Skin aging does not happen suddenly, but accelerates when exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long period of time. In other words, you can protect healthy, supple skin from photoaging by using sunscreen every morning as if you were taking care of your skin. If you don’t pay attention to sunscreen every day, like Hugh Jackman, you may regret not using sunscreen in 5 or 10 years.
What if you recognize the importance of sunscreen, but still find it uncomfortable to use? The solution is to use daily skin care products such as lotions, essences and balms that have UV-blocking functions.
90% of the causes of skin cancer are ultraviolet rays, prevention is daily UV protection.
The World Health Organization defines ultraviolet rays as a class 1 carcinogen. This is because it causes damage to the DNA of skin cells. There is an enzyme in the skin that repairs damaged DNA, but when exposed to strong ultraviolet rays for a long time, this enzyme cannot handle it and the DNA damage progresses. When damaged DNA accumulates, it causes mutations in cancer suppressor genes, causing or promoting skin cancers such as melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and basal cell carcinoma. Among them, except for the most lethal melanoma, most cases occur in older people, because UV damage accumulates over a long period of time. Now that we know that about 90% of skin cancers are caused by ultraviolet rays, what we need to do from now on is protect our skin from ultraviolet rays by using sunscreen every day, consistently, like applying lotion on the face.
