Preventing Skin Cancer
Prevention and Screening
The best-known risk factor of malignant melanoma is exposure to ultraviolet rays, especially intense and repeatedly for short periods. The role of exposure in childhood has recently been highlighted. Prevention is to avoid sun exposure during the hottest hours of the day, to protect the skin with protective clothing and / or sunscreen creams. These tips are mainly for clear skin subjects, little bronzer or not, especially if they are carriers of multiple nevi or dysplastic nevus syndrome.
