🔍 What Is Melanoma?
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer that begins in melanocytes — the cells that produce pigment (melanin).
While less common than other skin cancers (like basal or squamous cell carcinoma), melanoma is more dangerous because it can spread quickly if not treated early.
📊 According to the American Cancer Society:
Over 100,000 new melanoma cases are diagnosed each year in the U.S.
The 5-year survival rate is over 99% when caught before it spreads
That’s why knowing what to look for matters so much.
