WHAT IS
MEDICAL DERM SPOT CHECK?

Medical dermatology spot checks refer to a targeted examination performed by a dermatologist to identify and evaluate specific areas of concern on the skin. During a spot check, your provider carefully examines moles, lesions, or other abnormalities with a scope to determine if further investigation or treatment is necessary. This process is particularly important for early detection of skin cancer or other potentially serious conditions. Spot checks allow dermatologists to closely monitor any changes in the skin and provide timely interventions to ensure optimal skin health.

Why Do Spot Checks?

Spot checks, particularly in the context of medical dermatology, are conducted for several reasons:

  • Spot checks play a crucial role in identifying potential signs of skin cancer at an early stage.

  • Spot checks allow dermatologists to closely monitor any changes in the skin, including the appearance of new moles or alterations in existing ones.

  • By conducting spot checks, dermatologists can provide timely interventions when necessary.

  • Spot checks provide a personalized assessment of an individual's skin health

  • Spot checks offer peace of mind to individuals who may be concerned about specific areas on their skin.

WHAT SHOULD I LOOK FOR DURING A SPOT CHECK?

During a spot check, it is important to look for certain characteristics or changes in your skin that may warrant further attention. Here are some things you should look for:

  • Pay attention to the appearance of new moles or any changes in existing moles.

  • Check for moles or spots with uneven or jagged edges. Smooth and well-defined borders are generally considered normal.

  • Take note of any moles or spots that have uneven coloration or multiple colors within them.

  • Assess whether your moles or spots are symmetrical.

  • Alongside moles, pay attention to any unusual marks or spots on your skin. This includes lesions, rashes, bumps, or patches that have appeared or changed in appearance.

SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION

WITH RIVIER AESTHETICS

Unfortunately, we do not accept insurance. Our services include an evaluation and potential treatment. If necessary, Ananda may recommend a same-day procedure such as a "zap" or biopsy. In the event that a biopsy is required and the lesion appears suspicious, the cost of the biopsy will be covered within the overall price. Alternatively, if further examination is needed, Ananda may refer you to a dermatologist.

Please keep in my mind RIVIER does not accept insurance, this is a cash based procedure.
