Can you let me know how many months/years does it take for a sunburn to become skin cancer?

Information: It generally takes many years.Fortunately not all sunburns result in skin cancer. You should know that even one sunburn equivalent to a second degee burn with blistering and peeling cna ultimately result is skin cancer later in life.

Different for each: Person. One severe sunburn in a very fair-skinned person with poor cellular dna repair or genetic-based cancer tendency may be enough (such as when seen in children), or it may take years and may exposures to damaging ultraviolet radiation. Since you cannot gauge your genetic or dna-repair status, it's generally best to avoid all sunburns, and limit even non-burning sun exposure. Use high spf!

Years: The reported time from a severe sunburn and skin cancer is 30 years.
