Dr. Anatoli Freiman discusses skin cancer and dangers of tanning in Elle Canada magazine.

Our dermatologist Dr. Anatoli Freiman discusses skin cancer and dangers of tanning in Elle Canada magazine. Dr. Freiman recommends giving yourself regular exams – inspecting the body for changes in moles or the sudden growth of sores or skin discolorations. See your doctor for regular checkups if you are high risk (people with fair skin that burns or freckles instead of tans; blondes and red heads; those with many moles and people with a history of sun exposure or family history of melanoma). Dr. Freiman also suggests minimizing sun exposure between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., wearing a hat and sunglasses, and sporting a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30.
