December Check-In: Don’t Forget Your Skin ❄️

With the holiday rush and colder weather, skin checks can easily fall off the to-do list — but they’re still important year-round. Take a moment this month to look over your skin and notice anything new or changing.

🔎 Pay attention to:
• Moles or spots that look different than before
• Rough, scaly, or non-healing patches
• Areas that itch, bleed, or feel irritated

🪞 Reminder: Skin cancer can appear anywhere — even where sun exposure is minimal. A mirror and good lighting can help you check harder-to-see areas.

If something doesn’t look right, schedule a visit with your dermatologist. Early detection makes treatment easier and more effective. 👩🏻‍⚕️

Skin cancer prevention is year-round, even in cooler weather:

• Wear broad spectrum sunscreen, even when it’s not hot outside.
• Cover up with sun-protective clothing.
• Do a monthly skin self-exam to check for any changes.
• See a board-certified dermatologist for a professional skin exam—early detection saves lives.
• Avoid tanning beds.

Taking a few simple steps can make a huge difference in your skin health! 👩🏻‍⚕️

Let's stay ahead of skin changes this November! 🍂 Cooler weather means cozy sweaters — but it also means your skin might be out of sight, and out of mind. This month, take a moment to check in with your skin health. A self-exam takes just a few minutes and can help you catch something early.

Look for:
• New or changing moles or spots
• Rough patches or sores that don’t heal
• Areas that itch, bleed, or feel tender

💡 Tip: Use good lighting and a mirror — and don’t skip hidden areas like your scalp, back, and feet.

If something seems off, schedule a dermatologist visit. Early checks = early detection. 👩🏻‍⚕️
