23.01.2022 We get asked this question a lot - whats the difference between receiving a recall and a reminder. Recall - a recall occurs when it is important for a patient to attend the clinic and is usually to discuss a test result. It is important to not ignore these messages. Reminder - we send out reminders to provide you with a health check system, to let you know when something is due e.g. a skin check.... #dermatoscope #skin #skinclinic #skincancer #skincancerawareness #melanoma #melanomaawareness #pdt #nuvb #pigmentation #rosacea #biopsy #skingraft #sunsafe #slipslopslap #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #cancerresearch #mole #molecheck #dermoscopy #sunsmart #prevention #awareness #solariums #tan #tanning #savelives #skincancertreatment

23.01.2022 What happens within the skin when we get sunburnt? Part 3 of 3: GET READY FOR NEXT TIME Once sunburn inflammation subsides, the lower layer of skin cells begins to grow quickly to replace the dead cells. Post-sunburn peeling is large sheets of dead cells being shed from the upper layer of the skin to make way for this new growth.... DNA damage also causes the cells in the upper layer of skin to signal the cells that produce melanin (the pigment that gives our hair and skin its colour) to get to work. This is what provides the tan that can come after the redness has faded. The melanin settles over the skin cells to shield them from future UV exposure. But dont rely on your tan to fully protect you next time? its only as protective as SPF 2 sunscreen. You can relieve the discomfort of sunburn by staying out of the sun, drinking plenty of water, applying a cool compress, and taking over-the-counter medications such as paracetamol. To avoid this process happening all over again, protect your skin whenever the UV index 3 or higher. You can use the SunSmart app to find out todays UV #dermatoscope #skin #skinclinic #skincancer #skincancerawareness #melanoma #melanomaawareness #pdt #nuvb #pigmentation #rosacea #biopsy #skingraft #sunsafe #slipslopslap #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #cancerresearch #mole #molecheck #dermoscopy #sunsmart #prevention #awareness #solariums #tan #tanning #sunburn #savelives #skincancertreatment

23.01.2022 What causes Melanoma? Most Melanomas are caused by exposure to UV radiation in sunlight. Sunburn:... Sunburn has been associated with melanoma. In Australia almost 14% of adults, 24% of teenagers and 8% of children are sunburnt on summer weekends. People are also sunburnt on cooler or overcast days when they mistakenly believe UV radiation is not as strong. This is untrue - you can still be sunburnt when the temperature is cool. Sun exposure that doesnt result in burning can still cause damage to skin cells and increase your risk of developing skin cancer. Tanning: Almost half of Australian adults hold the misguided belief that a tan looks healthy. But a tan is a sign of skin cells in trauma. Tanning is a sign that you have been exposed to enough UV radiation to damage your skin. Some people who use fake tans mistakenly believe it will provide them with protection against UV radiation. Solariums: Solariums emit UVA and UVB radiation, both known causes of cancer. Cancer Council Australia does not recommend solarium use for cosmetic tanning under any circumstances and it has been banned in some states. Is it curable? If caught early and treated, Melanoma is curable however, it can spread rapidly and can be life threatening if not treated. # Dermoscopy #dermatoscope #skin #skinclinic #skincancer #skincancerawareness #melanoma #melanomaawareness #pdt #nuvb #pigmentation #rosacea #biopsy #skingraft #sunsafe #slipslopslap #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #cancerresearch #mole #molecheck #dermoscopy #sunmartapp #prevention #awareness #solariums #tan #tanning

18.01.2022 When it comes to Vitamin D, the results of the National Sun Protection survey showed women were more likely than men to try to get more vitamin D, with 16% saying they adapted their sun protection to get more vitamin D, compared to 9% of men. The average Australian will get enough vitamin D in summer in a matter of minutes through everyday activities, such as hanging out washing, grabbing a coffee or walking to the car. Research has shown prolonged sun exposure does not caus...e vitamin D levels to continue to increase - but it does increase the risk of skin cancer. #vitamind #dermatoscope #skin #skinclinic #skincancer #skincancerawareness #melanoma #melanomaawareness #pdt #nuvb #pigmentation #rosacea #biopsy #skingraft #sunsafe #slipslopslap #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #cancerresearch #mole #molecheck #dermoscopy #sunsmart #prevention #awareness #solariums #tan #tanning #savelives #skincancertreatment

17.01.2022 What happens within the skin when we get sunburnt? Part 2 of 3: IMMUNNE INVASION Once the cells of the top layer of skin detect DNA damage in themselves, they begin producing molecules to attract immune cells into the skin. This causes the skins blood vessels to leak into the spaces between cells and other skin structures.... Its this extra fluid and the swelling it causes that lead to the red skin, hot sensation and painful sensitivity of freshly sunburnt skin. Immune cell invasion begins while youre still sitting on the beach, but increases about an hour after you come in from the sun. The process peaks 24 to 48 hours later, which is why the redness and painfulness of a sunburn can keep developing for a couple of days. Some of the immune cells start cleaning up skin cells in self-destruct mode, while others release chemicals that further damage weakened cells. Their actions may also trigger a kind of allergic reaction that makes the skin itchy. Within several hours, blisters form where whole layers of the top layer of skin cells have been killed. The dead layer lifts away from the layers underneath, and the space between fills up with the fluid that has leaked into the skin. #dermatoscope #skin #skinclinic #skincancer #skincancerawareness #melanoma #melanomaawareness #pdt #nuvb #pigmentation #rosacea #biopsy #skingraft #sunsafe #slipslopslap #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #cancerresearch #mole #molecheck #dermoscopy #sunsmart #prevention #awareness #solariums #tanning #sunburn #savelives #skincancertreatment #peeling

17.01.2022 What are the types of Melanoma? There are two forms of skin cancer: melanoma and nonmelanoma. Melanoma is classified according to differences in the appearance and behavior of the lesion. There are four different types:... Superficial spreading melanoma (the most common) is the most often seen in young people. It grows along the top layer of the skin for some time before penetrating more deeply. The first sign is a flat or slightly raised, discoloured patch that has irregular borders and is somewhat asymmetrical in form. Lentigo maligna melanoma - found most commonly in the elderly, it appears as a flat or mildly elevated mottled tan, brown or dark brown discolouration. It generally arising on chronically sun-exposed , damaged skin on the face, ears, arms and upper body. Acral lentiginous melanoma usually appears as a black or brown discoloration under the nails or on the soles of the feet or palms of the hands. It tends to advance more often because it is detected later. It is the most common Melanoma in African-Americans & Asians and the least common among Caucasians. Nodular melanoma is the most aggressive of the melanomas. It is recognised when it becomes a bump. It is usually black, but occasionally is blue, gray, white, brown, tan, red or skin tone. It is usually found on the trunk and extremities mainly of the elderly, as well as the scalp in men. # Dermoscopy #dermatoscope #skin #skinclinic #skincancer #skincancerawareness #melanoma #melanomaawareness #pdt #nuvb #pigmentation #rosacea #biopsy #skingraft #sunsafe #slipslopslap #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #cancerresearch #mole #molecheck #dermoscopy #sunmartapp

13.01.2022 What happens within the skin when we get sunburnt? Part 1 of 3: DNA DAMAGE Sunburn is a radiation burn, caused when the ultraviolet (UV) rays of sunlight damage DNA in the upper layer of skin cells. The sun emits three kinds of UV radiation - UVA, B and C.... UVC is mostly absorbed by the earths atmosphere, but UVA and B rays reach the ground and can penetrate unprotected skin. UVB penetrates the epidermis, the top layer of the skin, while UVA goes deeper. The particles that transmit light (photons) from UVA rays interact with the skin and this damages the skins proteins and membranes, as well as DNA. Photons from UVB rays are absorbed by DNA itself, and the extra energy can cause some of the DNA to link up incorrectly. This stops accurate DNA replication, so cells start repairs to try to fix the mistakes. Too many DNA errors overwhelm the cell and cause it to begin to self-destruct, to remove cells that cant be safely replicated. #dermatoscope #skin #skinclinic #skincancer #skincancerawareness #melanoma #melanomaawareness #pdt #nuvb #pigmentation #rosacea #biopsy #skingraft #sunsafe #slipslopslap #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #cancerresearch #mole #molecheck #dermoscopy #sunsmart #prevention #awareness #solariums #tan #tanning #sunburn #savelives #skincancertreatment
