Skin Cancer Prevention

Skin cancer can be prevented. Here are some of the sun protection measures:

Reduce exposure to sunlight between 10am and 2pm (11am to 3pm during daylight saving).
Slip on clothes that cover arms and legs
Wear a broad brimmed hat that gives shadow for face, neck and ears.
Slop on broad spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen and reapply every 2 hours
Wear close fitting sunglasses.
Seek shade whenever possible.
Avoid suntanning, using a solarium or getting sunburnt.

Most importantly, check your skin regularly for any new or unusual spots.
