Sunscreen

We're often asked, "what is the Best sunscreen". There are many answers to this question: The 1st answer is the one you use. Even when using sunscreen, most people do not use enough product, and they then fail to reapply it every 2 hours while outdoors.

The 2nd answer to which sunscreen is the best- is one with both UVA & UVB Protection- there are physical and chemical blockers in sunscreen. Physical blockers include zinc and titanium dioxide- they physically block the UV rays from your body. Chemical blockers will chemically affect changes from the UV rays.

Many of the products out there are equivalent, but there are definitely differences between products. We offer a number of different sunscreens including Solbar, Vivite and Anthelios by La Roche-Posay, which has Mexoryl/Ecamsule- the 1st new FDA approved UVA blocker in 20 years.

Gardasil

HPV stands for, "Human Papilloma Virus" and is the cause of Cervical cancer and warts including genital warts. Gardasil is the name of the new vaccine for prevention of HPV types 6, 11, 16 & 18- these HPV types are comprehensive for 70% of cervical cancers and 90% of genital warts. Currently, this vaccine is approved for females aged 9-26. It is also indicated in males ages 9 through 26 for the prevention of genital warts caused by HPV Types 6 and 11.

Like any vaccine, this vaccine does not treat disease that is already present, instead it acts by preventing the disease from coming about in the first place. Prevention of HPV may be a lot easier to deal with than treatment of this disease. Las Vegas Dermatology offers the HPV vaccine as a service to its patients.
