Long-Term Benefits of Daily Photo-Protection With a Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen in United States Hispanic Female Population

摘要

The skin of color population has been growing significantly in the United states and globally. This requires specific dermatological attention and patient care strategies due to unique physiological conditions and clinical manifestations regarding skin of color. Concerning photoaging, although people with higher Fitzpatrick phototypes (III and above) in general have fewer visible signs of aging such as lines and wrinkles, they are more susceptible to certain pigmentary-related conditions including uneven skin tone, ashy skin and blotchiness, post-inflammatory hyper- and hypo-pigmentation, Melasma, and seborrheic keratosis.
