Skin cancers can be mainly classified into two categories either Melanoma or non melanoma skin cancers.  Non melanoma skin cancers are the common ones.  They are Basal Cell Cancers, Squamous Cell Cancers and Aktinic keratosis  (pre cancers).  Melanoma can spread to other organs if not treated early.
