Training for aesthetic and body care professionals developed with Design Thinking methodology: An innovative strategy for skin cancer screening

Background: Training professionals in aesthetics and body care (PABC) to identify suspicious lesions represents a crucial initiative that can significantly expand the skin cancer screening network. This approach aims to increase early diagnosis rates, enabling more effective treatments and reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with the disease. This project focuses on training PABC, who frequently work with areas of the body that are difficult to examine, such as the neck, back, and soles of the feet.
