Become a skin checker this summer

Yep, I already know all of this. Cute puppies they are adorable :)

Great information! I will definitely check out the ABCDE method

I like the campaign, but I have so many freckles on my arm, it would be impossible for me to detect changes! I think I need to leave it to the doctor.

I've had a few moles I was suspicious of but thankfully they were ok.

Great article

The skin checker is a wonderful idea, a handy tool. My doctor keeps a beady eye on my skin because I have several moles. I have had a couple cut out from my shoulder, benign thank goodness.

I've downloaded and save the ABCDE method to my computer for future references.

The ABCDE chart, with photos, is a really helpful guide.

My tip is to NOT do what I did when I was a silly teenager. It was an era when sun awareness wasn't talked about in the media, so all my friends fried themselves in the sun with baby oil. I stupidly did what they did, but their skin turned tan while my skin became beetroot red.

Skin cancers are so scary

I did not know at all - the thought didn't even occur to me.

Really important and timely information.

I check my skin all the time. I have a lot of freckles and moles plus my mum, dad and sister have all had skin cancers removed. Thankfully they were all caught early.

i never check my skin properly

Downloaded the guide - very important - thanks for putting it up.

I really want to try the La Roche-Posay Anthelios Nutritive Oil SPF50. Still looking for a holy grail sunscreen.

What a great idea! I go to my skin specialist every year or so to get my skin checked.

Excellent article! A great timely reminder for me.

I know to keep an eye out for any changes to moles, etc and also help my fiance keep an eye on his. It's important.

Its great to remind the public of sun cancer as we in Australia are the most vulnerable in the world to it. Great initiative

I have had 2 moles taken off. My daughter has had 1 removed. As my Dad had skin cancer on the top of his ears, and regularly was checked. On one visit I mentioned him as a farmers son and Sailor so they checked him all over and found one right at the top of his spine and said it had to get taken out right then. The Doctor said that it was just on the verge of turning deadly so even another week could have been a worse. How lucky he was, I took the Doctor a Bottle of wine as a Thank-you for putting off his night out to remove this Mole from my dad.

really this is something we all need to do, like pap smears and breast checks - but I know for me, I don't as I have no idea where I am supposed to go. BTW that La Roche Posay oil sunscreen I have had on my list, it's pricey but looks worthwhile.

Great video - I must say I don't wear sunscreen and I rarely ever check my skin, however I haven't spotted any new dots/marks.

I always look and if it looks weird i tell my doc, only one scare so far and i got a massive bit of skin out of my ankle. Dont forget to put suncream on your feet!

Great article! I've got a few spots in my back that I get my doctor to look at when I visit him. They are ok for now, but it's always best to check.
