skin cancer develops when the body's DNA becomes damaged. The cells begin to grow and divide uncontrollably. The multiplying cells in skin cancer are more visible than in other cancers since it typically begins in the outer layer of the skin. The tumor that is formed can be seen when it is very small making most skin cancers detectable even in the early stages. So briefly, where does skin cancer occur? The answer is in the outer layers of the skin, anywhere on your body.
