Skin Lesion Check-Up
A specialized examination program aimed at the early detection and monitoring of various skin lesions, including moles, papillomas, and other pigmented or non-pigmented areas. Early identification of changes in skin lesions allows for timely diagnosis of potential malignant processes and the implementation of necessary treatment measures.
Program includes:
Consultation with a physician: A specialist conducts a thorough skin examination, collects medical history, and identifies any patient complaints.
Dermatoscopy: A non-invasive procedure that uses a special device (dermatoscope) to closely examine the structure of skin lesions and detect signs of potential malignancy.
Histological examination, if necessary: Analysis of a tissue sample to accurately determine the nature of the lesion.
Indications for Undergoing a Skin Lesion Check-Up:
Presence of a large number of moles (more than 50) or an increase in their size: A significant number of moles or their growth can increase the risk of developing melanoma.
Changes in color, shape, or structure of existing skin lesions: Any alterations in moles or other skin formations may indicate malignant processes.
Appearance of new moles or other skin lesions: The emergence of new formations, especially after the age of 40, requires attention and examination.
Frequent trauma to moles (e.g., during shaving or due to clothing friction): Constant damage to moles can contribute to their malignancy.
Hereditary predisposition to skin diseases or skin cancer: A family history of skin cancer increases the risk of its development.
Light skin phototype, tendency to sunburns: Individuals with fair skin are more susceptible to developing skin cancer, especially with frequent sunburns.
Regular skin lesion check-ups enable the timely detection and prevention of serious skin conditions, ensuring your health and peace of mind.
