Use sunscreen, avoid irritating cleansers to guard against skin cancer
A dermatologist with the Cleveland Clinic reminds us that sunburn can cause skin cancer and some people are at higher risk than others.
People with fair skin are most likely to develop skin cancer. Among the risk factors are if they have red or blonde hair, light eyes, develop freckles easily and have had sunburn in their lifetime.

The skin is going to be very fragile because you’ve damaged a layer of skin. They should avoid anything irritating like anti-aging or anti-acne products. You really want to be gentle, so use a gentle cleanser to rebuild that barrier.
To avoid sunburn, check the UV index before going outside. A sunscreen of 30 SPF or higher is recommended. Sunscreen should be applied 30 minutes before going out and every two hours afterward.
