FAQs
What type of sunscreen should I use for daily protection?
Look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. It should protect against both UVA and UVB rays. For everyday use, lightweight, non-comedogenic formulas work well and can be worn under makeup or on their own.
How often should I reapply sunscreen?
Reapply sunscreen every two hours, or immediately after swimming, sweating, or towel drying. Even water-resistant sunscreens lose effectiveness over time, so regular application is key.
Can I get sun protection from clothing?
Yes! Wearing hats, sunglasses, and UPF-rated clothing adds an important layer of defense. Fabrics with a tight weave and darker colors generally offer better protection from UV rays.
Is sun protection necessary on cloudy days?
Absolutely. Up to 80% of UV rays can penetrate clouds, so using sun protection every day is important regardless of weather.
When should I schedule a skin check for sun damage?
Regular skin checks are recommended year-round, especially if you notice any changes such as new moles or spots that look different. You can request an appointment at DermaNuva Skin Laser Health for a thorough skin assessment.
