We encourage patients to be familiar with their skin and to be aware of any changes that might suggest a skin cancer.
Look for anything changing uniquely on your skin anywhere for more than 2-3 weeks.
Evidence could include:
- Crusty sores,
- Skin lesions that don't heal,
- New spots,
- Freckles, or moles,
- Skin areas or lesions that change in colour or thickness.
If you notice any of these changes, arrange an appointment with our Doctors for a skin check immediately.
While you may be able to find a few pre-cancerous or cancerous moles yourself, it is always better to put your trust on a Skin Cancer Clinic that has effective and accurate tools in detecting skin cancer.
