Sunscreen is our first line of defense against damaging UV rays that can cause skin cancer and premature aging of our skin. Research has provided compelling evidence that shows daily use of sunscreen helps lower the risk of non-melanoma skin cancers, in some cases by as much as 50%. Australian researches recently conducted a trail analyzing latex impressions from the backs of subjects’ hands. After 4 ½ years they found that those adults who used a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily showed “no detectable increase” in skin aging. They also found that signs of skin aging – coarser skin and more wrinkling – was 24% less among subjects in the daily sunscreen group. 24% less! I’ll take those odds.

Laser treatments for skin resurfacing and skin rejuvenation provide excellent non-surgical results with no downtime. Not sure about your options or confused on where to start?
