Allergan Aesthetics Pledges Donation for New Allē Member Referrals During Skin Cancer Awareness Month
Support skin care awareness when you refer a friend to the Allē program this May.
Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company, announced a charitable initiative in recognition of Skin Cancer Awareness Month. Throughout May, the company will donate $10 to The Skin Cancer Foundation for every new person who joins Allē through its “Refer a Friend” program, up to a total contribution of $100,000. New members who join through a referral will also receive $50 off their first Allergan Aesthetics treatment and the referring member will receive $10 off their next treatment*.
“As a leader in aesthetics, our commitment extends beyond treatment to education, prevention, and long-term skin health,” said Nicole Mowad-Nassar, Senior Vice President, AbbVie and President, Global Allergan Aesthetics. “Through Allē and our Members, we’re able to activate the community in a meaningful way by encouraging them to share the program while supporting broader awareness around skin cancer and the importance of protecting skin health every day.”
Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States, with millions of cases diagnosed each year. According to The Skin Cancer Foundation, one in five Americans will develop skin cancer by the age of 70, and having five or more sunburns doubles the risk for melanoma, making education and early detection critical.
“When it comes to skin cancer, prevention starts with daily habits,” said Dr. Mona Gohara, board-certified dermatologist. “This includes wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, seeking shade during peak UV hours, and avoiding tanning beds. Regular skin checks at home and annual visits to a dermatologist are also key to catching any changes early.”
Through this partnership, Allergan Aesthetics and The Skin Cancer Foundation are united in their efforts to protect skin health, combining the Foundation’s leadership in driving awareness of skin cancer prevention with Allergan Aesthetics’ focus on education.
“Education is one of the most powerful tools we have in preventing skin cancer,” said Deborah S. Sarnoff, MD, President of The Skin Cancer Foundation. “By partnering with Allergan Aesthetics, we have an opportunity to reach more people with life-saving information about sun safety and early detection, which is at the core of our mission.”
