Safe, Expert-Checked Screening For Moles & Blemishes
We are proud to now offer a professional mole and skin lesion screening service designed to help you monitor your skin quickly, safely and with expert support. Using advanced imaging technology, detailed images of your mole, blemish or skin lesion are taken in clinic by a specially trained practitioner. These images are then securely sent to a team of UK-based consultant dermatologists, led by Private Dermatologist Dr Toby Nelson, for professional assessment and analysis.
You will receive a detailed dermatologist report within approximately 24–72 hours, helping provide reassurance or guidance on any next steps if needed.
This is a quick, painless and proactive way to check changes in your skin without the long wait for GP appointments.
How does it work?
Book an in-clinic skin lesion & mole diagnostic screening appointment via the online booking system with Natalie our Skin Specialist.

Every assessment includes:
- High-quality clinical imaging

What Are Moles?
Moles, also known as melanocytic naevi or beauty marks, are common skin growths that can appear anywhere on the body. They develop when pigment-producing cells called melanocytes grow together in clusters. Most moles are completely harmless, however some can change over time. In rare cases, certain types of moles may develop into melanoma, a form of skin cancer.
This is why it is important to monitor any:
- New moles
- Changes in shape, size or colour
- Itching, bleeding or irritation
- Unusual or irregular-looking lesions
Types Of Moles
Common Nevi (Benign Moles)
These are very common skin growths found on most people. They are usually:
- Pink, tan or brown in colour
- Smooth with clear edges
- Smaller than 5mm wide
- Harmless
Dysplastic Nevi (Atypical Moles)
These moles can appear:
- Larger than common moles
- Uneven in shape
- With less regular borders
- With mixed colours throughout
Having dysplastic nevi may increase the risk of developing melanoma, particularly if multiple atypical moles are present.
Treatment Pricing
