Science Behind Sunburn

• What is Sunburn?

Sunburn is the skins reaction to extreme
ultraviolet (UV) radiation commonly from the sun
causing severe damage to the skin.
Multiple sunburns accelerate premature ageing of
the skin leading to skin cancer.
Sunburn is the most obvious sign that you've been
sitting outside for too long. But sun damage
isn't always visible. Under the surface, UV light
can alter your DNA, resulting aging your skin.
Over time, DNA damage can contribute to skin
cancers, including deadly melanoma.
