Sunscreen is selected according to skin type and patch test is necessary before applying a new one in order to check allergies.

Do you know the Australian brand Solbari for SPF clothing too? Seems they're similar to Coolibar - I've mixed &amp; matched a swimsuit from their SPF swim clothes too. </p> <p>I do need to get better about hat wearing though, since I find them to be a hassle on public transport (always worried I'm going to accidentally hit someone with the brim, lol!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skin-health-doesnt-end-at-your-neck#post-2302576 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 21:42:08 +0000 Anonymous 2302576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Prayers for Mr. ND!

All caught early also. &nbsp;</p> <p>As you point out , they can pop up anywhere ! Even the scalp. It's always a good idea to ask your hairdresser or barber to mention anything they might see that's unusual too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skin-health-doesnt-end-at-your-neck#post-2302354 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 00:29:23 +0000 LJP 2302354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup - good reminder to all .

I'm glad he has the slow growing variety and hope his additional checks come back looking good.</p> <p>And thank you for the reminder. I have been wearing sunscreen for the past many years, but only recently have I started doing as Angie does and covering up in the summertime. When I go for my walks, I wear long-sleeved sun protection tops with higher collars. Still, I was exposed the the sun and had a number of nasty burns as a child, which doesn't help.&nbsp;</p> <p>I will be scheduling a full body check and encouraging Dh to do so as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skin-health-doesnt-end-at-your-neck#post-2302310 Sun, 15 Jan 2023 20:02:58 +0000 Angie 2302310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you caught that early! Good job, and wishing Mr. ND the best.&nbsp;</p> <p>That's why I'm covered up in Summer too :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skin-health-doesnt-end-at-your-neck#post-2302307 Sun, 15 Jan 2023 19:45:10 +0000 Suz 2302307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I'm so sorry, <b>nuancedream</b>. I'm glad Mr. ND caught it -- and I hope all procedures go well. It is a good reminder.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skin-health-doesnt-end-at-your-neck#post-2302280 Sun, 15 Jan 2023 17:28:28 +0000 nuancedream 2302280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Earlier this week, Mr. ND received a diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma. A lesion just under his collarbone had changed appearance and started to bleed slightly. Mr. ND will be scheduled for an additional procedure to ensure the carcinoma hasn't spread. BCC is quite common and generally slow growing. If you are not already, please start wearing sunscreen. This includes people with darker skin tones because melanin does not protect from ultraviolet rays. UVA and UVB rays are present on cloudy days. Finally, consider getting a total body skin check from a dermatologist once a year. I can guarantee Mr ND will be doing so from now on. </p>
