TL;DR

Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S., with melanoma being less common but more deadly, and nonmelanoma types like basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma being more prevalent. Early diagnosis and treatment, often through Mohs surgery, are crucial for a good prognosis. Preventive measures include using sunscreen, performing regular skin self-exams, and wearing protective clothing.
