What Is a Skin Cancer Check?

A skin cancer check is a detailed examination performed by a trained professional to identify any abnormal skin lesions or changes that may indicate skin cancer.

This process involves a full-body assessment, including the use of dermatoscopy, which allows for the magnified evaluation of skin components not visible to the naked eye. Early detection through regular skin checks is vital, as it enables prompt treatment, reducing the risk of cancer progression and the need for more invasive procedures.

At Queensland Skin and Laser, we emphasise the importance of these checks as a proactive measure in maintaining skin health.

What Areas Can Be Treated?

Our clinic is equipped to assess and treat various areas of the body where skin cancer commonly develops. These include:

  • Face and Neck: Due to frequent sun exposure, these areas are particularly susceptible to skin cancer.
  • Arms and Hands: Often exposed to UV radiation, making them common sites for skin lesions.
  • Legs and Feet: Especially in individuals who spend significant time outdoors.
  • Torso: Including the back and chest, areas that may be overlooked during self-examinations.

Our comprehensive approach ensures that no area is neglected during skin cancer screenings. Book a bulk bill skin check today!

Engaging in regular skin cancer checks offers numerous advantages:

  • Early Detection: Identifying skin cancer at an initial stage significantly increases the effectiveness of treatment and can prevent the disease from advancing.
  • Minimally Invasive Treatment: Early-stage cancers often require less aggressive treatments, reducing recovery time and potential complications.
  • Peace of Mind: Regular examinations provide reassurance and enable you to stay informed about your skin health.
  • Preventive Education: Our team offers guidance on sun protection and skin care practices to help reduce future risks.

By prioritising regular skin checks, you take a proactive step towards safeguarding your overall health. Don’t delay, book now.

Am I a Good Candidate for BULK BILL Skin Cancer Check Brisbane?

While everyone can benefit from regular skin examinations, certain individuals may have a higher risk and should consider more frequent checks:

  • Individuals with Fair Skin: Lighter skin tones have less melanin, offering less natural protection against UV radiation.
  • History of Sunburns: Past severe sunburns, especially during childhood, can increase the risk of developing skin cancer later in life.
  • Family History: A familial predisposition to skin cancer necessitates vigilant monitoring.
  • Outdoor Workers or Enthusiasts: Prolonged UV exposure due to occupational or recreational activities elevates risk.
  • Individuals with Multiple Moles: A higher number of moles can indicate an increased risk, particularly if they are atypical.

If any of these factors apply to you, scheduling a regular bulk bill skin cancer check is advisable.

How Do BULK BILL Skin Cancer Checks & Treatments Work?

At our Brisbane cosmetic clinic, we offer a range of treatment options tailored to the type and stage of skin cancer diagnosed:

  • Surgical Excision: The primary method for removing cancerous lesions, involving the surgical removal of the tumour along with a margin of healthy tissue to ensure complete excision.
  • Cryotherapy: Utilising liquid nitrogen to freeze and destroy abnormal cells, suitable for certain precancerous conditions and small skin cancers.
  • Topical Medications: Application of prescription creams that stimulate the immune system to attack cancerous cells, used for specific superficial skin cancers.
  • Photodynamic Therapy (PDT): Combines a photosensitising agent with light exposure to destroy cancerous cells, effective for certain types of skin cancer and precancerous lesions.

Our experienced team will discuss the most appropriate treatment plan based on your individual diagnosis and health considerations.

If your doctor recommends treatment, fees are discussed upfront, with Medicare rebates available to offset costs.
