Sun Proof Your Skin
Before summer heats up, protect yourself with skin-cancer prevention strategies-no matter what your age.
20s
Apply SPF 15 or 30 sunscreen everyday. Women in their 20s or more likely than older women to get sunburn, according to one study. Just 5 severe burns doubles the risk of melanoma (the second most common cancer in 20 somethings).
Research shows that women in their 20s are most likely to tan, either outdoors or in tanning beds. The latter are specially dangerous. They can emit UV rays 20 times as strong as sunlight. To offset your risk, begin mole checks.
30s
Look for suspicious bumps or patches of skin. They could be signs of basal cell carcinoma (BCC). It’s the most common type of skin cancer. It used to affect people over 50, but now many of my BCC patients are in the 30S”, says Ariette Kauvar, M.D., associate professor of dermatology at New York University School of Medicine.
Why the change? BCC is caused by cumulative skin damage, and young people are spending more time in the sun without sunscreen. What to look for: BCC often appears as a translucent mole with a blood vessel running through it, an open sore that won’t heal, or a small patch of red irritated skin. If you notice any of these signs, tell your dermatologist.
40+
Add antioxidants to your sunscreen ritual. As you age, your skin becomes more susceptible to free radicals-unstable molecules that can damage skin cells, raising the risk of skin cancer. Research suggest that topical antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C and E, can neutralize the molecules so they can’t hurt your skin.
For women 40 and over the best sun protection is to apply an antioxidant before sunscreen. Bare skin absorbs the antioxidants better, says Dr. Kauvar.
