ABSTRACT

The present rate of skin cancers make us continuously think of the coverage problem of diverse photoprotection measures. The integral prevention programs include by the day campaigns that cause the use of adequate clothing, sunglasses, hats or umbrellas, as the use of better sunscreens formulated to disperse and reflect light as to absorb the greatest quantity of luminous energy. We have not been able to worldwide accomplish homogeneity, prove and catalogue the sunscreens available in the market. The false “security feeling” to diminish ultraviolet radiation still shows the poor effort and indolence to improve the atmospheric conditions that generate an infinity of cutaneous reactions and premalignant skin lesions.
