If a suspicious mole is detected during your visit to MoleMap skin cancer clinic Hawera, 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.
