Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Skin cancer, a prevalent cancer type among fair-skinned patients globally, poses a relevant public health concern due to rising incidence rates. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation poses a major risk factor for skin cancer. However, intentional tanning associated with sunburns remains a common practice, notably among female adults. Appropriate prevention campaigns targeting children and adolescents are needed to improve sun protection behavior particularly in these age groups. The aim of our study was to investigate if an AI-based simulation of facial skin aging can enhance sun protection behavior in female adults.
