Evolution, or change
The evolution or change of a mole (or other skin lesion) is an important thing to look out for. A healthy mole will not change over time. If a mole is changing in size, color, shape or elevation – note that this could be a sign of skin cancer. By any means, it needs to be checked out for a closer look.
We don’t talk about evolution in appearance only. When new symptoms arise, this also counts as change. So when a mole starts to itch or bleed, for example, this is a sign of risk. Make sure to keep an eye on your moles to track any changes over time, so you’ll notice and evolution early.
Self-check now
The first step to take is to self-check. This is the easiest way to get an instant risk indication of that mole you worry about. Start using the SkinVision app today to take a picture of the mole, and track your skin health over time.
