Skin Cancer

Explaining Skin Cancer In Brief The skin is known as the largest organ of the body. It shields your body against infection, injury, sunlight, and heat. Moreover, it stores vitamin D, fat, and water and helps control body temperature. The skin has many layers, but the two primary layers are the dermis (inner or lower layer) and the epidermis (outer or upper layer). Skin cancer is the uncontrollable development of abnormal cells in the outermost skin layer, the epidermis, caused by damaged DNA that causes mutations. And these mutations cause abnormal skin cells to quickly multiply and produce malignant tumors. Skin cancer starts in the epidermis that is made up of 3 types of cells – melanocytes, basal cells, and squamous cells. Causes of Skin Cancer Apart from the rare examples, most skin cancers are caused by DNA mutations inferred by ultraviolet rays impacting the epidermis cells badly. Natural immune surveillance controls most of these early cancers, which if compromised, may allow th...

Skin Cancer

Chances of Recovery from Skin Cancer 1. Prognosis Generally, the prognosis for non-melanoma skin cancer is great. Both squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma are highly curable. Virtually no death occurs from basal cell carcinoma and just rare deaths are seen with squamous cell carcinoma skin cancers, mostly in immunosuppressed people. Basing on the treatment option, type and area of skin cancer, the possibility of an earlier skin cancer’s recurrence is as low as 1%-2% for Mohs Surgery and up to 10%-15% for elimination by curettage and electrodessication. 2. Skin Cancer Screening Skin cancer’s early detection can cause better results. Know your skin and whether you have any spot or mole that is suspicious, visit a dermatologist for a skin cancer screening. Awareness helps detect and treat skin cancers soon. 3. Prevention If you avoid triggers that lead to tumors to grow, you can prevent many skin cancers. Prevention methods incorporate: ·         Having you...
