25.01.2022 Remember this guy? Cancer Council Australia first brought Sid Seagull onto our screens in the 1980s and today, his message is as important as ever. Today is the launch of National Skin Cancer Action Week, and this year, Cancer Council and the Australasian College of Dermatologists are bringing him back and encouraging all those ‘80s kids who are now parents themselves to stay SunSmart. ... A lot has changed since the ‘80s, but it’s still the same sun. UV radiation is just as dangerous, and sun protection is still the best defence against skin cancer.

23.01.2022 What is a Trichologist? A 'trichologist' specialises in hair loss problems such as baldness, hair breakage and itchy/flaking scalp.

It is true, our dermatologists are patient, caring and always looking for the best treatment pathways for our patients but it's the collective eff...orts from specialists, family, friends and support groups like the AAAF that contribute to helping patients like Charlie successfully learn how to live with their condition.
