iNews asked leading doctors and health experts to share their tips and advice for staying well this summer.
They asked Dr Ross Perry, GP and medical director of Cosmedics Skin Clinics to provide his advice on SPF. As a UK mole removal expert and skin cancer reconstruction doctor in the NHS, Ross has detailed knowledge of the importance of sunscreen and how to get the best protection. He says:
“Apply SPF the right way
“Always put SPF on at least 20 minutes before heading outdoors: it needs time to sink into the skin, otherwise you run the risk of burning, which can lead to skin cancer down the line.
“Never forget to put SPF on your eyelids or soles of the feet, especially if you’re playing sport or swimming. These areas are often forgotten about and are prone to burning.”
