Post-Sun Exposure
Post-sun exposure refers to the period after skin has been exposed to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. This exposure can lead to various skin reactions, including redness, peeling, and increased pigmentation. It is essential to monitor the skin for any unusual changes, as prolonged exposure can increase the risk of skin damage and conditions like sunburn or skin cancer.
To care for the skin after sun exposure, it is recommended to hydrate and moisturize the affected areas. Using products with aloe vera or vitamin E can help soothe irritation. Additionally, applying sunscreen before future sun exposure is crucial to protect the skin from harmful UV rays.
