What is a MoleMap?

MoleMap is the world’s most advanced melanoma surveillance programme. MoleMap combines advanced technology with the skills of one of a panel of international dermatologists to diagnose melanoma at the earliest possible stage.

The process begins with a comprehensive full-body check-up to assess your skin, using digital Total Body Photography and dermoscopy imaging, which is then examined and diagnosed by a MoleMap dermatologist. Regular follow-up examinations then allow comparisons of dermoscopic images over time, thus enabling the detection of early stage melanoma that might have been missed during a routine, one-off appointment.

MoleMap’s diagnosis is more accurate than a regular clinical inspection because dermoscopic images can actually look down into the skin, focusing on the internal structure of moles and detecting what can’t be seen with the naked eye. This means there’s also no guesswork – we’ll detect important sub-surface features and changes in existing moles as well as the appearance of any new moles or lesions. MoleMap’s accuracy also reduces unnecessary surgery.
