Actinic Keratosis

Actinic keratosis is one of the most common signs of years spent in the sun, appearing as rough, scaly patches on sun-exposed areas like the face, scalp, hands, and arms.

While usually harmless, these patches are worth taking seriously since up to 10% can develop into skin cancer in 7-8 years if left untreated. The good news: actinic keratosis is highly treatable, from topical medications to gentle in-office procedures.
