Summertime is here, which brings with it the scorching hot sun. Summertime brings lots of fun in the sun but, remember to protect ALL of yourself from the it’s harmful rays. Lips do not have the ability to tan, but they can definitely burn. If you are exposed to UVA or UVB rays on a regular basis, it is strongly recommended to use a lip protection product with SPF. This is especially
true for people who burn easily.
The use of Lip balm with an SPF may help prevent premature signs of aging, freckling, uneven coloration and possible cancer-causing effects of over-exposure to sun. Make sure the SPF product you use protects against both UVA and UVB rays. This is important for both outdoor and indoor (tanning bed) use.
Kissable
Our patients at 21st Cenruty Dental deserve to have kissable lips until they have no more desire to kiss or be kissed. Does that day really ever come?
