Skin Cancer Checks & Treatment

Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer & melanoma in the world. At least two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70.

The major cause of skin cancer is exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun and other artificial sources, such as solariums .

Main types of skin cancer :

1- Basal cell cancer

2- Squamous cell cancer

3- Melanoma

The good news is that skin cancer is one of the most preventable form of cancer in Australia. Over 95% of skin cancers can be successfully treated if found early through regular skin and mole checks.
