Basal Cell Carcinoma is a very common type of skin disorders but is very dangerous also. Basal cell carcinomas enlarge slowly and steadily and can invade neighboring tissue, like the eye, but they usually do not spread to distant parts of the body (metastasize). Basal cell carcinomas are the result of sun damage to the skin. written by peter hutch
Skin cancer is the most common form of human cancer. It is estimated that over 1 million new cases occur annually. The annual rates of all forms of skin cancer are increasing each year, representing a growing public concern. It has also been estimated that nearly half of all Americans who live to age 65 will develop skin cancer at least once. written by peter hutch
Radiotherapy treats cancer by using radiation to kill cancer cells. The radiation can be targeted onto cancer sites in your body. Radiotherapy is not often used to treat early skin cancers, but it may be useful where surgery could be difficult or disfiguring. It may be used if a person is medically unfit for surgery. The treatment is often divided into several doses, given over two to six weeks. It is painless and only takes a few minutes for each treatment. written by Dr Anne
Skin cancer — the abnormal growth of skin cells — most often develops on skin exposed to the sun. But this common form of cancer can also occur on areas of the skin not ordinarily exposed to sunlight. Skin cancer is a disease in which cancer (malignant) cells are found in the outer layers of your skin.

Surgery is the first step in treating almost all types of skin cancers. Conventional surgery (removing the entire cancerous area at one time) is not often used for basal and squamous cell skin cancers. Many basal and squamous cell skin cancers can be removed from the skin quickly and easily.
