Sunscreens Do They Work

• Melanoma and non-melanoma malignancies are the most common of all cancers as a matter of fact, they account for about half of all cancers.
  
• With what we now know about the damaging effects of the sun on our skin it is more important than ever to take proper precautions whenever exposure to the sun is unavoidable.

• Sunscreens though effective are limited in their ability to keep your skin protected and healthy.

• Keep in mind that the use of sunscreen is merely a tool and is not meant as a free pass to spend unlimited hours baking in the sun without suffering the consequences.

• One last point... The diminishing ozone layer of our atmosphere results in an increase of the harmful UV rays from the sun.

• What your grandparents may have gotten away with as far as safe time spent in the sun is not relevant to the conditions of today.

• Be skin smart! You will look younger and have healthier skin for years to come.
