When was the last time you went outside and put sunscreen all over your body, outside of a beach day? For most people, regular SPF protection on your face is a no-brainer. But a new study by the medical research nonprofit Mayo Clinic makes a strong case for a regular all-body sunscreen routine.
When compared to earlier decades of skin cancer research, women across the board bore longer-term increases in carcinoma diagnoses:
Women 30-49 experienced the greatest increase in BCC diagnoses; whereas, women 40-59 and 70-79 experienced the greatest increase in SCC.
Meanwhile, the rate of new diagnoses for SCC for men dropped between 2000 and 2010, but rates of new diagnoses for BCC remained similar to earlier decades’.
