Topical Skin Treatments
At Skin C, we provide effective topical treatments to repair sun-damaged skin and reduce the risk of skin cancer.These treatments are a non-invasive way to manage early signs of sun damage — before they develop into something more serious. If your skin shows signs of damage, topical therapy can be a powerful step toward prevention.
What Is Topical Skin Treatment?
Topical skin treatments use prescription creams or gels to treat areas of sun-damaged or pre-cancerous skin.
This method can:
- Target actinic keratoses (precancerous spots)
- Improve skin texture and appearance
- Lower your risk of future skin cancers
- Support healthy skin regeneration
It’s a safe, in-clinic or at-home option guided by our experienced medical team.

FAQ
What are topical skin treatments used for?
Topical treatments are creams or gels applied directly to the skin to treat early skin cancers or pre-cancerous lesions like actinic keratoses. They’re a non-invasive alternative to surgery in suitable cases.
What types of topical treatments are available?
Common options include 5-fluorouracil (Efudix), imiquimod (Aldara), and ingenol mebutate (Picato). These medications work by targeting abnormal cells and stimulating the immune system to destroy them.
Are topical treatments effective for all skin cancers?
No, they’re typically recommended for superficial basal cell carcinomas or pre-cancerous changes. More invasive skin cancers usually require surgical removal or other treatment methods.
What should I expect during treatment?
Redness, peeling, crusting, and irritation at the treatment site are normal signs the cream is working. Your doctor will guide you on how long to use the treatment and how to manage side effects.
