  • Title: Aging, sun damage, and sunscreens.
    Author: Green HA, Drake L.
    Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1993 Jan; 20(1):1-8. PubMed ID: 8420699.
    Abstract:
    Intrinsic aging deleteriously changes the structure and function of human skin. Acute and chronic sun exposure may accelerate the aging processes in skin. Patients should avoid sun during the peak hours of sunshine, wear protective clothing, and use sunscreens while outdoors. Acceptable medical and surgical treatments may be offered to patients who manifest the cutaneous consequences of aging and sun exposure.
