7.14.21 TV4 Sunscreen
Sunscreen is an essential purchase in the summer. But with so many types and different SPF numbers, how do you know which one is right for you and your family? That was a question NBC4 reporter Matthew Herchik recently asked Frank Morocco, Jr., DO, a dermatologist with OhioHealth Physician Group in Marion.
"Three of the most important things to look at on a label would be that a sunscreen in SPF30 or higher," said Dr. Morocco. "You want to make sure that it is broad spectrum, which means that it blocks UVA and UBA rays. And you also want to make sure they are water resistant."
