Sunburn: Prognosis

 
Medical Encyclopedia: Sunburn: Prognosis

Moderately burned skin should heal within a week. While the skin will heal after a sunburn, the risk of skin cancer increases with exposure and subsequent burns. Even one bad burn in childhood carries an increased risk of skin cancer.

— Carol A. Turkington
