The aim of this site is to make you aware of what can be done to prevent skin cancer, to help you locate any suspect moles and to encourage you to consult your dermatologist, the only person able to give a definitive diagnosis. The site has been developed by an expert board of dermatologists with support from La Roche-Posay. 90% of melanomas detected early enough can be cured. But the frequency of melanomas is constantly rising. Early detection is therefore essential. As skin cancer experts, dermatologists are responsible for encouraging you to regularly check your skin and locate any suspect lesions. Myskincheck.ca is intended to help you monitor your moles in between visits to your dermatologist. It is therefore a valuable aid for doctors in monitoring their patients, and allows you to better understand your skin so that you can take better care of it. You can evaluate your personal risk level and learn how to monitor your skin. These interactive tools do not in any way replace the essential visits to your doctor. Myskincheck.ca will also give pointers on how to behave in the sun. Together, let's help fight skin cancer !.
