May is Melanoma Skin Cancer Awareness Month, and awareness is everything, especially when it comes to catching things early. Melanoma is the most serious skin cancer because it can be fatal, but the majority of melanomas are totally preventable. At Saskatoon Dermatology Centre, one of our core values is to educate.. We feel it’s important to flag the key signs to look out for when it comes to managing your moles. ... A- ASYMMETRY: melanomas have two very different halves and are an irregular shape. B- BORDER: unlike a normal mole, melanomas have a notched or ragged border. C- COLOUR: melanomas will be a mix of two or more colours D- DIAMETER: most melanomas are larger than the size of a pencil eraser E- EVOLVING: changes in size and shape are key factors to identifying a melanoma. We are your Skin Experts!

Melanoma Skin Cancer Awareness - Don’t forget your SPF May is here and summer is right around the corner. Being outside again is super exciting, to get back into the swing of things. May is also Melanoma Skin Cancer awareness month. Skin cancer is the most common cancer so it’s important that you wear broad spectrum sunscreen 365 days a year, preferable with zinc.

What is Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Treatment? IPL therapy is a way to improve the colour and texture of your skin without surgery. It can undo some of the visible damage caused by sun exposure -- called photoaging. You may notice it mostly on your face, neck, hands, or chest. Unlike laser treatments, IPL uses controlled specific wavelengths of light, making them less invasive. The result is the breakdown of the pigmentation to help rejuvenate your skin and make it glow wi...th minimal to no downtime. Benefits of IPL aka the Photo Facial include: Minimizes diffuse redness Treats brown spots Boost collagen production Improves overall skin quality and texture.
