A suntan is the skin's way of trying to protect itself from the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. When exposed to UV radiation, the skin produces more melanin, a pigment that darkens the skin. This darker pigment helps to absorb and scatter the UV radiation before it can cause more damage to the skin cells.
