What to Look for During Your At-Home Skin Checks
Your skin is your largest organ that deserves plenty of love and attention. That's why at-home skin checks are so important! Not only can they help you detect any changes or abnormalities in your skin, including signs of skin cancer, but they can also help you become more familiar with your skin and identify any potential issues more quickly. Plus, taking a few minutes to examine your skin regularly is a proactive step in your overall health and wellness. So what should you look for? Keep an eye out for asymmetrical moles or spots with irregular borders, uneven color, a diameter larger than 6mm, or evolving in size, shape, or texture. If you notice any of these changes, schedule an appointment with a dermatologist for an evaluation.
