is non-negotiable in any protocol
Indian skin (Fitzpatrick III–VI) where white cast prevents regular use
Patients on brightening protocols — UV triggers melanin overproduction
Post-procedure patients (peels, laser, microneedling) — inflamed skin is UV-sensitive
Acne patients — UV worsens PIH even in non-inflamed skin

Key Compliance Advantages

Gel texture — non-greasy, suitable for oily and acne-prone patients
No white cast — removes the primary barrier to daily use in dark skin
Blue light protection — relevant for patients using screens 8+ hours
Infrared cover — valuable for patients in warm climates
