Melanoma and Skin Cancer Clinic


Examination
We offer an extensive and comprehensive skin examination that encompasses your entire body, typically lasting between 30-40 mins.
DermaScan
Mole mapping is the most advanced and comprehensive method to diagnose skin cancer early.
At Dermascan we use Fotofinder technology that is powered by AI. This state of the art technology enables Total Body Mapping and dermoscopy.
During your yearly skin checks the Fotofinder system can easily and quickly identify any new pigmented lesions and can detect any change in existing lesions with a high level of accuracy. This cutting edge technology assists our Melanographers to tailor their skin checks and enables them to pick up skin cancer as early as possible.
