HOT ! La Roche-Posay Anthelios KA+ Sunscreen SPF 50+ 50ml

Long-term exposure to UV rays can damage skin cells and generate solar keratosis (also known as actinic keratosis). Solar keratosis can appear as persistent raised, rough, dry and scaly patches or lesions on areas of the skin with high sun exposure (face, hands, ears, lips, scalp and chest). They can be first signs of skin cancer development and vary in colour from skin colour to red pigmented. Solar keratosis most commonly occurs in those over 40 years old after extensive exposure to UV radiation from the sun e.g outdoor workers. Those with solar keratosis have a five times higher risk of developing a potential skin cancer in their lifetime.

Solar keratosis can appear as persistent raised, rough, dry and scaly patches or thickened lesions on areas of the skin with high sun/UV ray exposure (face, hands, ears, lips).
