At the beginning of May, an article on the topic of sun protection appeared in the daily newspaper Kurier. Under the title “Towards the Sun”, Univ.-Prof. Dr. Tamara Kopp from JUVENIS explained the importance of sun protection and how to incorporate it into your daily routine. She also debunked myths surrounding sunscreen. She further emphasized that sun protection should be a matter of course and applied every day.UV damage, which develop in childhood and adolescence, become noticeable in adulthood. Malignant melanomas, white skin cancer as well as skin aging can be the result of too much sun.
Sun protection: The filter myth
One of the most current topics regarding proper sun protection is that of filters, as Dr. Kopp explains in the interview. This is because many chemical filters are suspected of being harmful to health. However: modern chemical filters are often preferable to mineral filters. Older chemical variants such as the filter octocrylene are problematic. In conversation with the Kurier, the JUVENIS dermatologist advises checking the list of ingredients on sun products for outdated filters such as homosalate, benzophenone, mineral filters, and specifically octocrylene. Many sunscreens also already include a note on the packaging stating that they do not contain the latter filter.
Make UV protection part of your routine
The most important tip from Dr. Kopp on the topic of sun protection in conversation with the Kurier? He must become the routine become! Not only on vacation or during leisure time should attention be paid to it, but above all in everyday life. Ideally it is part of the daily morning routine. This way patients take the best precautions against long-term damage such as skin aging and skin cancer. This is best complemented by the annual Mole check at the dermatologist.
