December 1, 2011

OLDER Australians and Baby Boomers have less sun damaged skin than younger generations, according to results from SunSense’s SunSensibility health project.

The results were interesting particularly in relation to the intense sun-safety education efforts over the past 30 years. “It shows we’ve still got a long way to go,” said SunSense.
