According to the recommendations of dermatologists, each of us, both children and adults, should undergo a consultation with a dermatologist with dermatoscopy once every 1-2 years.
Dermatoscopy is an examination of moles and neoplasms with a special device, which helps to identify their origin at an early stage and start timely treatment or removal.
As a rule, children are diagnosed with moles in case of complaints or in the presence of a large number of them.
When should a dermatoscopy be done?
In the presence of a large number of birthmarks
If the mole has an uneven shape, it grows quickly and changes color
When a birthmark starts to bleed
If you have noticed a new growth on the skin in yourself or your child, and it causes you doubts or questions
Scheduled, once a year for children and adults.
