Skin Checks and Procedures Hampton
Did you realise that the skin is your largest organ? It’s a pretty big deal! Your skin plays a critical role when it comes to keeping you safe, so it’s always a good idea to look after it as well as it looks after you.
While your skin helps to protect you from the outside world, it can develop problems of its own. When you’re unsure if that’s a dangerous mole or a smudge from the kids’ breakfast (and we’ve all been there), a skin check can make all the difference.
Skin Checks at Newbay Medical Clinic
Skin checks are just like important for our overall well-being and health as bowel screenings and regular Pap tests. However, they’re often ignored or delayed. Newbay Medical Clinic offers skin checks to assess skin conditions, detect changes, and monitor for potential skin cancers. Finding a skin cancer lesion early can be the difference between an in-office 30-minute procedure and needing a large area resected by a plastic surgeon, so when you notice a change, don’t delay in getting it checked out!
Our Skin Procedures
At Newbay Medical Clinic, we provide skin checks and identify and remove lesions whenever possible. Our Bayside-based network of dermatologists, plastic surgeons and other specialists can help us with lesions, not within our practice.
We are happy to schedule a consultation for you to discuss your procedure.
We can also help with the surgical treatment of:
- Ingrown toenails
- Cysts
- Warts
- And other skin conditions
Answers to Your Skin Questions
The number of treatments required will vary according to your individual circumstances.
Cost identification is not possible for such individualised services. The costs of each procedure vary widely, depending on how long they take and what equipment is required. These should be discussed with the doctor during the appointment.
No matter your age, anyone who is concerned about their skin needs a skin examination. Your doctor will discuss your risks with you to determine how frequently you should have your skin checked. Over-50s are more likely to develop skin cancers so it is recommended that you have your skin checked at the very least once a calendar year.
While ultraviolet (UV) radiation is responsible for the majority of skin cancers, genes and other factors such as chemicals and pollutants can cause skin cancer to develop anywhere on the body.
