What Is Mole Scanning and Why Is It Important?
Mole scanning is a non-invasive skin health screening that involves examining your moles and skin lesions for any signs of abnormalities or potential skin cancer, including melanoma – the most serious form of skin cancer.
Early detection of suspicious moles can be lifesaving. Regular mole checks can help identify changes in size, shape, colour, or texture that might warrant further investigation.
Common reasons people seek mole scanning include:
-
A new mole appearing
-
Changes in an existing mole
-
Moles that itch, bleed, or hurt
-
A family history of skin cancer
-
General skin health monitoring
If you have concerns, it’s always better to get a professional assessment promptly. For more information on moles, see the NHS website.
