Skin Cancer Checks
We provide comprehensive skin cancer examinations to detect skin cancer early.
Your appointment includes a full body skin check using dermoscopy, a specialised magnifying device that allows detailed assessment of moles and skin lesions. This helps identify melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and precancerous sun damage.
If a suspicious lesion is found, we will discuss the best management options with you. Some lesions can be treated during the same visit, while others may require a follow-up procedure.
You are welcome to bring a support person, or a nurse can be present during your examination.

Technology We Use
Dermoscopy
A specialised magnifying device that allows detailed examination of moles and early detection of skin cancer. The procedure is quick and painless.
Digital Mole Monitoring
Selected moles can be photographed and monitored over time to detect subtle changes.
Lesion Removal and Biopsy
Some superficial lesions can be treated with cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen) during your visit. Other lesions may require minor surgical removal or biopsy.
Artificial Intelligence Imaging
We use DermEngine, an advanced imaging system that stores and analyses mole images to assist with monitoring and early detection.
Total Body Photography
A baseline photographic record of your skin that helps detect new or changing moles over time. Particularly useful for patients with many moles or higher melanoma risk.
MoleScope App
Patients can securely access their mole images and records through the MoleScope smartphone app. Images can also be submitted for remote review if needed.
