Evaluating your likely current (and near future) state of health means taking into account the risk factors — such as recent sun exposure — that affect you. Our medical diagnosis tool, The Analyst™, identifies major risk factors by asking the right questions.
Roughly how much sun exposure have you had during the past 6 months?
Possible responses:
→ Very little/rarely outdoors/always fully covered→ A little skin exposure for under 1 hour per week → Arms/legs in full sun for at least 1 hour per week → Much of body in full sun at least 2 hours per week → Whole body in full sun at least 4 hours per week |
Sun Damage/Overexposure also suggests the following possibilities:
Because risk increases according to total lifetime sun exposure, older people are much more likely to develop actinic keratoses.
