Do you think skin cancer only happens to other people? Think again. It’s the most common cancer. But here’s the good news. We can prevent most of it.
4 Tips To Help Your Skin Stay Healthy, Smooth, and Cancer-free…
1. Broad Spectrum Sun Screen
Wear a broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher every single morning. That cuts your wrist by about 50%.
2. Full Body Skin Checks
Come in for a yearly full body skin check. Early detection is key.
3. Treat the Whole Area When If We Find Precancerous Spots
If you have those rough, scaly, precancerous spots called actinic keratosis, let’s treat the whole area. This could be done at home with topical creams like 5-fluorouracil and imicomod, or in the office with photodynamic therapy.
4. Lasers Can Clear Spots and Lower Future Risk of Skin Cancer
Studies now show that certain lasers can clear 60 to 80% of those precancerous spots and lower future risk of skin cancer. As a bonus, you’ll also enjoy visible cosmetic improvement at the same time.
