Actinic Keratosis

Actinic Keratosis

Have years of sun exposure given you small rough, red, scaly spots on your skin?

These may be Actinic Keratosis (AK) which may develop into skin cancer. AK results from chronic exposure to the sun. A research study is being conducted for adults with 4 to 8 of these small rough, red scaly spots in one area either on your face, or scalp. If qualified, you'll receive investigational study medication at no cost and compensation for your time.
