Sunscreen

Rate this item (0 votes)

We're often asked, "what is the Best sunscreen". There are many answers to this question: The 1st answer is one you will use.  Even when using sunscreen, most people do not use enough product.  It is important to reapply it every 2 hours while outdoors, or after coming out of a swimming pool or sweating.

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 include Parsol 1789 & will chemically affect changes from the UV rays.  Over time, the chemicals in these chemical blockers will break down, emphasizing the importance of re-application.

Many of the products out there are equivalent, but there are definitely differences between products. We offer a number of different sunscreens including Solbar and Vivite.  Additionally, we have many sunscreen samples from Aveeno, Eucerin, Neutrogena and Cetaphil for our patients to try.
