UV actually stands for ultraviolet, a term that you have likely heard before, probably tied to ultraviolet light. Many of us have learned about the phenomenon in science class or we have heard about the harmful effects that UV rays can have on our bodies, particularly our skin. There are two kinds of UV rays: UVA and UVB. UVA rays are longer in length, can penetrate car windows that are untreated and can cause great amounts of skin damage over periods of time that we are exposed to it. UVB rays are shorter in length and cannot as easily harm us or penetrate windows. The UV rays are known to be a contributing cause to skin damage and skin cancer known as melanoma. It is believed that melanoma cases are 90 percent of the time related to exposure to these kinds of UV rays over a cumulative period. Scientists, researchers and medical professionals in dermatology now have linked exposure through car windows and driving. Dermatologists have long noticed more skin damage on the left side of human faces and bodies in the United States.
