What's the best thing I can do for my face?

We are frequently asked that question by our patients and I think most people expect to hear Botox,fillers or lasers. While these certainly have their place the answer would be more basic:
sun protection. Obviously the face is the most sun exposed part of our body and you know how intense the sun is here in SW Florida. Years of sun exposure causes photo damage that leads to brown or red spots,loss of collagen that leads to lines and wrinkles and skin cancers. So wear a broad brimmed hat and use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and try to avoid being out between 10-2.
