Skin Cancer Prevention
Why Prevention Matters
Protect Today, Prevent Tomorrow
Skin cancer is common in Australia, but it’s often preventable. By adopting smart skincare habits and staying vigilant for signs, you can significantly reduce your risk and protect your skin in the long term.
Everyday Habits for Safer Skin
Keep a Monthly Skin Check Habit
Once a month, take a few minutes to scan your skin head-to-toe. Note new spots or changes in shape, size, colour, or texture, and reach out if you spot anything unusual. Early detection is key.
Sunscreen, Clothing & Beyond
Sunscreen does a lot, but it works best when combined with other good habits. Think of your skin protection as a layered system: shade + clothing + sunscreen + regular checks. Add sunglasses and hats to guard eyes and delicate facial skin.
True prevention comes from multiple safeguards working together. Daily sunscreen, UV-protective clothing, mindful sun exposure, and periodic professional skin checks form a clinically proven defence system.
