Skin Checks

At Swan Valley Medical and Wellness Center, we offer thorough and confidential skin checks to help detect skin cancer and other skin-related conditions early — when treatment is most effective. Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, which makes regular skin screenings an important part of your long-term health care.

Our experienced GPs provide full-body examinations, identify suspicious moles or lesions, and guide you through the next steps if treatment or referral is required.

✅ What We Check For:

• Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)

• Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)

• Melanoma

• Atypical moles and skin growths

• Sun damage and precancerous changes

• Rashes, dermatitis, and other skin conditions

🧑‍⚕️ What to Expect During Your Skin Check:

• A comprehensive review of your skin from head to toe

• Use of dermatoscopic tools for detailed mole analysis

• Identification of unusual or changing moles, freckles, or spots

• Discussion of any concerns or skin changes you’ve noticed

• Biopsy, cryotherapy, or referral if necessary

We recommend wearing loose clothing and minimal makeup for your appointment to allow for a complete examination.
