At Stockton Dermatology, patient education is a cornerstone of what we do, especially when it comes to sun safety. With summer in full swing, many Arizonans are eager to enjoy the sunshine, but it’s essential to do so responsibly.
We encourage everyone to watch this informative segment from AZFamily, which highlights the serious risks of waiting for a high UV index, just to get a tan. The report outlines the potential dangers to your skin and overall health, emphasizing why it’s so important to protect yourself year-round, not just on the hottest days.
Whether you’re planning time outdoors or simply commuting to work, understanding the impact of UV exposure is vital. As dermatology professionals, we urge our patients and community to stay informed and make skin-safe decisions.
Your skin is worth protecting. If you have concerns about sun exposure or need personalized advice on UV Safety Tips, contact our team at Stockton Dermatology.
