Sunscreens have been around for more than 70 years. Designed originally to protect against sunburn, recognition of the various harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation has broadened the use of sunscreens. The addition of effective UVA sunscreen agents has enabled claims beyond protection against sunburn to include prevention of idiopathic photodermatosis, actinic keratoses, skin cancer, and photoaging. This article will review some of the recent advances in photoprotection, including the development of sunscreen formulations offering higher and broader protection against solar radiation.
防晒霜已经存在了70多年。其最初设计用于防止晒伤，随着对紫外线（UV）辐射各种有害影响的认识，防晒霜的用途得到了扩展。有效的UVA防晒剂的添加，使得防晒霜的功效不仅限于防止晒伤，还包括预防特发性光皮肤病、光化性角化病、皮肤癌和光老化。本文将综述光防护方面的一些最新进展，包括开发能提供更高、更广泛的太阳辐射防护的防晒配方。
