Guys, did you know that the back is the most common location for skin melanoma? And ladies, the most common location is the legs. Dr. Scricca helps patients spot and detect skin cancer. He and his staff help you maintain and care for your skin, hair, and nails. With our full skin examination, we can pinpoint specific problem areas and correct them. Early detection leads to a simple cure. Allow us to be of assistance to you. 

What’s a great way to control the visible signs of aging and manage complexion problems without surgical intervention? With physician-strength alpha-hydroxy acid skin care products. Used daily, these glycolic acids (sugar acids) will improve the quality and texture of your skin, minimize wrinkles, and improve discoloration associated with aging. Revitalize your skin and start looking younger with just a minute or two a day using our fast-action cream. Dr. Scricca likes to keep it simple: one cream once per day.

Clothing with a UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) rating is another great option for replacing sunscreen application. Typically, this clothing is sun protective because of the tight weave of the fabric, not because of chemical treatment or type of fabric. Dr. Scricca especially recommends this for toddlers, kids, and active adults. He wears these shirts when swimming or snorkeling. 

And remember to take care of your eyes! Again, good sunglasses with broad-spectrum protection are important. 

Early detection with a full skin exam, scalp to toes, front and back, with well-trained eyes, is key to finding skin cancers and leads to the simplest treatments. Caught early, most skin cancers are not life-threatening and simple to treat. The frequency of a full skin exam will vary depending on the condition of your skin and your personal history of skin problems. Don’t neglect your skin. We are here to help you take excellent care of your skin.
