When Should You See a Dermatologist for a Skin Cancer Screening?
You could benefit from cancer screening in any of the following situations:
- You notice a new mole or an existing one changing in shape, color, texture, or size.
- You spend a lot of time in the sun, often without sunscreen or protective clothing
- Your close relatives have been diagnosed with skin cancer
- You have skin that is fair or burns easily
- You have blonde or red hair and/or green or blue eyes
- You frequently use tanning beds
- You have a history of sunburns
At Pop Dermatology, we can perform full-body screenings to detect precancerous lesions and skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, and Merkel cell carcinoma.
A member of our team will be in touch shortly to confirm your contact details or address questions you may have.
The Importance of Catching Skin Cancer Early
Did you know that skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States? While it is especially prevalent, it is readily treatable, especially when detected early. For example, the survival rate for melanoma is 94% when it is identified and treated before spreading.
Should you turn to us for a skin cancer screening in Voorhees, you can significantly increase the chances of catching skin cancer in its earliest stages. This not only improves the likelihood of successful treatment but can also save you from more invasive or aggressive interventions.
If Our Doctor Finds Something Concerning, What Happens?
Should our doctor find any suspicious moles or lesions during your screening, she may recommend a biopsy to determine whether they are cancerous. This involves taking a small sample of the tissue and examining it under a microscope.
Additionally, she may use dermoscopy during your screening, a technique that uses a specialized tool to magnify the skin and detect abnormalities that may not be visible to the naked eye.
If a biopsy or dermoscopy identifies skin cancer, our doctor will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan. This may include surgical removal of the cancerous tissue, topical medications, or other measures depending on the type and severity of the cancer.
At times, a screening may reveal precancerous lesions or actinic keratosis. In these cases, cancer prevention measures may be advantageous, from cryotherapy and photodynamic therapy to topical treatments.
