Common Skin Conditions

Skin Cancers

One in five Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime. There are three main types of skin cancer – basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and melanoma. BCC is the most common type of skin cancer. BCCs rarely spread beyond the skin while melanomas can be lethal. All of these cancers may develop as a direct result of sun exposure and skin type. The fairer a person’s skin, the more at risk they are for skin cancer. Dermatologists are physicians trained to recognize and treat skin cancers.
