Moles

Diagnosis & Testing

Screening for Moles is a Matter of a Thorough Physical Examination

Moles can easily be seen during a physical examination, and it is a good idea to have a body scan for atypical moles every 3 years up to age 40, and annually after that.

A body scan involves the examination of your skin from head to toe, including scalp, palms, the soles of the feet and the skin between the buttocks.
