Here at BSFMC, we prioritise your skin health and offer comprehensive skin check services to ensure the early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of skin conditions.
Our skin check services encompass the following key aspects:
Skin Cancer Screening: Skin cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, but when detected early, it is highly treatable. Our general practitioners are trained to perform thorough skin examinations to identify any suspicious moles, lesions, or other abnormalities that may indicate skin cancer. By using a combination of visual examination and dermatoscopic techniques, we aim to detect potential skin cancer at its earliest stages.
Mole Mapping and Surveillance: For patients with numerous moles or a personal or family history of skin cancer, our clinic offers mole mapping and surveillance services. This involves capturing detailed images of your moles to create a baseline record. Subsequent screenings enable us to monitor any changes in size, shape, or colour over time, facilitating the early detection of potential abnormalities.
Dermatological Consultations: Our general practitioners have a solid foundation in dermatology and can provide expert consultations for a wide range of skin conditions. Whether you have concerns about acne, eczema, psoriasis, or other dermatological issues, we are here to assess, diagnose, and offer appropriate treatment plans to address your specific needs.
Skin Biopsies: In cases where further investigation is required, our skilled doctors can perform skin biopsies. This procedure involves the removal of a small sample of tissue from a suspicious area for laboratory analysis. Skin biopsies help determine the nature of a skin condition, such as skin cancer or other dermatological disorders, and guide the most suitable treatment approach.
Patient Education and Prevention: Our team believes in the power of education and prevention when it comes to maintaining healthy skin. We provide valuable information on sun protection, skin care routines, and self-examination techniques to empower you with the knowledge and tools to safeguard your skin’s well-being.
