Our skin is made up of several layers that helps to regulate our body temperature and protects us against outside elements – such as heat, infection, injury, and sunlight. Also, our skin is susceptible to skin cancer. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer. It begins on the outer layer of skin, called the epidermis, and usually forms on skin that has been exposed to sunlight, but it can occur anywhere on your body.
