What Is Map My Mole?
Mole mapping is a non-invasive screening process that involves taking high-resolution images of moles, skin lesions, and other pigmentation marks on the face or body. These images are then reviewed by remote qualified dermatologists, who assess whether the mole requires further attention, such as in-person consultation or a biopsy.
Unlike a quick glance during a routine check-up, mole mapping allows for detailed digital documentation of your skin, enabling dermatologists to spot subtle changes over time, an essential tool in the early detection of skin cancer, including melanoma.
Why Mole Mapping Matters
Skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in the UK, and when detected early, it’s also one of the most treatable. However, not all moles are problematic, and the challenge lies in distinguishing harmless pigmentation from something potentially dangerous. This is where mole mapping comes in, it bridges the gap between cosmetic awareness and medical vigilance.
With the help of digital imaging and remote dermatological expertise, Map My Mole provides a more accessible, cost-effective solution for clients who may not have immediate access to specialist dermatology services or who simply want reassurance without waiting for a GP referral.
How the Service Works
Our mole mapping service is straightforward, discreet, and reassuringly professional:
- Image Capture: During your appointment at Eden Skin Clinic, our trained practitioners will take high-quality dermoscopic images of any moles or skin lesions you wish to have assessed. This process is quick and completely painless.
- Remote Dermatology Review: The images are securely sent to a specialist dermatologist for analysis. These professionals are highly experienced in identifying the signs of skin cancer and other dermatological conditions.
- Expert Feedback: Within a short timeframe, you will receive a detailed report. This will include an expert opinion on whether the mole appears benign or whether further investigation is recommended.
- Next Steps: If necessary, we will advise you on how to proceed, whether that’s visiting your GP, seeking a referral to a dermatologist, or simply keeping an eye on the mole with periodic re-checks.
This service gives you expert insight without the stress, time, or cost of seeing a private dermatologist in person, unless it becomes necessary.
Who Should Consider Mole Mapping?
Anyone can benefit from mole mapping, but it is especially recommended for:
1.Individuals with numerous moles or freckles
2.Those with a personal or family history of skin cancer
3.People who have noticed recent changes in their moles (size, shape, colour)
4.Individuals with fair skin who burn easily
5.Clients seeking reassurance without needing to go through the NHS route

My second time at Eden Wimbledon, but I hadn’t been for quite a while. The Wimbledon clinic is more spacious now, light and bright. Really positive experience. The therapist who did my treatment was lovely, and made me feel comfortable throughout the procedure. I have booked in for my next session.

It was great to meet Adele for a skin test patch. Her expertise was evident from her explanation of my treatment for DPN which was informative and thorough which gave me confidence in moving forward with the full treatment. Excellent!

Appointment was on time. All of my questions were answered and the Hand Therapist listened well. Additional exercises were given to me to further my range of motion and a return appointment was left open if needed. Excellent care.

It was the 5 star rating Eden Skin Clinic already had which attracted me to book a visit as I needed treatment for skin tags. The staff are welcoming and professional and I felt at ease throughout the treatment process. I don’t hesitate to 100% recommend this Clinic.

I had a 30 minute consultation with Adele with a view to possible advanced electrolysis sessions for my skin condition. My appointment was easy to book & an email confirmation received. On arrival I was seen on time. Adele put me immediately at ease & was able to answer all my questions about the procedure and what to expect. She examined me with care and then fully explained the equipment she would be using. She then demonstrated on me how it works which I found very useful. Adele also advised about aftercare and the costs involved. Overall an excellent experience!
