5 IMPORTANT REASONS TO WEAR SUNSCREEN DAILY We have heard how important it is to wear sunscreen to protect our skin, but do you know the specific reasons why? Our skin protects us from harmful ultraviolet radiation, which is why we should use sunscreen to protect us from damaging UV rays. Even on cloudy days, our skin is susceptible to the sun’s rays which can lead to skin cancer, discoloration, and wrinkles over time.

The biggest change you can make in your daily routine to help protect your skin is applying sunscreen each morning and again throughout the day. It’s also crucial that you contact your local Board-Certified Dermatologist if you notice any changes in your skin or new spots.

REDUCE THE RISK OF SUNBURN You can become sunburned from spending extended periods of time outside with no sunscreen, and also from using tanning beds or booths. If you develop a severe sunburn with blisters, reach out to your local dermatologist for help as they can assess your burn and suggest products to help with the pain and minimize scarring.

PREVENT THE SIGNS OF AGING

Repeated sun exposure with little to no protection can cause damage to your elastin, collagen and skin cells. Premature aging, is common in those who spend time in the sun without sunscreen – especially in their 20s and 30s. These skin issues are preventable with daily sunscreen use.

REDUCE YOUR RISK OF SKIN CANCER You can lower your risk of developing this disease using a minimum of SPF 30 multiple times each day. For even more protection, you can use a higher-level SPF. If you are spending prolonged time outdoors or will be in the water, you should reapply your sunscreen every two hours.

PREVENT SKIN DISCOLORATION These areas of discoloration are often called “sun spots” or “liver spots” and are usually tan to brown in colour. They often develop on the face, head, hands, and arms, and can affect both men and women. Applying sunscreen periodically throughout your day can help prevent these spots from appearing on your skin.

REDUCE INFLAMMATION When our skin is exposed to UV rays it can cause painful redness and inflammation. Wearing sunscreen each day helps to prevent inflammation from harmful rays. If you are prone to redness and have sensitive skin, look for a sunscreen with gentle ingredients such as zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.
