ACNE PRODUCTS & SKIN CANCER...

ACNE SKINCARE CHICO, CA   916SKIN - ACNE TREATMENT CLINIC


The use of anti-aging products or acne skincare products requires extra precaution when going out into the sun. Most anti-aging and acne care products are designed to force the skin to slough its outer most layer. While sloughing leaves the skin smooth and radiant, it also leaves it more vulnerable to damage by ultraviolet rays if left unprotected. To thoroughly protect your skin, use broad spectrum sunscreen and reapplied every 2 hours - rain or shine!

WHO HAS THE GREATEST RISK FOR GETTING SKIN CANCER:
-Everyone is at risk for getting skin cancer.  Some are more susceptible than others.
-Fair skinned individuals who have a tendency to freckle and burn easily.
-Those who have experienced repetitive sun exposure.
-Those taking immunosuppressive drugs (ie: organ transplant recipients).
-Those exposed to arsenic.
-Those who have had intermittent, yet, acute sun exposure leading to a sunburn; especially burns that occurred during childhood.
-People with many benign melanocyte nevi as well as atypical nevi.

WHO HAS THE GREATEST RISK FOR GETTING MELANOMA:
-Everyone is at risk for getting melanoma. Some more than others.
-Those who have experienced intermittent, yet, acute sun exposure leading to a sunburn; especially burns that occurred during childhood or adolescence.
