Jerald Sklar, MD (pictured) and Mary Fleischli, MD joined other board certified dermatologist members of the DFW Dermatological Society to provide free screening to people from across the metroplex during the organization’s 2012 DFW Annual Skin Cancer Screening.  This year, screenings were held on Saturday April 28th at four area facilities including Medical Center of Plano, Medical City Hospital-Dallas, Baylor Regional Medical Center at Irving, and Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital.

In addition to raising awareness of skin cancer, organizers report that every year multiple likely melanomas and other forms of skin cancers are identified among those screened who otherwise might not have been screened due to lack of insurance and/or access to appropriate medical care.  Additionally, the event provides a forum to help educate the public about the importance of regular screening, especially for those who are at higher risk, and highlight the importance of daily sun protection to help prevent skin cancer. 

New sun screen labeling guidelines announced last summer by the FDA go into affect June 18, 2012 to help people be sure they are getting complete broad-spectrum protection from the product they choose.  According to Dr. Fleischli, “all the brands of sunscreen we carry more than meet those guidelines and our skin care specialists can help you choose the SPF, water resistance, and form (spray, lotion, etc.) right for you and your lifestyle.”

Adult acne or something else?  It’s important to see a dermatologist to obtain an accurate diagnosis and receive effective treatment for any condition of the skin.  As explained by Dr. Jerald Sklar in this video, there is a new product available, which when used as recommended, can bring about dramatic improvement for patients battling folliculitis (inflamed hair follicles).
