“Melanoma writes its message on the skin with its own ink, and it is there for all of us to see. Unfortunately some see, but do not comprehend”
Dr. Neville Davis
Risk Assessment
You will be asked to fill in a questionnaire to assess your risk for skin cancer. You can also find it in here.
Mole Mapping
We will ask you to undress behind a curtain, you can leave your underwear on. When you are on the examination bed, we will take photo’s of your body. This will give us a good reference to assess if lesions change at later skin checks.
Microscopic Exam
When you lie on the examination bed, the doctor will use a hand held microscope with special polarized light to closely examine all the lesions on your skin.
Treatment Advice
The doctor will discuss his findings with you. If there are lesions of concern found, there might be different treatment options. The doctor will also advice if further skin checks are needed.
