Written by To be confirmed: Author — to be confirmed · Clinical team

A private dermatology consultation at Beechwood House Healthcare starts with a thorough discussion of your skin concern, followed by a clinical examination — often including a dermatoscope for moles and lesions.

How to prepare

  • Note when the problem started and whether it has changed
  • Avoid heavy makeup or nail polish if the concern is on your face or nails
  • Bring a list of any medications or creams you use

What happens next

We explain the diagnosis and agree a treatment plan with you. Where suitable, minor procedures such as mole removal or a biopsy can sometimes be arranged at the same visit or booked promptly.
