Basking in the sun is a summer rite of passage. Unfortunately, too much time outdoors can eventually give you visible skin damage. If you spend even a little time outside, you should examine yourself for signs of premature aging so you can stop it in its tracks.
According to the Mayo Clinic, there are a few telltale signs that the sun got the best of you:
Because sun damage not only affects your physical appearance but threatens health, it’s important to treat your skin and have your skin checked by a professional. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, overexposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays can cause skin cancer and pre-cancers over time. However, regular skin examinations and proper care can reverse signs of aging and reduce your chance of getting sick.
