Abstract

Sun-damaged skin is one of the most common complaints of patients presenting to a plastic surgery or dermatology practice. Baby boomers and many others who chose to sunbathe in their adolescent years previously thought little of the potential damaging effects on their skin and are now "paying the price" (P. Kurtzweil, 1998).
