Okay, so you have sun spots.   Thankfully,  there are ways to get rid of them.  Laser treatment is a permanent way of ridding yourself of your sun spot.  Usually you will need to go a few times to be effective and each session lasts about twenty minutes.  The downside to laser treatment is the cost.  Five hundred plus dollars is hard for anyone to swallow during our economic depression. 

Even if you already have sun spots, it is never too late to start caring for your skin.  A significant amount of damage occurs when you are driving in your car.   Car windows prevent 100 % of UVA rays but they do nothing to prevent UVB rays which are responsible for the damage to your skin.  You can install UVB tint to your car which is fairly affordable.  Of course, using sunscreen EVERY DAY, is the best way to protect your skin.  Of course, you have to apply it often for it to actually work.  Applying it once is not enough.  

If you buy a bottle of sunscreen before summer and still have some left at the end of summer, you aren’t using it enough.  You should apply sunscreen every 20 to 40 minutes.  Also if you are taking acne medications you should be extra careful because they increase your risk of sunburn.   You should also avoid the sun during the peak hours of the day, also known as the hottest part of the day which is from noon to around five depending on your area.   During this time of the day, UV rays are the strongest and if you insist on being out during this time, you should apply your sunscreen much more frequently.   If you apply these steps to your skin care, sun spots shouldn’t become a problem and you are much more protected from cancer.
