What is a Full Body Skin Check?

A Full Body Skin Check is a detailed examination of your skin from head to toe, identifying any changes, abnormalities, or areas of concern. This assessment is beneficial for anyone wanting to maintain skin health, prevent skin cancer and stay informed about any skin changes over time.

During the check, Dr Stephen or Nurse Practitioner Kelly, will assess:

✔ Moles, freckles, and skin lesions
✔ Unusual pigmentation or skin irregularities
✔ Sun damage and other skin concerns

Regular skin checks allow for early detection of changes, ensuring you can take proactive steps in maintaining healthy skin.
