All over the world, May 6th is Melanoma Day, one of the most aggressive and difficult to treat types of cancer. And experts believe that the main reason for its development is aggressive ultraviolet radiation.
To prevent melanoma, it is very important to protect the skin from the sun, as well as regularly undergo check-ups - examine all existing moles. An effective way to do this is to undergo dermatoscopy. This is an examination of the skin under magnification to create a “map” of moles and age spots.
Dermatoscopy allows you to evaluate any formations on the skin and determine their nature (benign or malignant). One of the main advantages is the early detection of skin cancer, in particular melanoma. The method allows you to increase the timely detection of the disease by 20%.
Here are the cases in which dermatoscopy is necessary:
- If you have been actively sunbathing and noticed sunburn.
- Pigment spots have appeared on the skin.
- The number of moles has increased.
- Existing moles have increased in size and their texture has changed.
- You have a family history of cancer.
