Men need more sun protection

      When it comes to summer skin care, one thing that has to be mentioned is sun protection. most female We all know a lot about sun protection, but male Don’t take sun protection seriously. male skin It is thicker than women, and the elasticity decays later than women, so there seems to be no difference whether you wear sunscreen or not when you are young. However, due to the cumulative effect of ultraviolet rays on the skin, if you do not protect yourself from the sun when you are young, as you age and the level of androgen decreases, the aging of the skin will accelerate, even more than that of women.

　　Even men need to wear sun protection if they need to stay outdoors for a long time. On the one hand, after exposure to the sun, the epidermis will definitely be damaged, and the barrier function of the skin will be weakened. After the barrier function of the skin surface is damaged, the loss of water will increase, manifesting as redness, swelling, pain, skin rupture in the later stage, and even skin tenderness and blistering in severe cases. ； On the other hand, too strong and prolonged ultraviolet stimulation will promote skin aging and increase the risk of skin cancer.

　　If you go out when the sun is strong, try to use a sun hat and sunglasses. If appropriate, you can also wear long-sleeved clothes to prevent direct sunlight. Shade can only reduce direct sunlight and reduce the invasion of ultraviolet rays to a certain extent. If you are outdoors for a long time, it is recommended to use sunscreen appropriately for sun protection. Men's skin is oily, so it is best to choose a relatively refreshing chemical sunscreen.
