Skin cancer ranks first among the types of cancer in the US, making skin checks/skin screening and treatment a necessary test for those at risk. Most cancer cases are non-melanomas, which are treatable and usually not fatal. Another type is the rarer but more fatal melanoma. If you are worried, get skin checks/skin screening and treatment at one of our NYC locations.
Skin Checks and Screenings
What Are Skin Checks & Skin Screening Treatment?
Skin screenings involve looking for signs of skin cancer all over the body. It helps catch skin cancer early, giving you a higher chance of treating it using the right approach. You can do self-exams at home, but a professional skin screening is vital, especially if you find something suspicious during your self-screening.
Who is at Risk of Skin Cancer?
Regular skin checks/skin screening and treatment must be done for people with a higher risk of skin cancer. The following are common skin cancer risk factors:
-
A personal history of skin cancer
-
A family history of skin cancer
-
Fair skin, freckles, blue eyes, or red or blond hair
-
A weakened immune system
-
Several moles
-
A history of visiting tanning salons
-
Moles with a different shape or color from other moles
-
Severe sun damage
Should I Come in for a Skin Check or Skin Screening?
People at high risk of getting skin cancer should consult with a doctor. It is vital to seek professional help instead of relying solely on the results of your self-exam. We can thoroughly conduct an initial skin check/skin screening and evaluate the results.
If you notice unusual skin changes, new and uncomfortable growths, or wounds that take a long time to heal, we recommend scheduling a skin screening. You may also request a referral from your primary care doctor.
The Skin Check & Skin Screening
One of our experienced providers will examine the skin all over your body during a skin check. The screening will cover everything from head to toeโeven the scalp and the skin between the toes and fingers. If you have specific spots you want us to check more closely, including ones where new moles have grown, tell us about them during your appointment.
During the screening, your provider will perform a visual evaluation of your skin and may use a device to examine the skin more closely. Your provider will closely examine all lesions, especially ones that have multiple colors or have experienced changes over time.
If there are unusual lesions, you might need a biopsy, where a skin sample will be tested for cancer. It only takes a few minutes to complete, and the wound will heal in a week or two. If the biopsy results show evidence of skin cancer, PFRANKMD offers effective skin cancer removal treatment.
The Cost of Skin Checks & Skin Screening Treatment
The typical cost of skin checks/skin screening and treatment varies. In some cases, insurance may cover aspects of the price of screening and treatment. This will discussed in greater depth during your consultation.
Schedule a Consultation
Schedule your annual skin comprehensive skin check and screening before suspicious spots or damage appear. Your provider at PFRANKMD will create a personalized, comprehensive skin protocol for your needs to help you look and feel your best.

Stretch marks and skin laxity often develop as a result of pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or the natural aging process. At PFRANKMD, we combine the Vbeam laser and Miria laser to effectively address both concerns.โจโจMiria uses advanced non-ablative laser technology to heat the deeper layers of the skin, improving elasticity and firmness by stimulating new collagen and elastin production.โจ
Vbeam targets redness and discoloration in stretch marks by reducing vascular inflammation and stimulating collagen remodeling for a more even skin tone.โจโจ
Together, these treatments work synergistically to reduce the appearance of stretch marks and restore smoother, tighter, and more youthful-looking skin with minimal downtime.โจ

We are with our patient here one day after her Ellacor micro-coring treatment for facial rejuvenation. She experienced no pain during or after the procedure, with only mild swelling visible in the treated areas. Already, most of the tiny treatment sites have closed, leaving behind subtle pinpoint marks as her skin continues to heal.
With the latest Ellacor device, recovery is faster and more comfortable than ever. Patients can return to their normal routines right away, while avoiding sun exposure for two weeks to protect the skin and prevent pigmentation changes.
Results build gradually over the next 1โ6 weeks as collagen remodeling takes placeโmaking Ellacor an ideal pre-event treatment (this patient is preparing for a wedding in January).
Ellacor is the perfect gap procedure for those looking for skin tightening and rejuvenation, without surgery or scars.

Recovery is a journey, and the care you receive after your procedure is just as important as the surgery itself.

@dr.connieyang explains the importance of addressing active acne before treating acne scars. Ongoing breakouts can lead to additional scarring, and certain laser treatments cannot be performed on active inflammatory lesions. Active acne may also disrupt the skinโs healing process, potentially compromising the effectiveness of laser treatments.
Treatment options to clear active acne include topical skincare, acne-specific lasers such as AviClear, and medications like Accutane. Once the acne is under control, scar treatments can be more effective and longer-lasting.

This patient is excited to share her Jawline Rejuvenation journey with minimally invasive FaceTite and Vaser Microliposuction to improve the genetic skin laxity under her chin. This area has always bothered her. This is a treatment done under local anesthesia and allows for a quick recovery, avoiding the scars and post-procedural swelling associated with more aggressive surgeries.
FaceTite is a simple, safe, and effective procedure that dramatically improves skin laxity, texture, and heaviness around the jawline and neck. It uses radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin, making it a fantastic option for anyone looking to enhance their appearance with minimal downtime.
