Repeated exposure to the sun has been shown to enhance wrinkles
and other aging effects of the skin. In addition, long-term
exposure to strong sunrays also increase the risk of getting
skin cancer. Even using sunscreen cannot protect your skin from
the irreversible effects of long-term sun exposure. If you wish
to avoid any of the negative effects the sun can have on your
skin, the best defense is protection. Large hats and clothing
are effective means of protection as well as a sunscreen with an
S.P.F. numbered 15 or greater. Consult a healthcare professional
for more information.
