06Is It Right for You

Who Should Get a Dermatoscopy Check

Many people can benefit from a close skin check. Here is who should consider one, and when to see a doctor sooner.

Good reasons to get checked

Anyone with a new mole or spot, or one that is changing
People with many moles, fair skin or a lot of sun exposure
Those with a family history of skin cancer
Anyone who wants a doctor’s opinion on a dark spot or growth

Needs prompt or different care

A sore that bleeds or does not heal, which needs prompt medical review
A fast-growing, painful or ulcerated lump, which may need a biopsy without delay
Wanting a mole removed without a proper check first
A widespread rash with no clear lesion, where dermoscopy may add little

What Dermatoscopy Can Show

What you notice	What the doctor looks for	Possible next step	Good to know
A mole that looks normal	Even pattern, colour and border	Reassurance and routine checks	Moles can still change later
A mole that is changing	Asymmetry, mixed colours, irregular structure	Closer follow-up, or a biopsy	Do not wait if it keeps changing
A new dark spot	Pigment pattern and type of lesion	Monitor, treat or biopsy	Many spots are harmless
A wart or skin growth	Typical surface and vessel pattern	Treatment or monitoring	Helps tell it from other conditions

What Decides the Cost

Your cost depends on

We give you a clear estimate before the examination. If a biopsy or treatment is advised, we explain that cost separately.

Dermatoscopy Myths vs Facts

“It is painful or uses radiation”

Dermatoscopy uses only light and a magnifier. It is painless and takes a few minutes.

“A normal check means I am safe for ever”

Moles can change with time, so repeat checks or photos may be advised, and any change should be shown to a doctor.

“Dermatoscopy alone confirms or removes cancer”

It helps the doctor decide. A suspicious lesion is confirmed by a biopsy and treated separately.

07FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about dermatoscopy in Sindhanur, what it shows and what comes next.

Vridhi Skin Clinic in Sindhanur offers dermatoscopy, also called dermoscopy, for moles, dark spots and skin growths, done by experienced dermatologists. Book on WhatsApp or call 91132 90156.

Dermatoscopy is a painless examination where a doctor uses a small handheld device with magnification and special light to look closely at the skin. It shows details of a mole or spot that the eye cannot see.

Yes. Dermatoscopy, dermoscopy and epiluminescence microscopy all mean the same skin examination technique.

No. It uses only light, with no needles, no cuts and no radiation. You simply feel the device lightly touching the skin, and it takes a few minutes.

It helps the doctor see patterns and colours inside a mole, which improves the check for changes that need attention, including early skin cancer. It makes the exam more accurate than looking with the eye alone.

It helps the doctor decide whether a lesion looks harmless or needs more tests. A suspicious lesion is usually confirmed by a skin biopsy, which dermatoscopy alone cannot replace.

See a doctor if a mole is new, changing in size, shape or colour, has an irregular border, itches, bleeds or does not heal. A routine check is also wise if you have many moles or a family history of skin cancer.

It stands for Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Colour variation, Diameter larger than about 6 mm, and Evolving or changing. Any of these signs is a reason to have the mole examined.

No. Moles can change with time. Your doctor may suggest a repeat check or photographs for comparison, depending on your skin and risk.

Yes. When used on the scalp it is called trichoscopy, and it helps the doctor see hair roots and shafts to find the cause of hair fall or scalp disease.

Come with clean skin and no makeup on the area. Bring old photos or reports, and note when you first saw the spot and how it has changed.

Cost depends on the number of areas or lesions checked and whether photographs or further tests are needed. We give you a clear estimate before the examination.
