How do I protect my skin from UV rays?

In India, 85% of the population, ignores the largest and most vital organ of our body…SKIN.

With rise in the average temperature and depletion of the ozone layer due to green house gases, we are being exposed to high amount of harmful cancer causing UV rays.

Adopting the following simple precautions would go a long way in having a healthy skin

Shade, clothing and hats provide the best protection – applying sunscreen becomes necessary on those parts of the body that remain exposed like the face and hands. Sunscreen should never be used to prolong the duration of sun exposure.

The best way make sure you are protected is to reapply sunscreen often(ideally after every 2 hrs between 9am to 5pm - especially in the Indian subcontinent and tropical region) even during monsoon. Sunscreen with SPF 30 - 50 should be good enough, and SPF rating anything above that would be just a number.

Remember these basic points:

1. Limit time in the midday sun:
The sun’s UV rays are the strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. To the extent possible, limit exposure to the sun during these hours.

2. Watch for the UV index:
This important resource helps you plan your outdoor activities in ways that prevent overexposure to the sun’s rays. While you should always take precautions against overexposure, take special care to adopt sun safety practices when the UV Index predicts exposure levels of moderate or above.

3. Use shade wisely:
Seek shade when UV rays are the most intense, but keep in mind that shade structures such as trees, umbrellas or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Remember the shadow rule: "Watch your shadow – Short shadow, seek shade!"

4.Wear protective clothing:
A hat with a wide brim offers good sun protection for your eyes, ears, face, and the back or your neck. Sunglasses that provide 99 to 100 percent UV-A and UV-B protection will greatly reduce eye damage from sun exposure. Tightly woven, loose fitting clothes will provide additional protection from the sun.

5. Use sunscreen:
Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30+ liberally and re-apply every two hours, or after working, swimming, playing or exercising outdoors.Avoid sunbathing
Sunbathing damage the skin and unprotected eyes and are best avoided entirely.

Keep yourself hydrated.

Above all, remember to consult your Dermatologist.

A healthy skin is healthy you!
