There are many types of skin cancer and the most common is basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Both of these can be cured if treated early. A third type is called malignant melanoma, and it is more serious. It is estimated that about 600,000 or more Americans get skin cancer each year and around 10,000 will die. Women get it more often then men. However, some good news almost 90% of skin cancer cases are cured.  ( See also Cancer )
