Skin Services

At MVFP, we offer a range of skin assessments and minor procedures to diagnose and treat common skin conditions, injuries, and other concerns. From mole and rash checks to biopsies, excisions, and joint injections, our team provides thorough evaluations and high-quality care in a safe and clinical environment.

These services are delivered by our experienced GPs, with some supported by our nursing team.
While some services are bulk billed, others may attract a private fee depending on the complexity of the procedure.
To book, please call our reception team, as these services are not available through online booking.

Mole Checks and Skin Checks

A detailed examination of your skin to identify suspicious moles, lesions, or signs of skin cancer. These checks are particularly important for patients with sun exposure, fair skin, or a family history of skin cancer.

Lumps and Bumps Checks

Evaluation of soft tissue lumps, cysts, and other skin growths to determine their cause and whether further investigation or removal is required.

Rash Checks

Assessment of acute or chronic rashes, skin irritation, or allergic reactions. Your doctor will diagnose the cause and provide treatment or referral if necessary.

Skin Biopsy

A minor procedure to remove a small sample of skin for laboratory testing. This helps diagnose skin cancers, inflammatory conditions, or unexplained lesions.

Surgical removal of skin cancers or other lesions under local anaesthetic. The excised tissue is sent for pathology, and your doctor will manage follow-up care and scar monitoring.

Treatment of cuts and wounds requiring medical attention, including cleaning, suturing (stitches), and dressing. Tetanus vaccination may also be offered if required.

Cryotherapy

A quick and effective treatment for warts, skin tags, sunspots, and certain superficial skin lesions using liquid nitrogen to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue.

Foreign Body Removal

Safe removal of splinters, glass, or other foreign objects embedded in the skin or soft tissue. Performed under sterile conditions with appropriate aftercare.

Anti-inflammatory injections used to relieve pain and swelling in joints, tendons, or cysts. Commonly used for conditions like bursitis, arthritis, and plantar fasciitis.
