Professional Mole Check Methodology
MelanomaMobil is an international skin cancer, mole check and melanoma screening clinic in London’s Harley Street, founded in 2005.
The service is based on a unique mole-mapping technology where each and every mole is recorded and assessed by two independent specialists. During the follow-up consultations every mole is compared to its previous state in our evaluation centre, therefore we can judge the biological behaviour of each mole and detect changes that might reveal potential malignant transformations invisible to the naked eye. By the end of 2011 we have completed over 31,000 screenings, detected more than 150 cases of early stage melanomas and more than 500 cases of skin cancer.
- Are you concerned about your moles? Are you worried they might not be normal or that they might conceal hidden danger, even though they look OK?
- Do you suspect that one of your moles is showing signs of changing or becoming irregular?
- Do you have a lot of moles which makes it difficult to keep track of them?
- Or have you just heard about the dangers of melanoma and would like to have peace of mind about your own health?
If you have answered ‘Yes’ to anyone of the questions above check out why is it worth booking a MelanomaMobil mole check:
1. Our full body mole check with mole mapping means the moles and skin lesions on your body are not simply looked at by our specialist dermatologist in our Harley Street clinic but are recorded and stored one by one with special cameras (digital dermatoscopy) for later comparison.
2. Images of all your moles are examined in our evaluation centre by specialist dermatologists who are experienced and trained in the field of dermatoscopy. This brings objectivity to our assessment because you have the opinion of a second doctor.
3. At the time of your follow-up examination(s) our specialists in the evaluation centre can compare the images of your moles with records from the previous stage(s) – comparative analysis. This way we can immediately detect any ‘changes over time’ which is the only foolproof indication of an early malignancy. These subtle signs are undetectable without having earlier images for comparison.
4. Our mole checking methodology is completely safe and totally painless, and, as an added extra, our clinics are friendly and our staff well-trained and highly experienced.
