The Skin Cancer Foundation is encouraging dermatologists to participate in Heads Up!, an education program that provides beauty professionals with tips on what to look for and how to speak to their clients if they spot a suspicious lesion. Dermatologists can host an educational event where hairstylists and aestheticians will learn about skin cancer and its warning signs. Because early detection is critical, the Heads Up! program ensures that this group of first responders will be prepared to give a “heads up” to their clients if they see something suspicious, encouraging the client to visit a dermatologist in a timely manner.
