Children's photoprotection and monitoring of birthmarks in children

Children are one of the most important population groups in which the photo-protection must be maximised due to spending a lot of time outdoors. It should be remembered that children's skin is particularly sensitive to the harmful effects of UV radiation, which increases the risk of burns and adverse effects on the skin, including the risk of skin cancer. Therefore, it is essential that we actively participate in the protection of children's skin and eliminate chronic exposure to UV radiation on children's skin.

Keywords: photoprotection, sun protection factor, children's skin, prevention, dermoscopy, dermocosmetics.
