Skin Checks & Skin Clinic

​

The medical practitioners at PLMG are experienced in skin/mole checks and minor surgical procedures. They may use digital imaging to record lesions and moles to monitor them over time.  The doctors have high quality dermatoscopes to closely examine skin lesions and they can also provide general dermatology care including management of dermatitis, eczema, rosacea and psoriasis. Preventative measures can also be offered.

​

The Skin Check Clinic runs on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.  The medical practitioner will undertake an extensive skin check to assess for the presence of skin cancer and sun damage, monitor any new or changing lesions, and offer management advice and treatment as required.If suspicious lesions are detected they will either be removed in the clinic, or patients may be referred to specialists for excision.

The sooner a skin cancer is identified and treated, the better the result. Precancerous changes can be identified, photographed and managed to reduce the risk of skin cancer development. These photographs will be entered into your health history and monitored over time.
