With Australia’s high rate of skin cancer, routine skin checks are essential for early detection and successful treatment. Early detection is crucial to effectively treat skin cancer. Make it a habit to check your skin every month for new moles, spots or changes to existing ones. Look out for irregular borders, multiple colours or growth in size, as these can be signs of skin cancer.
Your community pharmacist can assist with basic skin checks to identify changes or abnormalities. They can also provide guidance on whether further medical advice is needed.
Consider scheduling a professional skin check with your GP or a skin specialist for a comprehensive assessment, especially if you have noticed any concerning changes.
Regular skin checks, combined with the support and advice of your community pharmacist, can make a crucial difference in your overall skin health.
