• Opis:
  Introduction Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun poses numerous risks to the skin, ranging from premature aging to serious health conditions such as skin cancer. UV radiation can penetrate the skin's surface, causing damage to its cells and DNA, which can lead to the formation of wrinkles, sunspots, and other signs of aging. Therefore, consistent and effective sun protection is essential for maintaining the health and vitality of the skin, as well as reducing the risk of sun-related skin damage and diseases. Aim of the study The objective of the study is to conduct a thorough investigation into different aspects of photoprotection and its effects on the skin. This entails assessing the effectiveness and safety of sunscreens, as well as evaluating the impact of sun-protection clothing on skin health. Materials and methods The purpose of this review is to assess the current literature of the effectiveness of the various sun protection measures. The literature was reviewed in the Pubmed, Google Scholar data base. Results Prolonged UV exposure incites photoaging, carcinogenesis, and immunosuppression, amplifying the risk of skin malignancies. Sun-protective clothing, with adequate UPF ratings, emerges as a pivotal element in mitigating UV-induced skin damage, notably reducing the development of pigmented moles and melanoma. Furthermore, effective sunscreen usage, coupled with broad-spectrum protection, is essential in averting UV-induced skin damage and curbing the incidence of skin cancer. These findings emphasize the imperative of comprehensive photoprotection strategies, integrating sunscreen application, sun-protective clothing, and individual risk assessment, to safeguard against solar-induced skin damage and mitigate the prevalence of skin cancer.
