Aim of this study was to investigate changes in health behavior of melanoma survivors with emphasis on safe sun behavior (SSB) and skin self-examination (SSE). We also identified factors with significant impact on SSE improvement. We performed a cross-sectional (epidemiological) survey based on a structured questionnaire. 150 patients from three medical institutions were invited and 144 patients responded. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS version 23.0, with the level of significance set to 0.05. After being diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma, patients significantly improved preventive health behavior: 68.1% showed improvement in SSE, and 91.5% of patients improved SSB. There was statistically significant (P<0.001) improvement in the frequency of skin examination, examination of poorly visible areas (between the toes, genitals), and obtaining help in examination. Use of melanoma images remained scarce. Results for SSB were even better, and statistically significant improvement was recorded in all areas: using higher UV protection filters, wearing sunglasses, headgear, long sleeves, and trousers, and especially in staying in deep shade during hours of heavy UV radiation. The only factor with a positive influence on expected improvement in SSE was female gender. On the other hand, there were two factors that had a negative impact on SSE: patients with melanoma stage 1 and patients who had already self-examined themselves before their melanoma diagnosis. Preventive health behavior improved significantly after diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma. Patients markedly improved SSB and substantially enhanced SSE. We believe that it is reasonable to improve SSE further, encouraging patients by increasing their feeling of self-efficacy.
