Pilates? Try doing 14 full body skin exams before lunch.

Of course, the answer is sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen☀️

But there’s more we can do to reduce skin cancer risk:

1. Treat precancerous sun damage — don’t ignore actinic keratoses.
2. Consider field therapy — treatments like 5-FU or PDT can address areas of accumulated sun damage.
3. Nicotinamide — 500mg twice daily reduces the risk of new skin cancers in select high-risk patients.
4. Non-ablative fractional lasers — emerging evidence suggests a potential role in reducing subsequent skin cancers in sun-damaged skin.
5. Regular skin checks — know your skin and catch changes early.

Protect against future damage — and address the damage already there. 🤍

A 2026 study examined aging skin after 1940-nm non-ablative fractional laser treatment — down to its epigenetic signature.

Researchers found changes in pathways involved in collagen, skin repair and regeneration.

Most interestingly, 84% of the age-related changes shifted toward patterns typically seen in younger, healthier skin.

Another study in 2023 followed patients with a history of facial skin cancer. Those treated with non-ablative fractional lasers had about half the rate of subsequent keratinocyte cancers: 20.9% vs. 40.4%.

Together, these findings support what we’re increasingly seeing in the science: fractional lasers do more than improve how skin looks. They stimulate repair and regeneration, remodel collagen, and show promise in supporting skin health and longevity.
