Its been awhile so I thought I would re-introduce myself đŸ„°

I am a registered nurse with a passion for all things skin cancer - how to prevent it, educating people on how to prevent it & providing skin cancer screening services ('skin checks' & 'spot checks'). I have been working in this space for over 2 years now and have identified hundreds of skin cancer.

Skin cancer is so easily prevented with good education & regular skin checks. My aim is to provide an affordable service where anyone can benefit from having a skin check and learn a bit more about skin cancer prevention.

I run my clinic in the Christchurch area - offering regular clinics as well as corporate checks and education.

So, if you would like a thorough, professional service with a personalised touch, I'd love to hear from you!

Skin cancer checks shouldn’t be anxiety-inducing! That’s why I give people time
time to chat, time to inform, time to check and time to educate. Don’t let anxiety stop you from getting a check. It is super important in Aotearoa where we know our skin cancer rates are one of the highest in the world.

Quite often people are quick to blame their sunscreen for causing breakouts on their skin but there are some things to consider

1. Are you using a FACE sunscreen? Face sunscreens are typically non-comedogenic (don’t cause pimples) and formulated specifically for the face. If you’re using that thick, “all-purpose” (and likely heavy) sunscreen on your face, you may want to switch!
2. If you’re outside, you’re going to sweat & sweat + sunscreen + environmental pollutants = breakouts 3. Are you washing your face at night? Seems a no-brainer BUT you need to cleanse your skin to remove sunscreen and built-up pollutants on the skin - in fact a DOUBLE-CLEANSE is recommended for squeaky clean skin 👍 Try these things first before blaming your sunscreen đŸ«¶đŸ»

Skin is amazing & it tries to tell you when it isn’t happy! Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) has many impacts on the skin - take them as a warning so that you can protect yourself! If you think you’re getting too much sun, might be time to get a skin check!

The importance of SELF-SKIN EXAMINATION must not be underestimated. A large proportion of my patients picked up their own skin cancer. They noticed a change, something wasn’t going away or healing and they just knew it wasn’t normal. Getting a skin check is one part of the equation but don’t discount a thorough self-examination as part of this.

I thought I would close out July with some data for the year ✹ Winter is always pretty quiet, but skin cancer detection rates don’t seem to change đŸ˜„ If you think skin cancer takes a break in winter, sadly you’d be wrong. If you’ve been thinking about getting a skin check, don’t wait until summer!
