Mole Evaluation & Melanoma Screening in Brooklyn – Early Detection, Expert Dermatologic Care

At BayWay Dermatology, we provide thorough, professional evaluation of moles (nevi) and screening for melanoma, the most serious form of skin cancer. Located in Brooklyn, our dermatology team offers full-body skin exams and targeted assessments using advanced tools to detect potentially dangerous skin changes early—when treatment is most effective.

Most moles are harmless, but some can change in size, color, or shape and evolve into skin cancer. Early detection of abnormal moles or melanoma dramatically improves outcomes. Our experienced dermatologists are trained to recognize subtle changes and patterns that indicate concern, providing reassurance—or timely intervention—when needed.

🔬 What We Screen For:

Common Nevi (Moles):

Pigmented spots that may be flat or raised. While most are benign, changes in size, color, border, or symmetry may indicate a risk for skin cancer.

Atypical or Dysplastic Nevi:

Unusual-looking moles that may resemble melanoma. These carry a higher risk and should be monitored closely.

Melanoma:

A potentially deadly skin cancer that often begins in a mole. Early detection and surgical removal are critical to prevent spread.

🛡️ Our Evaluation & Treatment Services Include:

  • Full-body skin exams for annual screening or high-risk patients

  • Focused mole checks for new or changing lesions

  • Dermoscopy – a non-invasive imaging tool that allows magnified mole evaluation

  • Biopsy and lab analysis for suspicious moles

  • Surgical excision of confirmed melanomas or atypical nevi

  • Education on self-exams and the ABCDE warning signs (Asymmetry, Border, Color, Diameter, Evolution)

For patients with multiple or atypical moles, we offer customized monitoring and routine follow-ups to track changes over time.
