The Skin and Mole Clinic has the latest state of the art MoleMAX II scanner.
The MoleMAX II machine allows for very high magnification with special light frequencies to let the doctor look into the structure of the skin.
What are the benefits of a MoleMax mole scan?
MoleMax can store images of moles digitally and analyse changes over time. This allows doctors to get a better idea of how skin is changing and whether that change is accelerating.
What is Melanoma
Melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer. It develops in the skin’s pigment cells, known as melanocytes, and can spread via the blood and lymphatic system to distant organs like the lungs, liver, and brain.
How melanoma spreads
If left undetected, melanoma can spread to the deeper part of your skin (dermis). From there it can enter the lymphatic system or bloodstream and spread to other parts of the body such as the lungs, liver, brain, or bones. This spread is called metastasis.

Don’t risk getting skin cancer because a mole wasn’t diagnosed early enough. The earliest your diagnosis, the more effective the follow-up treatment. Moles detected early can be treated relatively easily using minimally invasive techniques.
