With summer weather, Kaiser Permanente, which provides health care services to more than 12 million members in eight states, is urging people to protect themselves from the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation. However, as Dr. Megan Moore, a dermatologist with Kaiser, explains below, that doesn’t necessarily mean staying inside. Q: What is the most common misconception about being outside and sun protection? A: Many people still believe a tan is healthy and having a tan early in the summer will protect them from sun damage later in the summer. If the skin has changed color from sun exposure, this is a sign UV rays have reached the melanocytes (pigment cells). UV rays cause DNA damage and skin damage, even without getting a sunburn. UV radiation also can cause skin cancer and lead to premature aging. In fact, aging is caused by UVA rays that are longer and penetrate more deeply than UVB rays, but do not typically cause redness and sunburn.
