Skin Checks in Aspley | Full Body Skin Examination & Early Detection

Regular skin checks are one of the most important steps in preventing and detecting skin cancer early. In Australia, where sun exposure is high year-round, routine skin examinations are essential for maintaining healthy skin and identifying potential concerns before they become serious. At our GP clinic in Aspley, we provide comprehensive skin check services using advanced diagnostic tools and a patient-focused approach.

Skin cancer often develops without pain or obvious symptoms in its early stages. Many people are unaware of changes occurring in their skin until the condition progresses. This is why professional skin checks play a critical role in early detection, allowing for timely treatment and better outcomes.

Our experienced GPs conduct thorough full-body skin examinations and provide personalised advice based on your skin type, lifestyle, and risk factors.

What is a Skin Check?

A skin check is a detailed examination of your skin performed by a qualified GP to identify any signs of abnormality or early skin cancer.

During a skin check, your GP will:

  • Examine your entire skin surface
  • Identify suspicious moles or lesions
  • Use a dermatoscope for detailed analysis
  • Document findings for future comparison

Skin checks are quick, painless, and can be life-saving.

Symptoms Patients May Notice
  • New moles or unusual skin growths
  • Changes in size, shape, or colour of moles
  • Irregular or asymmetrical moles
  • Non-healing sores or lesions
  • Red, scaly, or crusted patches
  • Itching, bleeding, or tenderness

ABCDE Rule:

  • A – Asymmetry
  • B – Border irregularity
  • C – Colour variation
  • D – Diameter larger than 6mm
  • E – Evolving changes

Any of these signs should be evaluated by a GP.

  • No previous professional skin check
  • More than 12 months since last check
  • Visible changes in skin or moles

Regular checks are recommended even without symptoms.
