Patient discussions
Patients should avoid exacerbating factors such as sun exposure, tanning beds, smoking, and second-hand smoke. They should be advised to take antiaging measures, including a healthy diet, exercise, using antioxidant skin care products, application of sunscreens with broad-spectrum ultraviolet (UV-A) and UV-B protection, and wearing sunglasses, a broad-rimmed hat, and other protective clothing when out in the sun.
