How often and who should check their moles?

🌞Regularly checking your moles is an important step in taking care of your skin health. Early changes can be a sign of serious problems, including melanoma, so prevention saves lives!

❓Who should definitely check their moles?

• If you have fair skin that burns easily in the sun
• If you have a large number of moles or a hereditary family history (have relatives with a history of skin cancer)
• If you are often in the sun or have had serious sunburns in the past
• If you notice moles of an unusual shape, color or size

🔍 How often should you check?

• We recommend examining your moles at least once a year.
• An urgent examination is necessary if you notice changes in the color, shape or size of a mole.
