Abstract
Sunlight includes infrared light photons, visible light and ultraviolet light (UVL) photons. UVL is the main cause of skin cancer and photo-aging. It is absorbed by chromophores in the skin, such as melanin, DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids and aromatic aminoacids. The absorption of UVL results in photochemical reactions involving reactive oxygen species (ROS) with the consequent damages to the skin. UVL, through different photochemical modifications forming cyclobutane dimmers, produce mutations to cells phenomenon called neoplasic transformation. The protection of the skin against sunlight is the main action to prevent skin cancer and photo-aging. Photo-protection is an effective method for preventing skin damage and its consequences. The objective of this consensus was to discuss and propose a Statement Position Paper on photo-protection and useful measures for their application by the dermatologist and general practitioner in Mexican population.
