"I recommend an annual exam, which must include examination of the whole body, from the scalp to between the toes." Dr. David J. Leffell, MD, a David Paige Smith professor of dermatology and surgery chief at the Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Conn., told Fox News Digital.It is important for everyone to get checked, he also said, especially if there's a history of sunburn as a child, or if we work or participate in recreational activities in the sun.

The assistant attending surgeon said that while annual skin examinations are important for all individuals, The American Academy of Dermatology said it is estimated that one in five Americans will develop skin cancer — but caught early, skin cancer is highly treatable.The main types of skin cancer are squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma and melanoma.
