According to the American Academy of Dermatology, sun exposure is the most preventable risk factor for all skin cancers, including melanoma. Ultraviolet A (UVA) is primarily responsible for premature aging, wrinkles, and tanning, while Ultraviolet B (UVB) causes sunburns. Both types can severely damage the skin and cause skin cancer, and they are more intense during the summer months, at high altitudes, and in locations close to the equator. Even on cloudy days, UV radiation can cause skin damage. Luckily, we can still have fun in the sun and decrease our risk of skin cancer by taking simple precautions like wearing protective clothing, applying sunscreen with a SPF of at least 15 daily, and avoiding tanning beds.
