When you think of the Southwest region of the US, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Perhaps the Grand Canyon or other national parks. Or maybe the weather! It’s a well-known fact that the weather in the Southwest is quite unique and distinctive — when we think about this region, we think about the sun.

The Southwest is the hottest region of the United States, with temperatures up to the 110s during the summer. The warmest temperatures occur in Arizona and New Mexico while cooling off to the north in areas like Utah and Colorado.

We’ll be looking into what this sun strength means for the health of our skin and what the Sunesta team can offer you — in terms of screens! Our customizable screens, like The Sentry, can offer the protection your skin needs from the sun.

How the Sun Impacts Our Skin

Our skin faces environmental aggressors every day, but the sun poses a serious threat that we might not be aware of on a daily basis — especially if the skin is unprotected.

Skin conditions caused by sun exposure can include:

  • Sunburns
  • Fine and coarse wrinkles
  • Skin discoloration/melasma
  • Benign tumors
  • Precancerous/cancerous lesions like melanoma
  • Loss of overall facial elasticity
  • Broken capillaries/blood vessels

Treatments for sun-damaged skin, including lasers and surgery, can be quite pricey — so it’s incredibly important to make protecting your skin a top priority!
