If a suspicious mole is detected during your visit to MoleMap skin cancer clinic Morrinsville, it will be dermoscopically imaged and sent for dermatologist diagnosis. If skin cancer is suspected, a biopsy will usually be recommended. This is a minor surgical procedure carried out under local anaesthetic. A small sample of tissue is removed for testing. The skin sample is looked at under a microscope to check for skin cancer.
Your mole check in Morrinsville involves a comprehensive skin examination by an experienced melanographer. They’ll check your skin from head to toe, including under your nails, the palms of your hands and the soles of your feet. Using AI technology, moles of concern are cross-referenced in real time against MoleMap’s robust image database. Suspicious moles or lesions are photographed using a dermatoscope. This produces high-quality images that can be magnified. The images are sent for dermatologist diagnosis. Within around 10 working days you’ll receive a full report and recommendation on the next steps, if action is needed.
