Sunscreen Is Your Skin’s Best Friend | Venice Beach News

Summer’s here and your skin’s paying the price—whether you’re sweating in the sun or just commuting. Dr. Zaira Ortega at Venice Family Clinic says it’s never too late to start protecting your skin, but the best time? Right now. She’s seeing patients in their 40s already battling sun damage and changing moles—and she’s got a simple, powerful fix: sunscreen every single day, even on cloudy days or through car windows. SPF 30 or higher, reapplied every 80 minutes, plus UPF clothing and hats. The clinic just launched its own dermatology department to make care accessible—no referrals, no long waits, no financial barriers. Her daily routine? Gentle cleanser, fragrance-free moisturizer, and that non-negotiable sunscreen. Skin health isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.
