☀️ When was your last skin check?
Your skin is constantly changing, and not all skin cancers are obvious to the naked eye.

🔎 Why have a 12-monthly skin check?

✨ Early detection can save lives.

✨ Skin cancers can develop in areas you can't easily see.

✨ Not all skin cancers look like a suspicious mole.

✨ Regular checks help identify new or changing lesions.

✨ A baseline skin assessment allows us to monitor changes over time.

At MK Skin & Wound, our comprehensive full-body skin checks include a head-to-toe assessment using dermoscopy, including your scalp, ears, fingers, toes and other easily missed areas.

💛 Your skin deserves more than a quick glance.

Annual skin checks may be appropriate for some people, while others require more frequent monitoring depending on their individual risk.

Lymphoedema can affect the arms, legs and other areas of the body, causing swelling, heaviness, discomfort, tightness and changes to the skin.

A lymphoedema practitioner can help with:

- Comprehensive assessments
Identifying swelling, assessing circulation, taking limb measurements and evaluating skin changes.

- Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
A specialised, gentle massage technique designed to encourage lymphatic fluid movement.

- Compression therapy
Measuring and fitting compression garments and applying specialised bandaging to help manage swelling.

- Lipoedema management
Supporting people experiencing painful, disproportionate fatty tissue accumulation, often affecting the legs.

- Pneumatic compression therapy
Using specialised compression pumps where clinically appropriate.

- Skin care and prevention
Reducing the risk of skin breakdown, infections and complications.

- Education and ongoing management
Providing personalised strategies involving movement, exercise, compression and self-care.

Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) is a common type of skin cancer that develops in the squamous cells of the outer layers of the skin. It is most often linked to cumulative UV exposure and commonly appears on sun-exposed areas.

SCC can present in different ways, including a scaly or crusted patch, firm raised lump, non-healing sore, thickened area or tender lesion.

Unlike some slower-growing skin cancers, SCC has the potential to grow deeper and spread, making early detection and treatment important.

CRYOPEN — OUR TARGETED LESION REMOVAL

Remove those pesky skin lesions that catch on clothing, bothers you cosmetically or you’re simply ready to get rid of?

CryoPen uses precision cryotherapy to target and freeze suitable benign skin lesions with minimal impact on the surrounding healthy skin.

CryoPen may be suitable for: • Skin tags
• Cherry angiomas
• Seborrhoeic keratoses
• Warts
• Other suitable benign lesions

Before treatment, we assess the lesion to ensure it is appropriate for CryoPen. Suspicious or uncertain lesions are not treated and may require further assessment or referral.

A baseline skin check gives you a clear starting point for what is normal for your skin. During the check, existing moles and lesions can be assessed and, where appropriate, photographed so they can be compared at future appointments.

This is important because some skin cancers may first show themselves through change over time — such as changes in size, shape, colour or appearance — rather than being obviously concerning at a single appointment.

For people with lots of moles, significant sun exposure, fair skin, a history of sunburn or a personal/family history of skin cancer, having that baseline can be particularly valuable.

A lymphoedema practitioner is a health professional with additional training in assessing and managing lymphoedema and lymphatic swelling.

Lymphoedema occurs when the lymphatic system cannot adequately drain fluid from the tissues, causing persistent swelling. It can occur after surgery or cancer treatment, following damage to the lymphatic system, or because of an underlying lymphatic condition.

A lymphoedema practitioner may:
-Assess swelling, skin changes, limb shape and symptoms such as heaviness, aching or tightness.
-Take detailed limb measurements and monitor changes over time.
-Assess for signs that may suggest other causes of swelling and determine when further medical investigation or referral is needed.
-Provide manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) where appropriate.
-Use and prescribe compression therapy, including compression garments and bandaging.
-Provide education about skin care, exercise, movement and cellulitis prevention.
-Help patients access appropriate compression garments and other lymphoedema-management equipment.
-Develop an individualised long-term management plan to help control swelling and maintain mobility and quality of life.

Importantly, a lymphoedema practitioner doesn't simply “massage fluid away.” The role involves clinical assessment, identifying contributing factors and creating an ongoing management strategy for the lymphatic system.

When was the last time you had your whole skin checked, not just the mole you were worried about?

At MK Skin & Wound, our skin checks are designed to be thorough. Your appointment allows time to assess your skin from head to toe, including areas that are easily missed such as the scalp and between the fingers and toes. Dermoscopy is used to assess lesions more closely, with clinical photography taken where appropriate to help monitor changes over time.

You don't need to wait until something looks concerning to prioritise your skin health.
