“At my annual full body skin exam, the melanographer found a small pin-sized spot on my ear and recommended I have it examined further. It turned out to be cancerous. If it wasn’t for MoleMap, it would have gone unnoticed.”

Your questions, answered

Who’s the best person to perform a mole check in Taupo?

GPs, dermatologists, specially trained health professionals, and surgeons can provide mole checks. The best person is the clinician you feel most comfortable with. If your GP spots a suspicious lesion, they may refer you to a skin specialist or skin cancer doctor for diagnosis. MoleMap skin cancer checks are provided by melanographers. These are health professionals with additional train­ing in the ear­ly detec­tion of melanoma and other skin cancers. If a suspicious mole is detected it is digitally imaged and, using AI, cross-checked against our world-class image database. Moles of concern are sent to an accredited dermatologist for diagnosis. This ensures the greatest accuracy and streamlines your journey to treatment—if needed.

Is skin cancer treatment offered at MoleMap skin cancer clinic Taupo?

Yes. At MoleMap Taupo, a skin cancer doctor can provide minimally invasive and more advanced skin cancer treatment. This includes surgical, topical and cryotherapy.  Talk to one of our friendly staff to find out more. Call us on 0800 665 362.

What’s the cost of a skin cancer check in Taupo?

The price of a mole check in Taupo can vary. It depends on the provider you choose, and the type of skin check.  At our skin cancer clinic Taupo, all our services include a full head-to-toe skin check.

Full Body MoleMap is our most comprehensive mole check service. This includes full body imaging, individual mole mapping, and ongoing, proactive skin monitoring. It provides you with a baseline of images. These can be used as a reference for future skin checks. Full Body MoleMap is recommended for anyone with a medi­um to high risk of get­ting melanoma.

SkinCheck is ideal for people at low risk or who have spotted a new or changing mole. 

NOTE: There's the option to have it with total body imaging (SkinCheck+) or without. For more information on the pricing and the features of each skin check, visit our Services page. Don’t know your skin cancer risk? Take our quick risk quiz to find out.

How often should you have a skin check?

There’s no hard and fast rule for how frequently you should book a skin check. We recommend that most people book an annual mole check in Taupo. If you are at high risk of skin cancer, you may be advised to book more frequently (every six months). We also recommend that you do a self-check for skin cancer every three months. The start of a new season is a great reminder. Haven’t had a skin check in a while? Book a mole check in Taupo here.
