Full Body Skin Checks and Single Lesion Spot Checks
- Full Body Skin Checks: all your moles, skin lesions and sun-damaged areas on your body are examined using a Dermatoscope – a device with polarized and non-polarized light and a magnifying lens that allows viewing of skin structures invisible to the naked eye. If a lesion looks suspicious then it is photographed using the MoleMate Skin imaging System so we can show you why it looks suspicious.
- Single Lesion Spot Checks: this normally involves the patient showing us the lesion they are concerned about because it may have changed or is new and we examine it with the Dermatoscope and photograph it using the MoleMate Skin imaging System. These are generally quick appointments (5-10mins) which allow us to see a lot of patients within a short time frame, usually one week.

Surgical Procedures
Please note: Our doctors are non-participating members of VHI, Irish Life and Laya. This simply means that you can pay for the procedure upfront to SkinCheck, you are issued with a receipt that you submit to your insurance company which will enable you to claim some of the money back. All policies are different so please check before you book a procedure.
Alternatively, we are happy to refer you onwards to a public or private hospital for the procedure depending on where you are covered.
We are unable to perform procedures at the same time as the initial consultation due to time constraints.
Procedures are only carried out in the Bayside Clinic, usually on a Monday, Tuesday or Thursday afternoon
