A comprehensive skin assessment helps detect changes early and ensures any concerns are reviewed, documented, and managed appropriately over time.
A full skin check generally takes around 15 minutes and involves a thorough examination of your skin, including areas not regularly exposed to the sun. Appropriate lighting and dermatoscopic tools are used to support accurate assessment and clear clinical documentation.
You may be asked to undress to your underwear for a complete assessment, with a gown provided for comfort and privacy. Suspicious lesions can be photographed and securely recorded to allow for consistent comparison and monitoring across future visits.
Regular skin checks are recommended for individuals with a history of skin cancer, high sun exposure, or multiple moles. Ongoing review helps identify changes early and supports timely, appropriate management where required.
