Skin Cancer in Kids

Dr. Deborah Longwill, Dermatologist with Baptist Health South Florida, highlights that children now are allowed to bring sunblock to school, and they are allowed to wear hats on the playground. She explains what happens to you in your childhood, like sunburns, will affect you 10 or 20 years later. "You may not have skin cancer, but your skin will start to get freckles and pigmentation and wrinkles."
