Sunscreen is one of those things we all know we should be doing, but actually doing it (especially reapplying!) is a whole other story!

On this episode of The Skin Real Podcast, I speak with Dr. Christie Regula, Mohs surgeon and founder of SunSmart Pittsburgh, about why community-level sun protection may be the key to reducing skin cancer rates. Her nonprofit installs free sunscreen dispensers in public parks, fields, and recreation centers—because no one should have to choose between UV damage and enjoying the outdoors.

This conversation dives into what’s actually keeping people from reapplying SPF (hint: it’s not laziness), the logistics of maintaining sunscreen stations year-round, and what we can learn from global leaders like Australia.

Key Takeaways:

  • Sunburns, especially in childhood, drastically increase melanoma risk
  • The real-life barriers to sun safety (spoiler: it’s not laziness)
  • What a public sunscreen dispenser program actually looks like
  • Why the goal is accessibility, not perfection
  • Simple ways to bring sun protection to your own local community
  • Why skin health is a we issue, not just a me issue
  • This episode is your reminder that sun safety isn’t about being perfect—it’s about making it easier to protect the skin you’re in.

    Dr. Christie Regula is a double board-certified dermatologist and Mohs surgeon and founder of Skin Solutions Dermatology + Cosmetics in Pittsburgh, PA.  Dr. Regula founded Sun Smart Pittsburgh, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in 2017.  Their mission is to promote sun protection and skin cancer prevention through the installation of public sunscreen dispensers.
