Sun Safety and Skin Protection

Sun safety and skin protection are crucial for maintaining healthy skin and preventing skin cancer. At CHOC, we understand the importance of protecting children's delicate skin from harmful UV rays. Our team of dermatologists and pediatricians are dedicated to educating families on the best practices for sun safety and skin protection. From proper sunscreen application to protective clothing, we are committed to keeping children safe in the sun.
