To prevent wrinkles and decrease your chance of developing skin cancer the best advice is to avoid sun exposure or use a sunscreen. Sunscreens come in lotions, gels, creams and sprays. Use a sunscreen that has a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 15 or higher and provides "broad-spectrum" protection (from ultraviolet A and B rays). Apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes before going in the sun and every two-three hours. Check your skin monthly for odd marks, moles, or sores that won't heal. Get an annual checkup. Varicose veins appear in the legs or feet as very small blue or red veins (spider veins) or larger veins that bulge under the skin. Symptoms can include itching, burning, cramping, throbbing, fatigue, and leg heaviness or swelling. Now in the new era of treatment minimally invasive office procedures can precisely close or remove abnormal veins. Treatments take less than one hour and use only local anesthesia. Discomfort afterwards is minimal and most resume normal activities immediately. Treatments are better than ever at helping alleviate leg discomfort, improve appearance, and prevent new veins from forming. D I S T I N C T LY M O N TA N A Gal
