It’s that time of year; take these precautions to prevent skin cancer– a very real threat to all

That headline wasn’t meant to put a damper on your enjoyment of the outdoors this summer, unfortunately it’s a truth that we will just have to abide by or pay dear consequences. Dr. Audrey Kunin, founder of DERMAdoctor Specialist Skin Care (dermadoctor.com) recommends using an SPF 30 product daily. She says that people stay out in the sun too long but don’t realize that the damage adds up; the more time you spend in the sun, the more you are at risk.

Dr. Kunin also offers many facts, and practical important steps to take to protect your skin and how to discern the quality products from the chaff. With more than 1 million cases of skin cancer in the United States alone, it’s high time we all take this form of protection seriously before it’s too late.
