It is said that the amount of UV rays increases at a stretch from early spring and peaks from June to August. Ladies and gentlemen, are you all about UV Rays? 

If you think you're still okay and don't care about UV protection, you may "accidentallyget a sunburn".
You can't let your guard down during the rainy season or on days spent at home.
However, I hear thatmoderate exposure to UV raysis actually important for our health. 

We interviewed Ms. Ayako Ikegami, Director of"Magnolia Dermatology Clinic" about basic information about UV rays, bad effects, good effects, and proper care.
Get along well with UV rays and spend the coming season in good health. 

Even on a mild sunny day, the amount of UV rays is about4/5 of midsummer!

"The amount of UV rays reaches its peak in summer, but this season is about 4/5 of that.,I mean, we've got a good amount. If you go out without applying sunscreen because the sun is milder than in summer, you'll 'accidentally get a sunburn' and accumulate damage to your skin," says Dr. Ikegami. 

UV rays are dividedinto UV-A and UVB, and UVAis said to cause wrinkles and sagging, and the damage is accumulated. On the other hand, UVBcauses the skin to turn red immediately and affects the skin color by creating the cause of blemishes. 

“For example, even twins with the same genes accumulate different amounts of damage depending on whether they are exposed to UV rays or not.V.Sagging and wrinkles will progress and you will look older” 

Even if you think you're okay now, the accumulated damage will appear in the future... If you think that, you have to take proper UVprotectionnow.

Dr. Ikegami, who teaches UV care throughout the year at the clinic.
“In winter,you can use C C cream to care for your skin, but from early spring onwards, it’s better to apply sunscreen.”
Considering the burden on the skin in daily life,SPF 30 seems to be enough.SPF50is recommended foroutdoor leisure and when you are outdoors for a long time. 

"What I want you to be careful about is the amount you apply. I see many people applying a small amount of high value, but please be aware of applying a generous amount. However, if you apply a large amount at once, it will be uncomfortable. It looks natural, so it's a good idea to paint over it little by little." 

In order to comfortably apply it every day, it is important to choose a product that is gentle on the skin and has a feeling of use that you like.Recent sunscreens have a much better texture, are easy to remove, and have reduced the burden on the skin. Please find your favorite and wear it firmly. 

Accidentally sunburnedPlease be careful. After basking in the sun,Vitamin C! 

“Sunburn causes inflammation in the skin, which generates active oxygen and damages the skin. First of all, it must be suppressed.” In addition to topical medicines, the clinic sometimes prescribes intravenous drips. . 

"If you know in advance that you will be outdoors for a long time today, it is a good idea to take vitamin C beforehand. Also, recently there are plenty of "drinkable sunscreens", so I recommend that as well. minimize damage,You can expect beauty effects.” 　

The point is to actively take vitamin C from now before the full-scale summer arrives.

UV rays are not 100% bad guys. It is necessary to bathe in moderation

The image of"ultraviolet rays = accelerated aging" is emphasized, but according to Dr. Ikegami, they are necessary for maintaining our health. 

“Sunlight is essential for the synthesis of vitamin D. Vitamin D is a nutrient that enhances calcium absorption and prevents osteoporosis, and is also involved in immunity. It doesn't work, and it can cause allergic reactions and weaken physical strength.It's also said to affect mental aspects, and it's said that extreme avoidance of light can make you feel depressed." 

There are other benefits of sun exposure. “It activates mitochondria and increases energy production. 

summary

Japanese women tend to dislike UV rays to the extreme, and some even wear parasols, hats, sunglasses, and gloves to protect themselves from the sun. 

However, as the teacher said, moderate exposure to UV rays is essential for our physical and mental health. However, there is no denying the adverse effects on the skin. 

“The ideal is to take proper UV protection, take vitamin C, and enjoy the light outside,” saysDr. Ikegami. Please useLypo-Cto get along with the sun.
