How can I protect my skin from sun damage?

Sun damage also called photo damage is the a condition of the skin that is altered due to prolonged exposure to sun. This usually happens due to frequent exposure to the damaging UV rays which is a form of radiation that comes from the sun. There are two types of UV (ultraviolet) rays, the UVA and UVB.

UVA penetrated deep into the skin and are the major source of early aging and skin care while UVB rays access the surface of the skin and the main source of sunburns. To be able to protect yourself and prevent sun damage you should: 1. Protect yourself by applying a Sun Protection Factor that is 15 or higher.

These type of cream or lotions should be applied to the face, ears, lips and neck. 2. Take cover to minimize sun exposure by looking for shade if you are outdoors.

Wear firmly, woven, loose-fitting, full length clothing and wide brimmed hat to add more protection. You can also wear sunglasses to block UV rays. 3.

Avoid the sun during 10 am and 4pm because this is the time that UV rays are at its strongest. 4. Have a regular appointment with your dermatologist to help ensure that you will have healthy and beautiful skin.
