Waters Edge Dermatology Offers Complimentary Skin Cancer Screenings in May for Skin Cancer Awareness Month

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (PRWEB) May 06, 2013

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. During Skin Cancer Awareness Month this May, Floridians can get free skin cancer screenings at several Waters Edge Dermatology clinics.

Free skin cancer screenings are by appointment and take place at the following Water's Edge clinics: Sebring on May 7 and May 28; Vero Beach on May 16; Lighthouse Point and Delray Beach on May 20; and Palm Bay on May 23.

According to the American Cancer Society, skin cancer accounts for nearly half of all cancers in the United States, with one in five people having some form of skin cancer. Melanoma, the most serious type of skin cancer, will account for more than 76,600 cases of skin cancer in 2013, resulting in roughly 9,000 deaths annually.

Its so unfortunate when a patient waits too long to be screened and melanoma is found way too late, as its very treatable if found early, says Justin Platzer, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist and Mohs skin cancer surgeon at Waters Edge Dermatology.

Darlene Moore of West Palm Beach, Fla., echoes Dr. Platzers sentiment of the importance of diagnosing melanoma early. During a regular skin cancer screening at Waters Edge Dermatology, Shanna Stone, ARNP, saw a few areas of concern on Ms. Moores ear and arm and took biopsies. Ms. Moore was diagnosed with Stage 1 melanoma on her arm and basal cell carcinoma on her ear.

The basal cell, frankly, I wasnt as concerned about, says Ms. Moore. Dr. Platzer reassured me that Mohs surgery was very effective for basal cell carcinoma and he was able to get it all. But I was really concerned about melanoma, because my brother-in-law died of melanoma.

Surgery is the best way to remove early melanomas, with later stages usually requiring more extensive treatment, such as radiation and chemotherapy. Mohs surgery saves the greatest amount of healthy tissue, appears to reduce the rate of local recurrence and has the highest overall cure rate about 94 percent to 99 percent of any treatment for squamous cell carcinoma. And generally, Mohs surgery is 98 percent or better for basal cell carcinoma, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.

As the old saying goes, An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, says Dr. Platzer. Say no to tanning beds and always wear sunscreen. And, if you live in sunny Florida, it is critical to have regular skin cancer screeningsand theres no better time than this month, while were offering screenings for free.

Many of Waters Edge Dermatology clinics are open Saturdays and late during the workweek. To make an appointment, visit http://www.WeDerm.com and fill out the online appointment form, email info(at)WeDerm(dot)com or call 561-694-9493 for more information.

Side Bar: Waters Edge Dermatology recommends the following tips to have fun in the sun and reduce risk for skin cancer at the same time:

Seki Edge Brings an Edge to Shaving with New Line of Razors for Men and Women

(PRWEB) December 28, 2012

Due to the rising interest in traditional shaving, Seki Edge is proud to introduce the new Double Edge Razors and Feather Artist Club Shaving Razors to its extensive line of grooming products for men and women. Both double edge and straight razors are now available to the public, showing once again that high quality steel is necessary in all grooming and beauty implements.

Seki Edge is offering two double edge razors, the Popular DE Razor and the Stainless Steel DE Razor. The Popular DE Razor is the more economical choice where the Stainless Steel Razor is meant for those who take shaving more seriously. Seki Edge is offering the double edge razor blades in either a 5-pack or 10-pack.

The three traditional razors come in either a straight or folded design. Tapping into the modern era, Feather, the manufacturer of these razors, has developed a replaceable blade that provides a traditional looking razor with modern functionality. Unlike traditional razors, there is no need to hone or strop these razors. For sanitation purposes and to best suit individual needs, four different blades were developed for the straight and folding razors. The Professional Blades are the most universal and versatile blades. The Light Blades are tailored for women or sensitive skin. The ProGuard Blades are guarded to give safe smooth strokes. Lastly, the Super Blade is recommended for shaving thick or heavy hair such as beard and moustache hair.

From the RG Straight Razor and the DX Razors to the Double Edge Razors, these grooming tools are made of high quality Japanese Stainless Steel to give the best performance and the closest shave possible. These razors have been tested and proven to accomplish a smooth shave and be extremely durable.
