Unfortunately, fun summer activities increase our exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays, which in excess, can cause many different problems for our skin and health. You can’t avoid sunlight completely (nor should you), but there are ways to avoid too much sun exposure and to protect your skin when outdoors.

• Use sunscreen (at least an SPF 40) to help protect non-covered skin.
• Seek shade when outside, especially during midday hours.
• Protect your skin with clothing that covers your arms and legs. Hats can also protect your head, face and neck. Wear sunglasses that block UV rays to protect your eyes and the skin around them.

July is Hyperpigmentation Awareness Month. Here’s what you should know about this skin condition to help you keep your skin tone bright and even.

What is Hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation is a condition where small or large discolored patches of skin develop, often on the face and neck, in the form of age spots, freckles or melasma.

What Causes Hyperpigmentation?
Your skin has special cells called melanocytes, which create the melanin or pigment that gives your skin its color. When these pigment cells become damaged, they can produce too much melanin, which causes dark patches of skin to form.

How is Hyperpigmentation Treated?
Hyperpigmentation can often be treated with retinoids as well as clinical-grade skincare products. Dermatologists can also perform procedures that may help reduce its appearance.
