Skin Cancer Prevention and Screening at mySkin Clinic

The global rise in skin cancer cases is alarming. At mySkin Clinic, you are in the hands of experienced dermatologists dedicated to your skin health. In Germany alone, approximately 200,000 people are diagnosed with non-melanoma skin cancer, and 36,000 with the more dangerous melanoma annually. These concerning numbers emphasize the importance of regular skin examinations, especially in Mallorca, where daily, prolonged unprotected UV exposure increases the risk.

Why Choose Skin Screening at mySkin:

Ideal Candidates for Skin Cancer Prevention:

Ideally, annual skin cancer prevention check-ups are recommended. For certain risk factors, such as changes in moles or a history of skin cancer, our dermatologists may suggest individualized check-ups every 3 to 6 months.

Automated Body Mapping at mySkin: Innovative Skin Cancer Prevention

Discover the most advanced technology for skin cancer prevention – Automated Body Mapping by FotoFinder Systems. Only a few clinics worldwide have access to this unique method, and we take pride in offering our patients the best current option for skin cancer prevention.

Procedure Overview:

1. Preparation: For the examination, please wear underwear (excluding boxer shorts). Avoid nail polish, makeup, and body lotion to maintain image quality. In a specially designed room at mySkin, undress to your underwear. A high-resolution camera takes overview shots from a hygienic distance of over 1.6 meters, allowing targeted examination of the few atypical lesions that require further clarification.

2. Image Analysis: The software uses artificial intelligence to identify suspicious skin changes. All identified spots are marked on a body map for precise localization.

3. Examination by the Dermatologist: After image analysis, the dermatologist reexamines suspicious spots with a close-up view, magnifying moles up to 240 times. Decisions are made on whether moles can be observed or if specific areas require further investigation. Additionally, we examine your skin for sun damage and precursors to skin cancer.

4. Follow-up: During your next skin check with Automated Body Mapping, artificial intelligence will detect even the smallest changes in your moles. The system also highlights newly appeared lesions for targeted control.

Recommendation:

Regular skin cancer prevention check-ups should occur at least once a year unless you are a high-risk patient with a history of skin cancer. In such cases, the dermatologist will recommend personalized, more frequent check-ups.

FAQs zu on Skin Cancer Prevention

What is done during skin screening?

Skin screening involves a comprehensive examination of the skin by our specialist in dermatology. With approximately 2 square meters of surface, the skin is the largest organ of the human body. Various benign and malignant skin changes can occur throughout life. The screening aims to detect early signs of skin cancer.

Why should I get screened?

Regular, annual screenings ensure that your skin is in optimal health. At mySkin Clinic, we use the latest methods to conduct a comprehensive skin cancer prevention check, identifying dermatological abnormalities at an early stage. In cases of previous illnesses or specific risk factors, we recommend more frequent check-ups.

How can I self-examine my moles?

It is essential to regularly self-examine your moles. Pay attention to changes using the ABCDE method:

A = Asymmetry: Uneven shape.
B = Border: Jagged or blurred edges.
C = Coloration: Different color components.
D = Diameter: Larger than 5 mm.
E = Evolution/Elevation: New development, change in the last three months, rapid growth, bleeding, itching, nodular surface. If you experience such symptoms, please consult a dermatologist.
