黑色素瘤的发病率在全球范围内不断上升，自1981年以来，美国的发病率每年增加约2.8%。黑色素瘤在白人中更常见，通常在男性中更普遍。然而，美国44岁以下的白色女性黑色素瘤发病率每年增加6.1%，人们越来越担心年轻女性皮肤癌的增加可能反映了室内晒黑的最新趋势。黑色素瘤的发病率在较高经济群体中也较高。在全球范围内，澳大利亚的黑色素瘤发病率最高，其次是美国和欧洲部分地区。
The incidence of melanoma is rising worldwide, and in the United States has increased by approximately 2.8% annually since 1981. Melanoma is more common in whites, and is generally more prevalent in men. However, there is a 6.1% annual increase in US incidence of melanomas in white women younger than age 44, with growing concern that increases in skin cancer in younger women may reflect recent trends in indoor tanning. Melanoma incidence is also greater in higher economic groups. Globally, melanoma incidence is highest in Australia, followed by the United States and parts of Europe.
