Sun Safety Q&A

What is the best way to minimize the risk of developing skin cancer?

Answer: The best way to minimize the risk of developing skin cancer is through limiting exposure to sunlight during peak hours (11-3 o’clock), covering exposed skin when possible with long sleeves and a wide-brimmed hat, wearing sunglasses and using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.
