The sun is a double-edged sword isn’t it? We love to be outside but we don’t love the damage it does to our skin, not only in premature aging, wrinkles, but also in causing life threatening skin cancer. After the long winter in North America, the sun is coming out and we are starting to enjoy it. But how do we stay safe in the sun? This week on Inside Cosmetic Surgery Today, your show host, Edmonton Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Barry Lycka, welcomes Leona Yez, Executive Director of the Canadian Skin Cancer Foundation. Ms Yez shares with us a wealth of essential information and practical advice to help you and your loved ones play safe in the sunshine. Dr Lycka & Ms Yez also talk about the dangers of using tanning beds, especially for teenagers. They then highlight some of the great events & educational programs that the Canadian Skin Cancer Foundation are organising, including their memorable annual fundraiser, An Evening of Red, Whites & Blues ( May 9th Oasis Center, Edmonton).
