Each mole or lesion is examined with a dermoscope and photographed in detail. Up to 3 lesions per appointment.
Consultant dermatologist review
Your images and history are sent to a consultant dermatologist, who reviews them and flags anything that needs a closer look.
Your report within 48 hours
You’ll get a report back within 48 hours, with advice on follow-up and onward referral if it’s needed.
Seen by a specialistWho it’s for
Should you book a mole check?
Early detection matters. If a mole has changed, or you simply want reassurance, a specialist review is a sensible step.
A mole that’s changed
A change in size, shape, colour or how it feels.
A new mole or lesion
Something new that you’d like checked.
Lots of moles
More moles means more to keep an eye on.
Skin cancer history
A personal or family history of skin cancer.
High sun exposure
Lots of time outdoors, or a history of sunburn.
Peace of mind
You’d simply like a specialist to take a look.
What to expect
Before, during and after
Most moles we photograph aren’t suspicious. They just have unusual features. Photographing them avoids removing harmless moles while flagging the ones that need a closer look.
Preparing
Avoid lotions on the area beforehand and wear loose clothing, so the moles are easy to reach.
30 minutes
Your appointment takes about 30 minutes, for up to 3 lesions.
Within 48 hours
A consultant dermatologist reviews your images and reports back within 48 hours.
Ongoing checks
If you have a history of skin cancer or many moles, checks every 3 to 6 months may be advised. Otherwise, a yearly check plus monthly self-checks at home.

Who reviews my moles?
Anna takes your history and detailed images, which are sent through the MapMyMole service to a consultant dermatologist for review. You’ll get a report within 48 hours.
How many moles can be checked?
Up to 3 moles or lesions per appointment.
What happens if something looks concerning?
The dermatologist’s report will say what’s recommended, including onward referral to a specialist if it’s needed.
Why photograph moles instead of removing them?
Most moles we photograph aren’t suspicious for melanoma. They just have unusual features. Photographing them avoids removing harmless moles, while flagging any that need closer evaluation.
How often should I have my moles checked?
If you have a history of skin cancer or many moles, checks every 3 to 6 months may be advised. If you’re lower risk, a yearly check plus monthly self-checks at home is usually enough.
How should I prepare?
Avoid lotions on the area beforehand and wear loose clothing, so the moles are easy to examine.
