Most people don’t realise that baseball caps only protect a small part of the face -leaving the ears, cheeks, neck and scalp exposed to harmful UV. Australian guidelines do not recommend caps for sun protection for this reason.
With 95–99% of skin cancers caused by UV exposure, choosing a wide-brim, bucket or legionnaire hat makes a real difference.
Protect your whole head, not just your forehead.🧡🖤
When it comes to skin checks, training matters. Anyone can check your skin, but not everyone is trained to understand what they’re looking at, and how exactly to treat it. Make sure you can trust the quality of your skin check provider, look for an accredited skin cancer doctor locally at www.skincancercollege.org 🧡🖤
