What are the kinds of skin cancers? Which are most common? There are three types of skin cancer: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and malignant melanoma. Excess ultraviolet light that is found in both natural sunlight and tanning beds is the main cause of skin cancer. Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer, squamous cell carcinoma is second, and malignant melanoma is the third most common skin cancer. If any growth or mole demonstrates sudden growth, changes color, becomes tender, or bleeds, further evaluation is recommended. Early detection is crucial in the treatment of a skin cancer. | |||||||||
