    Glossary UVB damage

    harm from ultraviolet B rays causing skin burns and DNA damage

    UVB damage refers to the harm caused by ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation, a component of sunlight. UVB rays can penetrate the outer layers of the skin, leading to sunburn, DNA damage, and an increased risk of skin cancer. This type of radiation can also contribute to premature aging and various skin disorders.
