Excellent healing: With sunburn, solar radiation injures the skin and causes it to become inflammed ( red, hot, swollen and tender). There will be some short term changes in the skin appearance and also the elasticity due to the injury and so, that wrinkle is an area that was injured and needs the chance to heal. Children have excellent healing ability, this will resolve quickly. Always use sunscreen on kids.
