May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month—an ideal time to prioritize your skin health, especially in high-altitude Park City where UV exposure is stronger.

Whether hiking, skiing, or enjoying a sunny walk, your skin is absorbing those rays. This month, Peak Medical highlights how to protect your skin, lower cancer risk, and support lasting skin health with expert care. Learn more in Your Skin, Your Shield: Protecting Against Skin Cancer in the Utah Sun.

High-Altitude Sun Risks in Utah

Living at over 7,000 feet brings stunning views—along with increased UV exposure. For every 3,280 feet of elevation, UV radiation rises by 10–12%, which helps explain the higher skin cancer rates in mountain communities like ours.

Cold or cloudy weather doesn’t stop UV rays. Whether you’re outside year-round or just soaking up the occasional sun, daily sun protection in Utah is a must.

5 Essential Skin Cancer Prevention Tips

4 Key Tips for Year-Round Skin Protection

  1. Use SPF Daily
    Apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every morning—even on cloudy or snowy days. Choose hydrating formulas like PCA Skin’s Hydrator Plus SPF 30 at Peak Medical.

  2. Get Annual Skin Checks
    Visit your dermatologist yearly to catch any changes early—watch for new or changing moles and spots.

  3. Hydrate and Eat Well
    Antioxidants like Vitamin C and Glutathione fight UV damage. Drink plenty of water and eat skin-friendly foods.

  4. Repair with Treatments
    Medical facials and chemical peels reduce sun damage and improve skin texture—perfect after harsh winters or summers.

We offer personalized treatments to keep your skin healthy and radiant.

  • Medical-Grade Chemical Peels – Gently exfoliate damaged outer layers, reduce hyperpigmentation, and smooth fine lines.
  • Medical-Grade Facials – Deeply cleanse, hydrate, and renew for improved tone and texture.
  • PCA Skincare Protocols – Customized regimens with professional-grade products to correct and protect.

Paired with daily SPF and antioxidant support, these treatments help your skin recover from sun damage and maintain long-term health.

5. Replenish and Repair from Within with IV & NAD+ Therapy

True skin health begins at the cellular level. Our IV infusions deliver powerful antioxidants and nutrients to protect, repair, and rejuvenate your skin.

Vitamin C supports collagen production, brightens skin, and prevents oxidative damage. Meanwhile, Glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant, detoxifies and enhances clarity. Additionally, NAD+ plays a vital role in DNA repair, cell regeneration, and long-term anti-aging.

Importantly, NAD+ therapy effectively reverses UV damage and restores energy to skin cells—making it essential for sun protection and recovery, especially at high altitudes like Park City.

To support your wellness goals, we offer flexible NAD+ therapies tailored to your lifestyle:

  • NAD+ IV Therapy delivers NAD+ directly into the bloodstream for deep rejuvenation, energy, and skin repair.
  • NAD+ Injections provide a quick boost to restore NAD+ levels and support metabolism and skin health.
  • NAD+ Nasal Spray offers convenient daily support to maintain cellular health, radiance, and mental clarity.

Whether you need a powerful reset or ongoing support, our NAD+ therapies restore your body and protect your skin from within.
