GOT SKIN? LEARN THESE ALARMING FACTS:

  • Melanoma is the cancer for which incidence is rising, yet only receives approx. 3% of funding provided by the National Cancer Institute.
  • Only one blistering sunburn, especially at a young age, more than doubles the chance of developing melanoma skin cancer later in life.
