Many of us have moles - small, often harmless marks on the skin that may change slowly over time. But sometimes, a new mole or changes in an existing one can cause worry. While most changes are harmless, it’s important to know when to get a professional opinion, as early detection is key in spotting skin cancer.

Why mole checking matters
Skin cancer is one of the most common cancers in the UK. Caught early, it is highly treatable but delays in diagnosis can make treatment more complicated. This is why doctors recommend keeping an eye on your moles and seeking advice if you notice anything unusual.
यह ABCDE rule is often used to help spot suspicious changes:
A - Asymmetry: one half of the mole doesn’t match the other.
B - Border: edges look irregular or blurred.
C - Colour: uneven colouring, with different shades of brown, black, or red.
D - Diameter: larger than 6 mm across.
E - Evolving: any noticeable change in size, shape or colour.
If you notice one or more of these signs, it’s worth getting your mole checked by a medical professional.
A modern, convenient way to get checked
सामग्री पर वापस जाएंTraditionally, mole checking means booking an appointment with your GP and potentially waiting for a referral to a specialist. But today, new digital services mean you can get peace of mind more quickly.
यह Evergreen mole-checking service allows you to submit photos of a mole from the comfort of your own home, along with a short questionnaire. A dermatologist then reviews your submission and provides feedback - usually within one working day.
This approach doesn’t replace face-to-face care where it’s needed, but it can provide fast reassurance or an early warning if further checks are required.
