Tis the Season of the beard.



Even though your face is covered by those lush locks you have been tending to like a prize-winning garden landscape all year round, doesn't mean that you are immune from the harsh Aussie Sun. In fact it can mean you are more likely to neglect the real prize that's underneath, your skin!


Blokes are two times more likely to die from skin cancer in Australia than women. Thankfully, over 98% of skin cancers can be successfully treated if they’re found early. 


The 1st of June until the 31st of August is not only the ideal time to let your facial follicles flourish, it’s also the best time of year to get your skin checked. Right after summer.


Less sun means moles are easier to spot, treatment is generally more successful, and appointments are (hopefully) a lot easier to make.


Whether you're seeking an individual mole assessment or a comprehensive full-body skin cancer check, we can look after you at GIGP.


If any suspicious moles are identified, a small biopsy can be conducted and sent for thorough testing.

 

For moles that warrant further examination, we may refer you to a dermatologist, ensuring you receive specialized care when necessary.

Your skin's health is a top priority, and proactive measures are crucial. Don't take chances. Book an appointment online or call us on 03 9828 7505 schedule your skin check today.
