CalDerm Skin Cancer Awareness

May is Skin Cancer Prevention & Detection Month and the launch of a national campaign to encourage early detection and prevention of skin cancer, the most common form of cancer in this country.

Approximately 1 million new cases of skin cancer will be diagnosed in the United States this year.

CalDerm will not be holding its annual Skin Cancer Awareness Day in 2011.  Please visit this link below to see if a skin screening event is planned in a location near you:
