What is Actinic Keratosis?

Actinic keratosis (AK) is a precancerous skin condition that results from long-term exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays. It appears as rough, scaly patches on the skin and can be pink, red, or brown in color. Actinic keratosis is most commonly found on the face, scalp, neck, and hands, and can develop into skin cancer if left untreated.
