Today is Sunscreen Protection Day, a day to remind patients of the sun’s UV rays and the potential for long-term skin damage. UV spots on the skin develop because of the absorption of UV light by the epidermal melanin just below the skin surface. While UV Spots might not be visible on the skin just yet, as the skin matures, the effects usually rise to the surface. Therefore, it is imperative to motivate your patients to be proactive in their skincare and sunscreen routine.
