reminder: early detection saves lives.

While melanoma can affect anyone, certain groups face a higher risk. In particular, white men over 50 have a greater likelihood of developing melanoma, with many cases appearing on the back or scalp - areas that are often harder to see during routine skin checks.

Regular self-exams and awareness of risk factors can make a critical difference in catching skin cancer early. https://impactmelanoma.org/melanoma-facts/
