At Vidler Avenue Skin Cancer Centre, we offer thorough mole checks to help detect early signs of skin cancer and other concerns.

By monitoring these changes, we can identify potential concerns early and provide timely advice on the best course of action.
From our convenient location in Woy Woy, we also take care of residents of Gosford, Ettalong and Umina Beach. Vidler Avenue Skin Cancer Centre is easily accessible via public transport. Our mole check service is just one part of our comprehensive approach to skin health. We also provide skin checks, skin cancer detection, precautionary advice and treatments, ensuring all concerns regarding your skin health are carefully assessed and managed.

One of the things you’ll need to look at during self-examinations is moles. To find out if a mole is abnormal, look for 5 important signs using the acronym ABCDE:
A. for asymmetry or when one half of a birthmark or mole is significantly different than the other.
B. for border, where the mole’s edges are blurred, notched, ragged or irregular.
C. for colour or uneven shades, which include blue, white, red, pink, black or brown.
D. for diameter, particularly if the mole is bigger than 6mm.
E. for evolving or changing colour, shape or size.
Unsure if your mole is abnormal? Come visit our centre and we’ll perform skin checks for early detection and treatment of possible skin cancers like Melanoma.
During a mole check at Vidler Avenue Skin Cancer Centre, our team will carefully examine your skin, paying close attention to any moles or spots that may have changed in size, shape or colour.
Using specialised tools, we assess the moles for any signs of concern, such as irregular borders, uneven colours or unusual growth. The check is quick and non-invasive, and we ensure you feel comfortable throughout the process.
If any moles require further attention, we’ll discuss the next steps with you, which may include monitoring or treatment. Early detection is key to maintaining healthy skin.
