We offer comprehensive skin cancer and mole assessment plus a full range of treatments

With many thousands of new cases diagnosed annually, Skin Cancer, including malignant melanoma (malignant mole), is the most common form of cancer in Australia. Although Skin Cancer is extremely prevalent, there is good news! Skin Cancer is not usually lethal and has a high recovery rate, when diagnosed early and accurately.

The early changes of skin cancers are often subtle, with accurate diagnosis requiring years of experience examining skin lesions.

Dr Ron Louis, at Skin Doctor SA, has had decades of experience with Skin Cancers. This experience is augmented by the use of latest technologies to assist with assessments, monitoring, and treatments. There is a number of treatments we offer, including:

  • Dermoscopy
  • Digital, Computerised Imaging

Dr Ron Louis will assess your skin comprehensively for existing or potential skin cancers. If a lesion looks suspicious he will Dermatoscope the lesion for closer computer-enhanced examination. Should suspicious features be confirmed, he will either store the image for monitoring at a later stage, biopsy the lesion for histological laboratory assessment, or arrange for excision.
