When summer is over the sunscreen should not be shelved. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends using a broad spectrum sunscreen year round with an SPF 15 or higher. Sunscreen application should become a daily habit, like brushing your teeth. Both UVA and UVB rays play different roles in damaging our skin. UVA has long been known to play a major part in skin aging (wrinkles) and initiate development of skin cancers. UVA is present with relatively equal intensity during all daylight hours throughout the year and can penetrate clouds and glass. These rays are also 20 times more abundant than their UVB counterparts, which are responsible for sunburns and are the leading cause of skin cancer. UVB rays can damage your skin year round, especially at high altitudes and on reflective surfaces such as snow or ice. There are many sunscreen options since people have different needs when it comes to sunscreens. Ask during the consultation to see what our recommendation is for sunscreen options.
