Sunscreen is an important part of a complete sun protection strategy. But #sunscreen alone isn’t enough to keep your skin safe. Seek the shade whenever possible, wear sun-safe clothing, a wide-brimmed hat and UV-blocking sunglasses. 💛 ⁠bit.ly/SunSafeLife

Is your skin safe from UV inside? Not always! Standard window glass allows UV-A to pass through and potentially affect your skin. If you’re sitting next to a window, those UVA rays hitting your skin are doing damage. Applying film can help. Sunscreen is still the best idea!

Lentingo maligna melanomas are most often found in adults on the areas most exposed to the sun, such as arms, legs, face, neck. This type of melanoma increases by prolonged sun exposure. Often found in older people who have spent years in the sun.
