Skin Cancer Awareness Month

The Risks of Sun Exposure​

Despite its tanning abilities, the sun poses significant risks to our skin health. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light increases the likelihood of skin cancer, making protection essential.

Say No To Sun Tanning:

Reject the notion of a “healthy tan.” Whether from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds, UV rays damage your skin’s DNA, elevating the risk of skin cancer. Opt for safer alternatives like fake tan products instead.

Sunscreen: Your Skin’s Best Friend:

Sunscreen isn’t just for beach days. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily, even on cloudy days. Reapply after swimming or sweating to ensure continuous protection.

Cover Up: Hats and Protective Clothing:

Wide-brimmed ‘Crocodile Dundee’ hats shield your face and neck from direct sunlight, especially during prolonged outdoor activities like golfing. Consider UV-protective clothing for added protection.
