It won't cause skin cancer in the long run
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
I don't think that in such circumstances you are prone to skin cancer.
No need to worry but I would definitely recommend you to apply a broad spectrum sunscreen on the face and neck during the day time.
