With many thousands of new cases diagnosed annually, Skin Cancer, including malignant melanoma, is the most common form of cancer in Australia. Although Skin Cancer is extremely prevalent, it 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.

The Doctors at Skin Doctor SA, have 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
• Photodynamic Therapy
• Radiowave Surgery

The Doctors or Melanographers will assess your skin comprehensively for existing or potential skin cancers. If a lesion looks suspicious they will image the lesion using a  Dermatoscope for closer computer-enhanced examination. Should suspicious features be identified, the image will be stored for monitoring at a later stage, biopsy the lesion for laboratory assessment, or arrange for excision.
