The non-melanoma skin cancers are much more frequent but less dangerous than melanoma and rarely fatal. Basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma frequently appear on skin exposed to sunlight after many years of exposure.

Solar keratoses (actinic)
Solar keratoses develop on the skin that has been damaged by exposure to sun over the long term. Usually a large number are present and can appear as hard, scaly pieces. Some become unsightly as they grow slowly. The skin underneath the solar keratoses can vary in color from a shade normal fleshy pink or red. Sometimes, these lesions of the skin may become irritated. common sites are the face, back of hands, forearms, ears, scalp and neck. Solar keratoses are not skin cancers. However, a very small percentage can become a skin cancer in later life. Some scholars regard solar keratoses as precursors of skin cancer, it is important to consult a doctor about treatment.
