Frequently Asked Questions

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a type of skin cancer that develops in the squamous cells, which are the thin, flat cells that make up the outer layer of the skin. SCC usually appears as a scaly patch on the skin that is red, white, or tan in color.

 

It can also appear as a sore that does not heal or a growth on the mucous membranes, such as the lips or mouth. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to see a dermatologist so that they can properly diagnose and treat your cancer.

The best way to recognize squamous cell carcinoma is to see a dermatologist for a skin check-up. They will be able to properly diagnose your condition and recommend the best course of treatment.

Squamous cell carcinoma can spread quickly if it’s left untreated. It can metastasize, or spread, to other parts of the body within months or even weeks. This is why it’s important to see a dermatologist as soon as you notice any changes in your skin.
