Understand your skin cancer risk in two minutes.
A short, evidence-based assessment based on the risk factors dermatologists actually use. Get a personalized recommendation for how often to be screened.
Question 1 · Skin type
How does your skin respond to sun?
Choose the Fitzpatrick type that best matches your unprotected skin's typical response to a full day outdoors.
Question 2 · Medical history
Have you or your family had a diagnosis?
Personal and first-degree family history are two of the strongest predictors we consider.
Question 3 · Moles
Tell us about your moles.
A rough estimate is fine.
These are the classic clinical signs of melanoma. It's fine to leave them all unchecked.
Question 4 · Sun exposure
Tell us about your lifetime sun history.
Cumulative UV exposure and blistering sunburns before age 20 both meaningfully raise risk.
Question 5 · Other factors
A few final risk factors.
Age and immune status independently affect risk, as does living where UV is intense.
