Total Body Photography (TBP) is available for patients at higher risk of skin cancer, as well as for those who would like detailed monitoring of their skin.

This technology helps clinicians detect skin changes as early as possible by capturing and comparing high-resolution images over time. You may be at higher risk if you are male, over 40, work outdoors, have experienced severe sunburn, or have a personal or family history of skin cancer.

Speak with your doctor at your next appointment to find out if this service is suitable for you.

If you've noticed changes in colour, size, shape, or surface of a mole or spot, it's recommended to seek an assessment.

These changes may warrant further investigation, depending on factors like your age, how long the mole has been present and how quickly it has changed.

Other changes to be aware of include new moles, bleeding, rough or scaly areas and spots that don’t heal.

For personalised advice, book an appointment.
