Basal Cell Carcinoma pictures

Know your skin

What does Basal Cell Carcinoma pictures look like?

Since not all basal cell carcinomas have the same appearance, these images should serve as a general reference to what they may look like. 

Basal cell carcinoma may resemble a slowly growing pink, skin-colored or light brown nodule on the skin, which gradually increases in size. Often a dark crust develops in the middle, which could bleed with a light touch. The tissue of the nodule can also look somewhat glassy, shiny and sometimes shows small blood vessels.

Wounds that do not heal can also be warning signs for skin cancer.

Early detection strategies are crucial for a successful outcome. Knowing your body and the signs and changes to look out for can give you the power to detect squamous cell carcinoma early when it’s easiest to treat. 

You will notice that all these skin cancer pictures are quite different from one another. Note that not all basal cell cancers have the same appearance so these photos should serve as a general reference for what they can look like.
