Sun damage from driving

I’ve just noticed that the right side of my face has quite a bit more sun damage, presumably from driving. I’ve always used sun block but I not been very good at reapplying it. I don’t think anyone else would notice but it’s curious, the difference. More fine lines and pigmentation on my right, significantly less on the left.

I started wearing sunblock daily at 22 and by then I already had sun spots on the right.

Dermatica & skin+me are online dermatologists who can prescribe tretonoin to fade them. Mine have faded a lot and I’m not even halfway down the second tube.

Yes I remember that picture of I think it was a long distance lorry driver. One half of his face was significantly aged versus the other.

I'd love to get my car windows properly tinted with the spf stuff. I spend a lot of time driving, my pores and texture is the worse on the right of my face I wonder now if that's sun damage.

You can buy uv filtering adhesive film on the Internet. It’s clear.

It's UVA that gets you through windows so make sure it's high protection for that

I think my right hand is much more aged then the left. I blame the car.
