Skin Cancer

The best way to reduce your risk of skin cancer is to protect your skin from the sun and other sources of ultraviolet (UV) rays.

Skin cancer arises from the damage of skin cells by UV rays from the sun.

Australia has the highest per capita rates of skin cancer in the world, where 2 out of every 3 Australians will be diagnosed with some form of skin cancer by the age of 70.
