The Skin Check Guide: What To Look For (and When to Schedule an Appointment)
May 11, 2026
Early detection is one of the most important factors in successfully treating skin cancer. Knowing what to look for during a skin check can help you catch potential concerns early—when they’re most treatable.
If you missed it, review the ABCDEs of melanoma, a simple guide dermatologists use to evaluate moles for warning signs like asymmetry, irregular borders, uneven color, large diameter, and evolution.
This guide builds on that foundation with a practical approach to performing a skin self-exam at home.
What to Look for During a Skin Check
When performing a monthly skin check, start with the ABCDEs—but don’t stop there. Dermatologists also recommend watching for:
- The “Ugly Duckling” mole: A spot that looks different from the rest
- New growths or spots: Especially ones that appear suddenly
- Changes in sensation: Itching, tenderness, or pain
- Non-healing spots: Anything that bleeds, scabs, or won’t heal
- Anything unusual: If something feels “off,” trust your instincts
You don’t need to diagnose a condition yourself—you just need to notice changes.
How to Do a Skin Self-Exam at Home
Performing a full-body skin exam once a month can help you become familiar with your skin and spot changes early.
Here’s how to check your skin effectively:
- Use a full-length mirror and a hand mirror
- Examine your entire body, including:
- Scalp (use a comb or ask for help)
- Back and buttocks
- Underarms
- Between fingers and toes
- Soles of your feet
For a step-by-step visual guide, the Skin Cancer Foundation self-exam resource is a helpful reference.
The more familiar you are with your skin, the easier it is to notice subtle changes over time.
When to See a Dermatologist
It’s important to schedule a professional skin check if you notice any of the following:
- A mole that stands out as an “ugly duckling”
- Any spot that meets the ABCDE criteria
- A lesion that bleeds, changes, or doesn’t heal
- A new or evolving growth
If you’re unsure, it’s always better to have it evaluated. Early detection can make a significant difference in outcomes.
Why Regular Skin Checks Matter
Skin cancer is one of the most preventable and highly treatable cancers when caught early. Performing regular at-home skin checks and scheduling routine dermatology visits are simple but powerful steps in protecting your long-term health.
If it’s been a while since your last exam, consider scheduling a full-body skin check with one of our board-certified dermatologists.
