Australia has one of the highest melanoma rates in the world which makes regular skin checks more than just a good idea. Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes.
Keep an eye out for:
• New moles or spots
• Changes in size, shape or colour
• Irregular borders
• Lesions that itch, bleed or don’t heal
Prevention also matters. Use SPF daily, wear protective clothing and avoid peak UV hours where possible. If you’ve noticed a change or simply haven’t had your skin checked in a while, a GP consultation can provide reassurance or early intervention if needed.
Whether you’re a returning patient or visiting us for the first time, our team can assist and walk-ins are accommodated when capacity allows.
Book your skin check today and protect your skin with confidence.
