Dermatology Specialists shares skincare tips

As we prepare for National Healthy Skin Month in November, it’s important to think about what steps you are taking to protect your skin and keep it healthy for years to come.

Making simple changes in your daily routine- such as wearing SPF 30 or higher, seeking shade during peak sunlight hours, and wearing protective clothing including hats and eyewear- can help greatly in preventing the harmful effects of UV radiation.

In addition to these steps, it’s important to schedule a full-body professional exam with a dermatology provider. During a skin exam, the provider will examine the areas you are comfortable with, checking for anything that looks concerning or out of the ordinary. If you have any skin-related concerns, this is a great time to discuss them with a professional. If further testing or treatment is necessary, the provider can answer any questions you may have during the appointment.
