SkinVision

SkinVision is a digital tool that allows users to take photos of skin spot(s) and keep track of changes over time. In some cases, a panel of dermatologists may review the photo to provide additional guidance. After analysing the skin spot, SkinVision’s dermatologist panel may recommend seeking additional medical assistance, or keep monitoring. Feel free to take multiple pictures to keep track of any changes. Remember that some skin spots can change in a relatively short period of time. If you notice any changes, please seek medical advice.

SkinVision is a digital tool that allows users to take photos of skin spots, keep track of changes over time, and help decide when to seek professional advice. It does not provide a medical diagnosis. In some cases, a panel of certified dermatologists may review the photo to provide additional guidance.

SkinVision helps to guide your decision making about your skin, not to replace your doctor. You can easily track every spot with SkinVision’s body map, so you can monitor changes over time and share results with your GP. Members should continue to see their dermatologist at least once a year for a skin cancer screening, and if at all unsure of a mole or lesion you locate with an app, don’t delay seeing a doctor in-person for a professional opinion.
