Regular skin screening allows specialists to examine moles and skin lesions using dermoscopy to detect early signs of skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. Early detection improves treatment options and outcomes, especially for new or changing lesions. Those with fair skin, many moles, sun exposure, or a family history of skin cancer benefit most from private screening, offering reassurance quickly without a referral.

Skin cancer screening is a doctor-led examination designed to detect early signs of skin cancer, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. During a screening, your clinician checks your entire skin surface for suspicious moles, new lesions or changes in existing marks. Early detection significantly improves outcomes, which is why screening is recommended if you notice a changing mole, new lesion, or have risk factors such as fair skin, sun exposure, or a family history of skin cancer.

At Aventus Clinic, mole checks include a thorough visual examination supported by dermoscopy, a magnified, light-based tool that allows specialists to see beneath the skin’s surface. Each mole or lesion is assessed for features linked with early melanoma or pre-cancerous change. Any concerning area is documented, imaged and monitored or recommended for biopsy or removal if clinically necessary.

Your appointment begins with a brief medical history, followed by a full-body skin examination carried out by a GMC-registered specialist. The doctor inspects all moles, freckles and lesions, paying close attention to any that have changed in size, shape, colour or texture. If a mole appears suspicious, your clinician will explain the findings immediately and discuss whether removal, monitoring or further testing is the best next step.

Most screenings require no aftercare unless a mole is removed or biopsied on the same day. If a procedure is carried out, your doctor provides clear aftercare instructions, including how to care for the area, what to avoid, and when to return for review. You’ll also receive personalised skin health advice, including sun protection and self-monitoring guidance.

Screening

Skin Cancer Assessment and Treatment Options

At Aventus Clinic, our specialists provide thorough assessment and early detection of all common types of skin cancer, including melanoma and non-melanoma. Each consultation is tailored to your needs, with expert guidance on monitoring, biopsy, or treatment.

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)

BCC is the most common skin cancer in the UK, often appearing as a small, shiny bump, sore, or patch that may crust or bleed.

Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)

SCC usually presents as a firm, red nodule or scaly patch, commonly on sun-exposed areas like the face, neck, or hands.

Melanoma

Melanoma is less common but more serious, appearing as a dark, irregular mole or lesion.

Private skin cancer screening is suitable for:

  • Adults noticing new moles or changes to existing ones.
  • Those with a personal or family history of skin cancer.
  • Individuals with fair skin or high levels of sun exposure.
  • People with numerous moles who want regular monitoring.

If you observe any unusual changes in your skin, book a consultation at our London or Hertfordshire clinics.

If you are at higher risk, annual screening is recommended. For those at lower risk, it can be done every 1–2 years or when changes in moles or skin occur.

You cannot completely prevent skin cancer, but protecting skin from excessive sun exposure, using sunscreen, wearing protective clothing, and avoiding tanning beds reduces risk.

Watch for asymmetry, irregular borders, colour changes, increasing size, itching, bleeding, or sores that do not heal. These can be early signs of melanoma or non-melanoma skin cancers.

Routine examination is painless. Procedures such as biopsy or removal may cause minor discomfort, temporary redness, or swelling.

Screening can detect most visible skin cancers, including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. Internal or very early microscopic cancers may not be detected.

Contact your GP or a private dermatologist immediately. Early assessment is essential for any new or changing skin lesion.
