Skin Cancer Medicine
Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world with 2 in 3 Australian’s developing skin cancer before the age of 70. The good news is 95% of skin cancer can be successfully treated if detected early.
Our Focus: Early Detection
At Southern Skin Clinic, we prioritise early detection - combining medical expertise with cutting-edge skin visualisation technology. We use high-resolution dermatoscopes capable of up to 400x magnification, allowing us to investigate every skin lesion thoroughly and detect even the subtlest signs of change.
The Science: Whole-Skin Monitoring
Recent studies show that 71% of melanomas develop de novo, meaning they arise on previously healthy skin, not from existing moles.
To detect these early:
​
-
We combine automated total-body skin mapping with video dermatoscopy.
-
This “two-step method” is the most advanced monitoring system available, trusted by opinion leaders globally.
Did You Know?
More than two-thirds of all melanomas form on previously healthy skin, not pre-existing moles. This is why monitoring your entire skin, not just individual spots, is essential.
