Melanoma Fund appoints Dr Sophie Shotter as ‘skin aesthetic expert’

With more than a decade of medical experience, Dr Shotter is regularly featured in the media as an expert voice in all things skin health. As a specialist in sun damage, she is well-placed to support Melanoma Fund on its mission to increase awareness around the cause and effects of sun exposure as well as the psychology of sun protection, to help create better habits.

In addition to acting as an ambassador, Dr Shotter will also take on the role of a consultant, utilising her wealth of expertise to help push the charity forward, providing new and relevant content to help make sun protection ‘famous in sport’.

“There is a lot of misinformation and misconceptions around sun protection that impact both skin cancer and sun damage, so it’s important to me that the risks and prevention measures are accurately communicated,” said Shotter. “Working with the Melanoma Fund provides a great opportunity to do this.”
