Acne And Sunlight


Many teenagers believe that sunlight treats acne. It is possible that the rays of the sun may reduce the population of the bacteria P.acnes. But this has not been established scientifically as yet.

Sunrays are dangerous for the skin. Sunrays age the skin faster. Wrinkles, blotches, sunspots form because of sunrays. The sunrays cause skin cancer.

Most of the acne medications make the skin sensitive to sun. If you are using some of these medications such as Retinoids, your probability of getting sun burn increases. It is better to protect yourself from the sun.

Do not try to treat acne by exposure to sun. Protect yourself from sun.
