Melanoma risk is not static. It is influenced by how Australians live, work, and expose their skin to ultraviolet radiation every day.
In this webinar and Q&A session, Prof Pascale Guitera (Melanoma Institute Australia) unpacks the pathophysiology of melanoma, with a focus on UVA exposure, year-round photoprotection, and what this means for everyday general practice.
Delivered in collaboration with La Roche Posay, this webinar teaches how to:
- Interpret UV index information and apply it to patient counselling
- Explain the role of UVA exposure in melanoma development and prevention
- Advise patients on appropriate sunscreen use, including formulation and quantity
- Distinguish between mineral and chemical sunscreens in clinical contexts
- Understand regulatory considerations affecting sunscreen availability
- Apply current Australian melanoma screening principles in general practice
