Unfortunately, those are also prime hours for tanning. r "Staying in the sun during that time slot is never wise, Dr. Russell said. Sunbathers should also be aware that snow, sand and water reflect the suns rays and intensify their burning effect. Ultraviolet rays will even penetrate cloth if it Is porous and when wet, clothing allows 20 to 40 percent of the ultraviolet rays to pass through to the skin.

Were at two disadvantages here, Dr. Russell said. The atmosphere is thinner so extra care-pjus- t be taken to avoid burning. The air is drier so moisturizers are necessary to prevent drying and aging. Melanin, the pigment in the upper layer of the skin giving hair and skin its color, is stimulated by the ultraviolet rays of the sun. The result is tanning. Tanning takes time and eventually the skin darkens and thickens slightly to prevent ultraviolet rays from penetrating further and burning the skin. So, many times people will bum without even realizing it, " he said. The redness often does not show up until two or three hours after exposure and it can continue to develop up to 24 hours later. , Dr. Dennis Russell Dr. Russell stressed the importance of a very gradual buildup of exposure time for developing a good tan and avoiding damage to the skin. A tan is actually a protective reaction of the skin when slowly developed, he But most people arent patient said. enough to stretch it out. They want it immediately so they sit in the sun all day or go away for a weekend of sun hoping to get a great tan. The suns rays reach their maximum intensity at noon when the sun is directly Every year dermatologists get calls from people who sit in the sun too long, he said. And once the skin is burned, the damage is done. We cant make the burning sensation go away or make the blisters and peeling disappear. But, he noted, some of the discomfort can be relieved. If the sunburn is fairly mild, a cooling bath will help. A moisturizer and an emollient should be applied to skin to restore resiliency. Cooling, wet compresses might help. Aspirin will relieve some of the swelling and pain.
