HOW TO DO A MOLE CHECK

If you have moles on your face or body, it’s important that you check them regularly (around once a month) and get to know how they look and feel. You can also ask a friend or relative to help you to check areas that you can’t see such as your back, neck and ears – or anywhere you can’t see yourself. You can also use a hand-held mirror if you don’t have anyone to help.

Don’t forget that if you notice any changes, make an appointment with your GP as soon as possible. Early detection of melanoma is extremely important.
