Though many people suffer form sunburn, many of them fear using it as it may lead to develop skin cancer. How it would be, if the market provides you with solution for both? Yes, research is on for a new sunscreen with ingredient that not only actively repairs sun-burnt skin, but also helps prevent the onset of skin cancer, research published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology shows.
Unlike conventional sunscreen lotions, the new ingredient not only filters UVA and UVB sunlight, but also releases an active ingredient capable of mopping up free iron, released when the skin burns.
This reduces the inflammation and pain that goes with sunburn, also preventing the build up of harmful sunlight-generated free radicals – that may lead to developing skin cancers.
