One in Five Americans will develop skin cancer! Despite public health warnings to wear sunscreen, cases of the most dangerous form of skin cancer — melanoma — have been rising rapidly. The reason melanoma is so much more deadly than other types of skin cancer is the fact that it can metastasize, or spread throughout the body, more readily. Once melanoma spreads, it is harder to control and can lead to death!

In order to protect ourselves and our loved ones, we need to learn more about skin cancer from a certified Dermatologist. Dr. Jim Polakof interviews Dr. Tim Pearson, who not only shares important tips in preventing skin cancer, but also discusses other concerns ranging from acne, dermatitis, psoriasis and hair loss - to how you can have healthy skin that glows!
