Our Skin Services
Skin Checks
We offer full-body skin checks using advanced dermoscopy to detect early signs of skin cancer. Ideal for routine screening, early diagnosis, and peace of mind.
Mole Check
Our mole checks focus on identifying changes in size, shape, or colour that may indicate skin cancer. We use precise dermoscopic tools for accurate assessment and monitoring.
Melanoma Detection & Management
We detect melanoma early using advanced imaging and expert care. Personalised treatment plans ensure timely care and ongoing monitoring.
Skin Biopsy
When a lesion looks suspicious, we perform a skin biopsy to determine whether it's benign, pre-cancerous, or malignant.
Surgical Procedures
We offer precise surgical excisions of skin cancers and suspicious lesions, aiming for minimal scarring and complete removal.
Topical Skin Treatments
Topical creams and gels can treat sun-damaged or early cancerous skin cells without surgery, with personalised treatment plans for each patient.
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
This non-surgical light-based treatment targets sun-damaged and pre-cancerous skin, offering minimal downtime and excellent cosmetic results.

Early Detection
The sooner a skin cancer is identified and treated, the better your chance of avoiding surgery, potential disfigurement, or even death. Regular skin checks and early detection are crucial.
Signs to look for
- Any crusty, non-healing sores.
- Small lumps that are red, pale, or pearly in color.
- New spots, freckles, or any moles changing in size, color, or shape.
Treatment and prevention
- Skin cancers are almost always removed. In more advanced cases, surrounding tissue may also be removed.
- Certain skin cancers can also be treated with ointments, liquid nitrogen, curettage (scraping), or cautery (burning).
- Prevention is key. We recommend a combination of sun protection measures, including wearing sun-protective clothing, applying SPF 50 sunscreen, wearing a hat, seeking shade, and wearing sunglasses.
