There\u2019s truly nothing better. But what\u2019s not so great? Dealing with a painful, full-body sunburn that has you wincing in agony for days<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, melanoma, the most dangerous type of skin cancer, has been on the rise. Cancer charities have been sounding the alarm, emphasising that most cases could be prevented with proper skin protection. Despite this, many of us still head out into the blistering midday sun without slathering on enough SPF.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, a bad burn might initially cause some embarrassment. But beyond a few days of resembling a bright red lobster, should we really be concerned about the lasting damage it can inflict? And just how risky is it to indulge in some tanning without applying sun cream?<\/p>\n<p>To shed light on these questions, we reached out to expert dermatologists to find out more about UV skin damage and its connection to more serious health issues.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-407711\" src=\"https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-SPF-copy-image-1-720x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>\nWhat happens to our skin when we burn?<\/h1>\n<p>The sun emits two types of damaging UV rays: UVA and UVB. These ultraviolet rays aren\u2019t great news for our skin, damaging both its surface and the deeper layers underneath.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUVB radiation, the type that causes sunburn, only penetrates as far as the top layer of the skin, known as the epidermis,\u201d explains Dr Hiva Fassihi, Consultant Dermatologist at OneWelbeck Skin Health and Allergy (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.onewelbeck.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">onewelbeck.com<\/a>). The good news, Fassihi says, is that it can be blocked by clothing and even glass, so we&#8217;re not constantly exposed to it.<\/p>\n<p>UVA is a different story. These rays penetrate much deeper into the skin. \u201cUVA is responsible for causing skin photoaging, which can result in a loss of elasticity, wrinkles, broken blood vessels and pigmentation,\u201d explains Fassihi.<\/p>\n<p>The worrying thing about UVA radiation is that it\u2019s not blocked by clouds, and it can penetrate through windows and thin clothing. So even on a gloomy day or when you&#8217;re chilling indoors, you&#8217;re still at risk of sun damage.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps unsurprisingly then, Fassihi says that we should take measures to protect ourselves from both UVA and UVB all year round, and not just during the sunny summer months.<\/p>\n<h1>\nHow safe is it to go tanning without SPF on the skin?<\/h1>\n<p>You&#8217;ve probably seen those viral TikTok videos touting the supposed perks of sunbathing, claiming they can miraculously cure seasonal affective disorder (SAD), relieve stress, and even magically treat skin conditions like acne. But here&#8217;s the deal: the risks outweigh the benefits, and it&#8217;s important to know the facts.<\/p>\n<p>According to experts like Fassihi, there&#8217;s \u201cno such thing\u201d as a safe tan, as \u201cUVR causes both direct and indirect damage to the DNA in our skin cells.\u201d DNA serves as our body&#8217;s genetic blueprint, guiding cell growth and function. When DNA damage occurs, it can disrupt the normal cell cycle and increase the risk of mutations, potentially leading to skin cancer.<\/p>\n<p>When our skin tans, it&#8217;s actually a defensive response. The darkening of the skin is a result of our body releasing a pigment called melanin as a protective measure against further damage from UV radiation. In other words, a tan is a clear sign that our skin has already sustained damage, and the body is trying to shield itself.<\/p>\n<p>But let&#8217;s talk about sunburn, which is even worse than a tan. Fassihi stresses the importance of \u201cavoiding sunburn at all costs\u201d, as it significantly raises the risk of various types of skin cancer, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma.<\/p>\n<p>BCC and SCC are the most common types, and while melanoma is less common, it is the most dangerous and can spread to other parts of the body if it\u2019s not detected and treated early.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-407712\" src=\"https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-SPF-copy-image-2-720x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>\nAre there any skin types or age groups that are more at risk than others?<\/h1>\n<p>\u201cPeople who are fair-skinned with lighter eye colours and freckles have a higher risk of skin cancer,\u201d notes Fassihi. This is because they tend to have less melanin, the pigment that provides some natural protection against UV radiation.<\/p>\n<p>But here&#8217;s the thing: Even if you tan and don&#8217;t burn, UV exposure can still heighten your risk of developing skin cancer. There are other factors to consider too. According to Dr Katie Lacy, Consultant Dermatologist at OneWelbeck Skin Health and Allergy, individuals with a family history of melanoma, those who are older, live in sunny climates, or work outdoors also face an increased risk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChildhood sunburn incidents can have long-lasting effects and substantially increase the risk of skin cancer over an individual\u2019s lifetime, so it\u2019s really important to protect children with a high spectrum SPF,\u201d adds Lacy.<\/p>\n<p>The number of sunburns we get can truly make a difference when it comes to our risk of developing melanoma down the line too. The more blistering sunburns we&#8217;ve endured throughout our lives, the greater our risk of melanoma.<\/p>\n<h1>\nHow can we protect ourselves from burning?<\/h1>\n<p>Rates of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cancerresearchuk.org\/health-professional\/cancer-statistics\/statistics-by-cancer-type\/melanoma-skin-cancer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">skin cancer are expected to climb by 9% by 2040<\/a>, despite the fact that a staggering 86% of all cases can be prevented, says Cancer Research UK.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI encourage my patients to wear sunscreen every day, regardless of how bright and sunny it appears outside. It is important to remember that UVA, the main cause of skin ageing, is present all year round, even on dull days,\u201d says Lacy.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re on the hunt for suncream, make sure you choose a bottle with not only a high SPF, but also at least 4-star UVA rating. \u201cThe sunscreen should be applied generously after cleansing in the mornings, and care should be taken to cover all exposed parts of the face and neck, including the delicate skin under the eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Waiting until you feel the sunburn creeping in and then slathering on sunscreen won&#8217;t do you any favours though. \u201cMany people don\u2019t apply their sunscreen 20 minutes before going out as recommended. Instead, they wait until they start to sunburn and then apply. By that point, it is too late. The damage is done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As for reapplication, it depends on how active you are and how much sun exposure you&#8217;ll be getting. \u201cFor example, on a dark wintery day in the office, the application of sunscreen in the morning as part of your skincare routine is likely to suffice. On a bright sunny day, with a lunchtime run planned, I would recommend reapplication of your sunscreen 30 minutes before going out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re planning to spend the entire day outside, it&#8217;s wise to reapply your sunscreen every two to three hours. \u201dThe newer spray-on mists are really easy to reapply and won\u2019t disturb makeup if you happen to be wearing any,\u201d says Lacy.<\/p>\n<p>She adds that the reason dermatologists stress reapplication is not because the sunscreen filters stop working after two hours. \u201cIn fact, sunscreens are becoming more sophisticated and many of the filters are now photo-stable (they don\u2019t break down in sunlight) for up to eight hours. The issue lies in the initial application, where we might miss certain spots on our skin, and physical activity or swimming can cause the sunscreen to rub off. That&#8217;s why I always recommend a reapplication every couple of hours while you&#8217;re out and about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, for optimal protection, remember that sunscreen should be part of a larger sun-smart approach. This means avoiding the scorching mid-day sun, staying hydrated with a water bottle, and covering up with a hat and some long-sleeved clothing. No sunburn, no problem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How risky is it to sunbathe without SPF?
