Most skin cancers are caused by exposure to the sun. Skin damage can occur due to exposure to the sun over a long period of time or to being exposed to too much sun and getting sunburnt.

You can reduce your risk of skin cancer by limiting or avoiding exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Checking your skin for suspicious changes can help detect skin cancer at its earliest stages. Early detection of skin cancer gives you the greatest chance for successful skin cancer treatment.
