What happens when you get a sunburn?

The signs and symptoms of sunburn differ according to the skin phototype and length of exposure to UV radiation.  Bright red appearance of a sunburn develops on all exposed skin, beginning within 30 minutes to 8 hours, peaking at 12 to 24 hours. If excessive exposure, edema (swelling), skin pain, itching and blistering may occur, which if widespread, may lead to systemic symptoms such as chills and malaise. Such reactions are generally followed by itch and desquamation (skin peeling) over a period of days to weeks. In severe cases of sunburn, severe skin burning may result in second-degree burns, dehydration, secondary infection, shock or even death.

Your skin remembers every burn. Let’s make this summer sun-smart. Know the signs, protect your skin.
