Do I need to get a skin check?

Our patients are people from all walks of life. Here are some of the risk factors that increase the risk of having a skin cancer:

• A family member has had a skin cancer treated
• You have been sunburned in the past, particularly as a child
• You have used a solarium in the past, particularly under the age of 30
• You have a large number of moles on your body
• You work outdoors or have done so in the past
• You regularly pursue an outdoor sport such as cricket, golf, surfing, running, or swimming
• You have had a skin cancer before
• You have a very fair skin which burns easily

What happens during a skin check?

We perform a whole body skin examination and carefully examine the skin for any signs of early skin cancer. If we see something suspicious, we can perform a biopsy and get pathology results in a few days. We can also freeze or remove lesions by cutting them out (excision).

These procedures are performed in our rooms under sterile conditions. All our surgical equipment is cleaned and sterilized according to the highest Australian industry standards. Our doctors are fully trained in all surgical and non-surgical skin cancer treatments.

Prior to any procedure, you will be given a full explanation of what is required and will be able to ask as many questions as you like.
