Sun Exposure: What You Need to Know
The sun is essential for life and wellbeing. Sensible sun exposure supports vitamin D production, contributes to a positive mood, and plays an important role in overall health. However, excessive exposure can accelerate skin ageing and increase oxidative stress within the skin.
UVA and UVB Rays
The sun emits two main types of ultraviolet (UV) rays:
UVB rays
- Primarily affect the skin's surface.
- Responsible for sunburn.
- Stimulate melanin production and tanning.
UVA rays
- Penetrate deeper into the skin.
- Contribute to premature skin ageing.
- Increase oxidative stress that can damage skin structures over time.
A tan offers only limited natural protection and does not fully protect the skin from UV damage.
Gradual Exposure Is Best
The first sunny days of spring and early summer are often when the skin is most vulnerable. Gradually increasing sun exposure allows the skin to adapt more effectively and may help reduce the risk of sunburn.
Children Need Extra Protection
Children's skin is more delicate and sensitive to UV exposure than adult skin. Extra care should be taken to avoid sunburn, especially during the strongest sunshine hours.
Sun Protection Goes Beyond Sunscreen
A comprehensive sun protection strategy includes:
- Seeking shade whenever possible.
- Wearing a wide-brimmed hat and UV-protective sunglasses.
- Using protective clothing when exposure is prolonged.
- Applying and regularly reapplying sunscreen.
- Staying well hydrated.
Nutrition Supports the Skin
The skin's natural defence system relies on antioxidants. A diet rich in colourful fruits, vegetables, olive oil, and other antioxidant-rich foods may help support the skin during periods of increased sun exposure.
Mountain and Seaside Sun
UV exposure increases with altitude and is amplified by reflective surfaces such as water, sand, and snow. Extra care should be taken when spending time in the mountains, near the sea, or during winter sports.
Avoid Overexposure
Excessive sun exposure can contribute to:
- Premature skin ageing
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven skin tone
- Dehydration of the skin
- Increased oxidative stress
Enjoy the sun responsibly and give your skin the support it needs before, during, and after sun exposure.
