Skin check and mole mapping
Dra. Ana Claudia Shwetz performs skin checks and mole mapping in Curitiba, to identify suspicious lesions early and follow the ones that need attention over time.
What is a skin check?
It is an appointment dedicated to examining the whole skin, including the scalp, the nails, and areas you cannot see.
Dermoscopy uses a dermatoscope, a device that magnifies and illuminates the skin, to distinguish common moles from lesions that need follow-up or a biopsy.
When to come in
- A mole has changed color, size, or shape, or it itches or bleeds.
- You have fair skin, many moles, or a family history of skin cancer.
- You had significant sunburns in childhood, or a lot of sun exposure over the years.
- You have never had a full skin exam.
