Did you know: 1 in 5 people will develop some type of skin cancer by age 70? For this reason, we encourage our seniors to have regular skin checks for signs of cancer or other common skin conditions that present in mature skin.
As parents, our children watch and follow our every move so it’s important to teach them healthy habits including taking care of our skin.
