Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun can elicit both positive and negative effects on the skin. Among the three types of UV radiation, UVB (280-315 nm) is particularly detrimental, causing sunburns, skin cancer, and premature aging. Furthermore, UV exposure induces the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which the skin recognizes as external ROS. This study investigates …
