Frequently Asked Questions

What does a PA rating¹ indicate?
PA ratings measure the level of protection a sunscreen provides against UVA rays, which are associated with long-term skin damage and visible aging. While SPF reflects UVB protection, PA ratings range from PA+ (lowest) to PA++++ (highest), with more plus symbols indicating stronger UVA defense. SkinMedica® sunscreens achieve the highest classification of PA++++.

¹The UVA Protection Factor (UVAPF) is used internationally to determine UVA protection levels. The PA rating system (PA+, PA++, PA+++, PA++++) is utilized in Japan and is not required by the U.S. FDA for sunscreens sold in the United States.

Do Essential Defense sunscreens offer infrared (IR) protection?
No. Infrared (IR) protection is available only in TOTAL DEFENSE + REPAIR formulas.
