We will take a history relevant to your skin.
We are happy to look at any area of skin you wish to show us, you may need to remove clothing. A female chaperone is available (Dr Holt is a male doctor), you are welcome to bring a family member or friend.
Confidential pictures may be taken, only with your consent for recording purposes and then if needed a more detailed look with the dermascope.
A gel is sometimes needed with the dermascope and sometimes we mark lesions with a special skin pen that washes in off in a day or two.
If there is a lesion or lesions that potentially may be of concern, then we can recommend you attend your GP for a referral to the NHS. Or if your happy to be referred to a private dermatologist or plastic surgeon of your choice we can do this for you direct.
As a GP based service, it is not our intention to remove skin lesions/moles that potentially could be of concern. We aim to remove only benign lesions, these lesions may be sent to the histology labs for analysis as this is the only 100% method of determining if a skin lesion is safe.
