Unprotected sun exposure induces skin damage and potential disease, warranting sun-protection of all modalities. It is documented that sunscreen use is negatively associated with immigration status, while sun-protective clothing and sun-accessory use is more prevalent in these populations. Understanding how diversity in populations changes photoprotective behaviours is imperative for dermatologists in using a holistic lens when tailoring care to their patients. This systematic review examines differences in photoprotective behaviours based on immigration status.
