Skin Cancer Checks & Assessment
For a community that skews young and is building new health routines from scratch, annual skin checks are one of the most worthwhile habits to establish early. Skin cancer does not exclusively affect older Australians, and the earlier your doctor has a baseline picture of your skin, the more useful every subsequent check becomes.
Skin Cancer Check Near Clyde North
Our qualified doctors carry out thorough full body skin cancer checks, examining your skin from head to toe including areas that are difficult or impossible to self-examine. The scalp, the back of the neck, between the toes, and the soles of the feet are all part of a complete assessment. Most appointments take between 20 and 30 minutes, and your doctor will walk you through any findings before you leave.
Mole Check Clyde North
A mole that has recently changed in colour, size, or shape (or one that has simply never been looked at by a qualified doctor) deserves a proper clinical assessment rather than a wait-and-see approach. You will leave with a clear answer on what the mole is and whether any action is needed.
Mole Mapping Near Clyde North
For patients with a high mole count, a family history of melanoma, or years of significant sun exposure, mole mapping creates a detailed photographic baseline of your skin. Your doctor compares this record at future visits to identify any changes that may warrant further assessment.
Skin Cancer Procedures
Where a diagnosis is confirmed following clinical assessment, your doctor explains the recommended treatment in clear terms and carries out the appropriate procedure based on your individual circumstances and the nature of the lesion involved.
Mole Removal South-East Melbourne
Suspicious or concerning lesions may require surgical excision or biopsy to assist with accurate diagnosis. Both procedures are performed at our clinic under local anaesthetic, and results are communicated back to you directly and promptly.
Cryotherapy (Freezing Treatment)
Certain benign skin growths and early-stage surface lesions can be treated using cryotherapy, a controlled freezing technique applied directly to the affected area. Your doctor determines whether cryotherapy is the appropriate approach after examining the lesion at your appointment.
