Why Mole Checks Are Important

Regular mole checks are a crucial preventive step for maintaining healthy skin and detecting skin cancer early. Many skin cancers, including melanoma, can develop from moles or unusual skin lesions. Early detection:

Improves treatment outcomes
Can be life-saving

Provides peace of mind

A professional mole check ensures even subtle changes are evaluated by a board-certified dermatologist, helping protect your skin before problems arise.

What to Expect During Your Mole Check

At MDCS Dermatology, our experienced dermatologists perform a thorough full-body skin examination. Each mole is carefully evaluated using the ABCDE method:

Asymmetry – One half of the mole does not match the other
Border irregularities – Edges are uneven, blurred, or notched
Color variation – Multiple shades or uneven color distribution
Diameter – Larger than 6mm, about the size of a pencil eraser
Evolution – Changes in size, shape, color, or symptoms such as itching or bleeding

We may also use digital photography or mole mapping to track changes over time, ensuring early detection of any suspicious developments.
