Sun Damage Protection
Fact: Sun exposure damages skin. This damage eventually leads to premature sagging, wrinkling, dulling, freckling, and increased roughness. It can also lead to skin cancer. Sun exposure also slowly thins both epidermis and dermis. Skin thinning causes more frequent visible bruising as well as increased susceptibility to lacerations, and cuts and tears from minor trauma. Fair-skinned individuals are particularly prone to decreased skin appearance and functional integrity with sun exposure. Skin tags, pre-cancers, and even skin cancer are all directly and proportionally tied to cumulative sun exposure over the course of one’s life.
