To address a lack of awareness surrounding skin cancer, Brazil's Horarios Dermatology Clinic created DiagnostiCookies as an appealing way to reach the public and deliver an important PSA. Brazil is the country with the highest rate of solar radiation and skin cancer is the most common cancer. With the aid of the marketing communications agency Wunderman Thompson, the clinic created edible PSAs that look like melanoma moles.
While one row of perfectly round cookies show that people should be looking for even borders, symmetry, one color and certain sizes when inspecting moles, the second row of DiagnostiCookies highlights what the opposite looks like so that it's easier to take action on uneven or odd-looking moles on skin.
