How healthy is your skin? You’re missing out if your skincare routine doesn’t include a monthly skin self-exam. No type of cancer affects more people than skin cancer — one in five Americans will develop it by the time they are 70, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.

There are three main types of skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and melanoma. BCC and SCC are the most common and second-most-common types of skin cancer, respectively. Melanoma is rarer but more serious — it causes many deaths from skin cancer despite accounting for about 1% of total cases, the American Cancer Society reports.

Join Chris Curry for this episode's conversation on skin cancer. Chris talks with Dr. Harold Rabinovitz, a skin cancer expert, to discuss the different types of skin cancer, how each type can be treated, and how to protect your skin to prevent skin cancer from developing.
