Choosing the Right Sunscreen

The board-certified team at Skin & Laser Dermatology Center is committed to helping patients across Northern Virginia understand their skin health. In this article, we break down what you need to know and when to see a dermatologist.

Understanding Sunscreen

Early awareness makes a meaningful difference in outcomes. Knowing the signs to look for, the risk factors involved, and the treatment options available helps you make informed decisions about your care.

• Know your personal and family risk factors
• Perform regular self-examinations at home
• Schedule annual skin checks with a dermatologist
• Seek evaluation promptly if you notice any changes
