A shocking new report presented at the European Academy of Dermatology and Neurology Congress 2023 found that there are now more global deaths from non-melanoma skin cancers than melanoma itself. Experts say that the growing aging population could be one reason for the increase in cancer deaths for this treatable, and often preventable, condition.
So, while non-melanoma skin cancers are generally less deadly than melanomas, their prevalence is so high that the number of deaths is higher. Non-melanoma skin cancers include basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. “It’s surprising to see how high the mortality rate for non-melanoma skin cancers is, as most would assume melanoma to be the most lethal skin cancer type,” said New York cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Michele Green. Green says there are several reasons why non-melanoma skin cancer deaths are increasing that include the aging global population and age-related accumulation of UV radiation exposure and the depletion of our ozone layer.
