SKIN CANCER FAQS
Your questions answered
How much does a skin cancer check cost at Solvera, and is it covered by Medicare?
A standard weekday full skin check at Solvera costs $150, with a Medicare rebate available for eligible consultations. Fees vary for urgent spot checks, 3D Total Body Photography, procedures and some appointment types. You can view our current fees and expected out-of-pocket costs on our Fees page.
What happens during a full body skin cancer check?
A full body skin check at Solvera is performed by an experienced doctor with advanced training in skin cancer medicine. Your doctor carefully examines your skin and uses dermoscopy to assess moles, spots or lesions more closely where needed. Any findings are discussed with you, along with recommendations for monitoring, further investigation or treatment.
Who should have a skin cancer check and how often?
How often you should have a skin cancer check depends on your individual risk. Factors can include your skin type, number of moles, history of sun exposure or sunburn, family history and any previous skin cancers. Your doctor can assess your risk and recommend a skin check and follow-up schedule appropriate for you.
What are the warning signs of skin cancer?
Warning signs can include a new, changing or unusual spot, or a sore that does not heal. Changes in size, shape, colour or texture, or symptoms such as bleeding, itching or tenderness, may also need assessment. If you notice a spot that concerns you, it is important to have it checked by a doctor.
What is the difference between a skin check and 3D mole mapping?
A skin check involves a doctor examining your skin and assessing individual moles, spots and lesions using clinical examination and dermoscopy. 3D mole mapping uses Total Body Photography to create a detailed visual record of your skin, helping doctors monitor changes over time. At Solvera, 3D imaging supports your doctor's assessment rather than replacing it.
What happens if a suspicious spot is found during my skin check?
If your doctor identifies a spot that requires further assessment, they will explain what they have found and recommend the most appropriate next step. Depending on the lesion, this may include monitoring, additional imaging such as Confocal Microscopy, a biopsy or treatment. Solvera can provide ongoing care from assessment through diagnosis, treatment and follow-up.
Do you remove skin tags and moles?
Yes. Our doctors remove skin tags and benign moles that are bothersome, catch on clothing or jewellery, or that you’d simply prefer removed. Every mole is assessed by a doctor first, and removed tissue can be sent for pathology if needed. Book a consult online or call us on 02 8806 2207.
