Increasing evidence on the impact of the different wavelengths of sunlight on the skin
demonstrates the need for tailored recommendations of sunscreen according to skin …

The skin exposome is defined as the totality of environmental exposures over the life course
that can induce or modify various skin conditions. Here, we review the impact on the skin of …

Ultraviolet radiation and visible light both have biologic effects on the skin. Visible light can
induce erythema in light-skinned individuals and pigmentation in dark-skinned individuals …

Cutaneous photobiology studies have focused primarily on the ultraviolet portion of the solar
spectrum. Visible light (VL), which comprises 50% of the electromagnetic radiation that …

Background Extrinsic skin aging or photoaging was previously thought to be almost
exclusively due to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation. However, recent literature has described …

At the earth's surface, solar radiation comprises of 5–7% ultraviolet (UV), 45% visible light
(VIS), and 48–50% infrared (IR) radiation. 1 Studies on the cutaneous impact of radiation …

Within solar ultraviolet (UV) light, the longest UVA1 wavelengths, with significant and
relatively constant levels all year round and large penetration properties, produce effects in …

Until recently, visible light (VL) had been regarded to be without significant photobiologic
effect on the skin. Updated research suggests that this is not the case and the measurable …

Background Solar radiation causes skin damage through the generation of reactive oxygen
species (ROS). While UV filters effectively reduce UV‐induced ROS, they cannot prevent VIS …

Skin pigmentation by solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR;~ 295–400 nm) is well established.
More recently, visible light (VL; 400–740 nm) has been shown to induce rapid pigmentation …
