You will be surprised to know that over the last 40 years, the rates of deadly Skin cancer “Melanoma” grew by 800 percent among young women and 400 percent among young men (source:skincancer.org). According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI-USA), over one million people in the U.S. are diagnosed with different skin cancer every year.
Skin Cancers may include Melanoma, Basal Cell Carcinoma, Bowen Symptoms etc. These all are the types of Skin Cancer and they start as the Precancerous Lesions. These precancerous conditions may bring changes to the skin. Basically these conditions are not Cancer but can lead to Cancer.

Remember, Cancerous Lesion has uneven borders If the border of Moles is hazy or uneven then get it checked by a Dermatologist..
