Sunshine makes us feel good. Most of us like a tan as it makes us look good and more healthy. One problem is that sunlight makes our skin age quicker. The UV (ultraviolet) light of sunshine may give us the vitamin D we need that can reduce the risk of brittle bones and some cancers, but the sun is also considered to be one of the major causes of skin cancer.

Each year more men than women die from skin cancer. The problem is men ignore skin changes and moles more than women. Here are some facts about skin cancer.

Freckles and Skin Damage
Freckles, more common in people with fair complexions, are always darker than their surrounding skin as they are deposits of a dark pigment called melanin. Freckles can be red, yellow, tan, light-brown, brown, or black.

Are freckles a sign of skin damage? Well, yes they are. Freckles are a warning sign that your skin does not like the sun light. The best way of preventing sun damage is to apply high factor sunscreens and to wear a hat.

Sun Damage is Not Reversible
The bad news is sun damage is not reversible. If you have spent a lot of time tanning in the sun or have not used protective clothing or sunscreens in the past there is nothing you can do about the skin damage you already have. The only thing you can do is be responsive to skin changes and seek advice on freckles and moles that change shape and/or color.
