Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I have skin cancer screening? Most people should have annual screenings, but those with high risk factors may need more frequent examinations. Lindsay will recommend a personalized screening schedule.

What should I expect during the screening? You'll undress to your underwear and Lindsay will systematically examine your entire body, including areas you can't easily see yourself, using magnification tools when needed.

Will I need a biopsy if something suspicious is found? Not all suspicious lesions require biopsy. Lindsay will determine if a biopsy is necessary based on the appearance and characteristics of any concerning areas.

How should I prepare for my screening? Remove nail polish, avoid self-tanning products, and come prepared to discuss any changes you've noticed in your skin or new symptoms.
