Most people have a love-hate relationship with the sun. We love the vitamin D generation it enables, the tan it can provide us, but dislike nasty sunburns and long-term skin damage. Finding the right balance is tricky.
Pigmentation
Skin hyper pigmentation occurs when the melanin content in your skin increases as a result of sunlight and the sun’s ultraviolet rays. While we all have melanin in our skin, some of us accumulate more melanin due to our exposure to the sun. The two most common forms of hyper pigmentation that you may see are age spots and freckles.
Age spots are found on areas exposed often to the sunlight, like the hands, chest, and face. This is why a lot of elderly people tend to have age spots.
Freckles are usually hereditary and can grow stronger or fade depending on your exposure to the sun. The more sunlight you soak up, the stronger your freckles can appear to be. Freckles are most often found in people with light skin and blond or red hair.
Wrinkles
As you age, your skin becomes thinner because the inner layer, called the dermis, begins to thin, allowing wrinkles to show through. While the thinning of the dermis will happen naturally to everyone, you can expedite this process by spending lots of time in the sunlight without using sunblock to protect your skin.
Skin Cancer
Cancer is generally caused when cells in your body begin to grow at an uncontrolled rate. You can get cancer in any part of your body but, more recently, skin cancer is becoming more prevalent as we live are living longer lives, with more prolonged exposure to the sun.
As you spend more time in the sun without protection, you gain more skin lesions and age faster, whether in the form of hyper pigmentation, wrinkles, or something else. Your skin’s immune function decreases and your skin ages prematurely.
The Simplest Solution is Sunblock
These skin conditions probably sound scary, but they can be avoided through the use of sunblock or repaired through skin treatment products and services like the ones offered here at D&K Medial Spa.
One of the best things you can do for yourself is put sunblock on your face every day of the year. The most common skin conditions tend to show up on the face because of how sensitive the skin is in this region. Wearing sunblock on a cloudy day, or during the winter may seem odd, but it help you keep your face and skin looking young.
