Overview

Oncology skin cancers are a type of cancer that affects the skin and can spread to other parts of the body. They are often caused by abnormal cell growth due to exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun, but can also arise from genetic mutations. These cancers can be serious and even life-threatening if not diagnosed early and treated promptly. Oncology skin cancer treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, to name a few. Early detection and prompt treatment can greatly improve the chances of successful outcomes, making regular screenings and self-examinations essential for all individuals, regardless of skin type.
