What does a Dermatoscope actually do during a skin check? 🔍

This small but powerful tool makes a big difference when it comes to examining your skin.

Here’s how it helps 👇

A clearer look at your skin:
Magnifies and lights the skin to reveal details that the naked eye can’t see.

More accurate diagnosis:
Helps spot early signs of skin cancer, like melanoma, and distinguish harmless moles from suspicious ones.

Fewer unnecessary biopsies:
Reduces the need for surgery on moles that are completely benign.

Supports long-term monitoring:
Ideal for keeping track of changes over time, especially for those with multiple moles.

Not just for moles:
Also used to help diagnose rashes, fungal infections, scabies and other common skin issues.

A dermatoscope makes your skin check safer, quicker and more reassuring.

Book your skin check today and get peace of mind with expert care đź’™

8 tips for healthy bones 🦴

As we get older, our bones naturally become thinner and less dense but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do about it.

Being proactive now can help keep your bones strong for years to come and lower your risk of fractures, osteopenia and osteoporosis later on.

Here are 8 ways to support your bone health at any age:

âś… Eat a calcium-rich, balanced diet

âś… Get enough vitamin D (from sunlight, food or supplements)

âś… Do regular weight-bearing exercise (like walking or light weights)

✅ Keep moving — avoid long periods of sitting

âś… Avoid smoking and limit alcohol

âś… Manage hormone and thyroid health

âś… Look after your general health and nutrition

✅ Speak to a professional if you’re concerned about your risk

If you’d like advice or support with your bone health, our team of specialists is here to help.

• Blood in urine or semen
• Increased frequency of urination
• Weak urine flow or prolonged urination
• A sensation of incomplete bladder emptying or an inability to fully empty the bladder
• Difficulty starting urination
