Sunspots and sun-damaged skin can be treated early to prevent skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma. While most skin cancers develop on sun-exposed areas, they can also occur in areas not typically exposed to sunlight. Limiting UV exposure reduces the risk of skin cancer. Early detection through regular checks increases the chances of successful treatment. Melanoma, the most aggressive type, accounts for 75% of skin cancer-related deaths.

Skin cancer checks are crucial for early detection, which greatly improves treatment outcomes. Regular checks help identify suspicious moles or lesions before they progress. Early diagnosis through skin cancer checks can prevent cancer from spreading and becoming more dangerous. Individuals with risk factors like fair skin, frequent sun exposure or family history should prioritise skin cancer checks. These checks are a simple, effective way to protect your health. By catching skin cancer early through regular checks, treatment is often less invasive and more successful. Skin cancer checks save lives by detecting the disease at its most treatable stages.
A skin cancer check is a thorough examination of your skin by a healthcare professional to detect any suspicious spots, moles or lesions that may indicate skin cancer.
Anyone can benefit from a skin cancer check, but it's especially important for individuals with fair skin, a history of sunburns, excessive sun exposure or a family history of skin cancer.
It's recommended to have a skin cancer check annually or more frequently if you have risk factors, such as previous skin cancer, atypical moles or a history of heavy sun exposure.
Yes, you can do self-checks at home by examining your skin for any new or changing moles or spots, but professional checks by a dermatologist are more thorough.
