UV radiation emits from both natural sources like sunlight, and artificial ones like lasers and tanning beds. UV rays are categorised based on their wavelength: UVA (longest), UVB (medium), and UVC (shortest). About 95% of UV rays that reach the Earth's surface are UVA, which penetrates deeper into the skin, causing premature ageing. The remaining 5% is UVB, which tends to affect the skin's outer layer, leading to sunburn.
Ultraviolet Index (UVI)
The UVI is a global scale ranging from 0 to 11+ that measures the intensity of solar UV radiation. Singapore, being close to the equator, typically experiences UVI between 6 to 9 throughout the day.
While some UV exposure is necessary for health, overexposure can lead to harmful effects to the skin. To protect your skin and maintain its health, remember to protect yourself from the sun’s rays by:
- Applying sunscreen every 2 hours
- Wearing hats and clothing with UV protection
- Using an umbrella and staying in shaded areas
- Considering oral sunscreen for added protection
