About Basal Cell Carcinoma Treatment

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common malignancy in humans. It typically occurs in areas of chronic sun exposure. BCC is usually slow growing and rarely metastasizes, but it can cause clinically significant local destruction and disfigurement if neglected or treated inadequately. Prognosis is excellent with proper therapy.

Basal Cell Carcinoma - BCC Basal Cell Carcinoma (known as BCC) starts between the dermis and epidermis of the skin, also known as the basal cell layer. BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, which accounts for around 75% to 80% of non-melanoma skin cancers.

BCC is rarely life threatening and grows slow, but if left untreated will ulcerate and spread the tumor, causing more damage to the skin. The longer it is left untreated, more skin tissue is invaded and the lesion becomes larger and more noticeable, which could lead to one loosing a nose, eye, ear or any outer body part that is affected.

BCC develops on parts of your skin that have regular exposure to the sun and incident rates are reported as 33-39% in men and 23-28% in women. The risk doubles if you have been exposed to five or more sun burns in your lifetime.

Race: BCC is generally a disorder of white individuals, especially those with fair skin. It is rare in dark-skinned individuals.

Age: BCC most commonly occurs in adulthood, especially in the elderly population

Detection of Basal Cell Carcinoma

There are 4 types of Basal Cell Carcinoma. To detect BCC, look for any of these 4 changes in skin:

Nodular:

The most common form. These nodules are waxy or pearly in appearance and may have superficial transparent blood vessels.

Cicatricial or Sclerosing:

Yellow and waxy. Difficult to completely eradicate, with a high re-growth recurrence rate.

Erythematoid or Superficial:

Raised, pinkish, scaly and pigmented skin. Dark brown or black are relatively uncommon and are confused with the deadly melanoma.

If any of these changes occur to your skin, it is recommended you see your medical practitioner so that you can be informed about the skin changes, assess the risk and/or possible treatment. Regular exposure to the sun

How can Curaderm-BEC5 treat Basal Cell Carcinoma?

Curaderm-BEC5 finds every trace of Basal Cell Carcinoma by using specific cell receptors which only allow the precancerous cells to be recognised. These cells are then destroyed and removed completely for good, leaving the healthy skin cells unharmed. Curaderm BEC5 treatment looks after the normal skin healing process after the precancerous cells have been removed completely.
