The Truth About Squamous Cell Carcinoma: What You Need to Know Now!

Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) is one of the most common types of skin cancer, second only to basal cell carcinoma. It arises from the squamous cells, which are found in the outer layer of the skin (the epidermis). This type of cancer can develop in any part of the body but is most commonly found in areas frequently exposed to the sun, such as the face, ears, neck, and hands. Understanding how to detect and treat SCC is crucial for ensuring effective management and improving patient outcomes.
