What is melanoma and how common is it?
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer caused by changes in cells known as melanocytes. These cells produce pigment known as melanin, which provides the hair and the skin with its color. Melanin can appear on normal areas of skin or may start as a mole that has altered in appearance. Some moles that are present on a body at birth may later form melanomas.

The rate of melanoma is increasing and the risk of developing the condition increases with age. Individuals are more likely to develop melanoma if they have pale skin, blue or green colored eyes, or red or blond colored hair.

Individuals are also at risk if they:

reside in sunny climates
have spent time exposed to the sun
have had one or more episodes of blistering sunburn during childhood
have used tanning devices

Other risk factors include not having a regular mole check, a family history of melanoma, coming into contact with chemicals known to cause cancer, possessing certain types of moles, and having a weakened immune system.

Possible symptoms of melanoma include:

Asymmetry, when one half of an abnormal area differs from the other half

Borders, when the edges of the growth look irregular

Color, when the area changes in color

Diameter, when the area is larger than 6mm in its diameter

Evolution, when the mole constantly changes in appearance

Conducting your own mole check on a regular basis and being part of an annual mole check screening program is your best defense against melanoma.
