May is Global Skin Cancer Awareness Month.
The team of specialists at Derma-Act is taking part by offering free dermatology screenings every Wednesday throughout the month, using Fotofinder – an intelligent skin diagnostic system.
Skin cancer can affect people of all ages, but the risk increases with age. A single severe sunburn in childhood significantly raises the risk of developing skin cancer in adulthood. That’s why it’s essential to follow some golden skincare rules:
- Apply sunscreen with SPF 50+ year-round. In the summer and during holidays, apply it 15–30 minutes before sun exposure and reapply every two hours.
- Avoid direct sun exposure between 11 AM and 4 PM in the summer – this is when UV rays are strongest. Wear a hat, sunglasses, and light clothing.
- Monitor your skin and moles at home. If you notice any changes, consult your dermatologist.
At Derma-Act, we remind you not to skip your annual preventive skin check. With us, the screening is quick and extremely precise, performed using Fotofinder – a computer-assisted technology that maps your entire body and allows for detailed tracking of existing and newly appearing moles.
What is Fotofinder?
Fotofinder is a computerized mole-mapping system that documents the entire surface of the skin. The dermatoscope camera magnifies up to 120 times, connects to a computer, and stores the images in the patient’s profile. This enables accurate monitoring of existing and new moles during future check-ups.
