SUN PROTECTION
FOR BABIES AND CHILDREN

Children’s skin is thinner and its pigmentation system (ability to “tan”) is still developing, which means it lacks the natural defences that help provide adult skin with some protection against harmful UV rays.

كيف يمكنني حماية بشرتي من أشعة الشمس؟

يشكّل التعرّض لأشعة الشمس خطر الإصابة بحروق الشمس بالإضافة إلى المخاطر طويلة الأمد المتمثّلة في علامات تقدم السن المبكّرة وسرطان الجلد. للحفاظ على الأمان عند التعرّض للشمس، يجب اللجوء إلى الظل في الفترة من 11 صباحًا إلى 3 مساءً، وارتداء قبعة وملابس واقية ونظارات شمسية. بالإضافة إلى تلك التدابير، يجب استعمال الواقي من أشعة الشمس UVA-UVB واسع النطاق بكمية وفيرة كل ساعتين على أي منطقة مكشوفة من الجلد.

هل يساعد بخاخ التسمير في الحماية من الشمس؟

بالطبع لا! يتفاعل بخاخ التسمير مع الخلايا الميتة على سطح البشرة "لصبغ" البشرة. وليس لذلك علاقة من أي نوع بدفاعات البشرة ضد الشمس. بخاخ التسمير أكثر أمانًا من التسمير التقليدي، لكن يجب متابعة حماية بشترك من الشمس بعد استخدام بخاخ التسمير باستخدام واقٍ من أشعة الشمس UVA-UVB ذات نطاق واسع.

ما عامل الحماية من أشعة الشمس (SPF)؟

SPF اختصار يعني "الحماية من أشعة الشمس". يرتبط بقدرة الواقي من أشعة الشمس على حماية البشرة من أشعة UVB التي تسبب الحروق. كلما زاد الرقم، زادت الحماية. عند التواجد في أشعة الشمس، يوصى باستعمال عامل حماية SPF 30 على الأقل كل ساعتين. يُتطلب استعمال كمية بحجم كرة الجولف على الجسم بالكامل.

BABIES SHOULD HAVE 
NO DIRECT SUN EXPOSURE

Dermatologists recommend that infants under 3 should not be directly exposed to sunlight at all and should always be protected by sunscreen/clothes even when they are in the shade. Older children need to learn sun-smart behaviours such as regularly applying broad-spectrum sunscreen, wearing protective clothing and avoiding exposure during the sunniest hours of the day (10 am to 4 pm).

PLAY SAFE IN THE SUN

In the article below, you will find a whole host of tips to teach your children the sun-smart behaviours they need to stay safe while enjoying the sun.

How to prevent
sunburns

 
"I'm just kind of a regular guy I've always used sunscreen when I go to the beach or if I'm going to be outside for a long time but I've never really thought about it too much of course now I have a family and my son has much more fair-skinned than mine so it's a much bigger concern for me that it's been in the past my question for you is what is your recommendation for the best way to treat some small burn when it happens so first you need a very good SPF 50% screen it must be a very high pot spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays the cream must be also very water resistant to fit in all situation so apply sunscreen all over your child's body uniformly with a circular movement and apply it every two hours at least you should also not expose your kids to the Sun between and 4:00 p.m. because at this time the UV rays are the most intense even in the shade your son is not well protected and the UV rays can penetrate the clouds and also water up to 50 centimeter don't forget to wear sun protective clothing for additional protection like a hat or long sleeve to protect exposed areas"

Snow, water and sand reflect UV rays*. Even in the shade, infants need to be protected from indirect exposure.
