Many medications, topical solutions and even some foods can cause the skin to burn or break out in a rash when exposed to ultraviolet light. The consequences can range from itchiness to an uncomfortable rash and burns. It is critical that every salon owner post a chart of photosensitive medications and agents in a conspicuous location. If a client is taking a medication that isn’t listed, he or she should consult with a physician or pharmacist before being exposed to ultraviolet light—indoors or outdoors.
