Dr. Pellegrini: How to Properly Expose Yourself to the Sun

With the arrival of warmer weather and initial sun exposure, there is an increasing desire for a golden, uniform, and natural tan. However, this also brings a dramatic increase in the risk of melasma. Preventive measures and dermatological examinations are essential.

Our commitment to skin care and prevention has led us to expand our team with the expertise of Dr. Cristina Pellegrini, a specialist in dermatology and venereology.

We asked Dr. Pellegrini for advice on preventing skin cancers. Her response: "Use a quality sunscreen and reapply it frequently, approximately every 2 hours. Use SPF 50 or higher protection. The sunscreen prevents solar burns while still allowing for even tanning without erythema."

Dr. Pellegrini consults at Istituto Image every Tuesday. To schedule your dermatological consultation, call 02 781628.
