Sunspots are usually flat and irregular in shape and appear several shades darker than your natural skin tone. They can appear on your hands, chest, back and even feet.

Skin Care – Tips for Getting a Safe Tan

Thursday, December 1st, 2005

While many people crave a deep bronze tan, most of us don’t take enough precautions to protect our skin from the suns rays and possible long term damage it can cause. The outer layer of your skin known as the epidermis is filled with tiny little melanocytes or pigment causing cells. These cells are responsible for production of melanin which gives the skin it color. The suns rays contain ultraviolet or UV light. This UV light can be broken down into UVA and UVB rays. When the melanocytes detect UV rays they will trigger an increased production of melanin. This increased melanin production is what causes the skin to change color. While tanned skin may be attractive, melanin’s true purpose is to protect the deeper more sensitive layers of the skin from radiation. UVA rays are stronger and able to penetrate deeper into the skin past the melanin protection. Here are some tips for helping you keep your skin as healthy as possible.
