How often should I get my skin checked?

There are a number of factors, including personal and family history, skin type and level of exposure to the sun to take into account.

What does a skin check involve?

The doctor may study your skin for any changes or abnormalities that require further investigation. This is a painless procedure.

What is the difference between a skin cancer clinic and a check by my GP?

Skin cancer clinics usually employ doctors with specialist experience in skin cancer diagnosis and treatment with additional equipment for checks.

Can I request my skin check be performed by a female doctor?

Yes. Provided that the clinic has a female doctor, it is absolutely ok to request this at the time of your booking.
