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.

@dr.connieyang breaks down two of our most effective options for acne scarring. The CO2 laser is the gold standard for deeper collagen remodeling and more dramatic textural improvement, though it comes with a longer recovery. Miria is a novel non-ablative laser that offers controlled resurfacing with less aggressiveness and shorter downtime.
Both options can be transformative when used thoughtfully and in expert hands. At PFRANKMD, our goal is always to match the right device to the right patient for the safest, most effective pro-aging outcome.

Scars evolve over time, and so does the skin around them. This patient began with significant redness, tension, and stretch marks across the lower back and buttocks. Over the following months, you can see the scar soften, fade, and blend more naturally into the surrounding skin.
This transformation was achieved using our scar protocol, combining:
โข Vbeam to reduce redness and vascularity
โข Miria to improve texture, remodel the scar, and resurface surrounding stretch marks
With consistent aftercare, proper scar management, and more than 5 treatments, scars can soften, smooth, and transform beautifully. Healing is a process, and every stage of progress tells a story of strength and renewal.

Stretch marks and skin laxity often develop as a result of pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or the natural aging process.

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.
