20.01.2022 Australia has one of the highest levels of skin cancer in the world, the majority of which are caused by sun exposure.

A further 13000 people are diagnosed every year with Melanoma, giving Australia one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world.

08.01.2022 Melanoma is now the most common cancer in Australians aged 15 to 39. Researchers from the University of Queensland have found that freckles and moles appearing on the iris indicates a higher risk of melanoma, particularly in people under 40.

02.01.2022 Living in Australia, we all know that getting our skin checked is important! But did you know basal cell carcinoma (BCC) can sometimes resemble noncancerous skin conditions such as psoriasis or eczema? This type of cancer accounts for about 70% of non-melanoma skin cancers, which is why it is imperative to have regular skin checks. BCCs are easily treated in their early stages so if you observe any of the warning signs or some other worrisome change in your skin, consult your usual skin care specialist or GP immediately - prevention is so much better than cure.
