Follow-Up Patients

This page is for people who have had a previous MoleMap and therefore have an existing baseline record of their skin. Repeating the MoleMap procedure on a regular basis (e.g. yearly) enables our expert dermatologists to observe structural changes in all of your moles over a period of time. This innovative technique pioneered by MoleMap has been clinically proven to help identify melanoma earlier than conventional methods. Afterall, early detection of melanoma does save lives.

What's involved in a follow-up appointment:

During your follow-up appointment you will be cared for by a Melanographer who is trained in the field of skin cancer. She will carry out the following:

• Head-to-toe skin examination against the baseline record of your skin, to check for the emergence of new moles
• Digital Dermoscopic and Clinical Images of any new moles + accompanying information (e.g. patient concern)

• Repeat Digital Dermoscopic (Subsurface) and Clinical Images of all previously imaged moles

• All imaged lesions imaged are then diagnosed by one of an international panel of expert dermatologists (includes serial monitoring - comparing your most recent images with those from your previous MoleMap to identify any subtle changes that could indicate early skin cancer)

• A comprehensive report is sent to you and your designated doctor
• Access to the MoleSnap service (dermatologist opinion of up to 3 lesions of concern) between regular MoleMap exams

• Patient education on sun protection and self examination, including a self-monitor kit, and a CD copy of your images (upon request)
