Sun Safety: Apply and Reapply Sunscreen
Friends, although it may not feel like it, summertime is drawing near! As our days stretch longer and the sun shines brighter and hotter, we are sure to find our sunscreen stash will require a refresh! But did you know that the American Academy of Dermatology recommends that EVERYONE wear sunscreen daily for the safety of their skin despite the season or perceived sun exposure.
We all are aware that sunscreen minimizes the penetration of damaging, cancer causing UV rays into the skin, but did you know it can also minimize photoaging and wrinkling of the skin leading to a healthier more youthful appearance? At Carmel Cosmetic & Plastic Surgeons we offer a variety of sunscreens from ZO Skincare and Revision Skincare to suit your every need.
As all look forward to celebrating the warmth and fun of the summer season, remember to wear your sunscreen not only this summer but daily. Don't forget, sunscreens should be reapplied approximately every two hours when outdoors, even on cloudy days, and after swimming or sweating!
