Does Solarcaine help prevent peeling for sunburns?

Question

...or does it just help with pain?

Answer 1

Immediately after being in the sun - a long cool bath or shower helps draw out the "fire" and helps prevent a sunburn from being too bad. Lotions will seal the skin and allow for greater damage to occur... as if radiation was still there trying to work it's way out.

Peeling may be inevitable. Solarcaine helps with the pain. Aloe Vera has been shown to slow down the healing process... so oddly enough it may help with less peeling.

I hope you feel better hon. Peace.
