CAIRNS CLINIC

FNQH Skin Cancer Clinic is a  clinic with doctors dedicated to preventing, detecting, diagnosing, treating and removing skin cancers. We have three locally owned and operated clinics – One in Cairns and another in Trinity Beach and are one of the largest skin cancer clinics in the country. We are also the largest skin cancer teaching clinic in Australia.

Comprehensive skin cancer checks

Our committed team of doctors conduct comprehensive skin cancer checks that involve examining your entire skin surface (not including under your undergarments unless requested), including areas not usually exposed to sunlight such as the scalp, mouth, eyes and the soles of hands and feet.

HEINE Cube imaging mapping system

We use this in-depth analysis and innovative data management system to take a series of pictures of our patients’ skin lesions over time and compare them periodically to monitor for any changes.

3D Mole Mapping

3D Mole Mapping is extremely useful for our patients who have dysplastic moles (moles that are larger and irregular in size then the average mole) or for those people who have had previous melanomas to help us keep track of any alterations.)

Skin biopsies

If our doctors think a suspicious spot could be a potential skin cancer, they will take a biopsy to examine the tissue further. This is a quick and simple procedure that only requires a local anaesthetic to numb the area.

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)

PDT is a skin cancer preventative treatment that uses a cream and a light source on a potential skin cancer spot to create a photochemical reaction that helps prevent non-cancerous skin lesions from morphing into cancerous ones.

Chronic Wound Light Therapy (CWLT)

We utilise red and blue light therapy to aid our patients though wound-healing processes. This therapy is clinically proven to help increase blood flow to the area of the wound to improve healing.

Skin cancer surgery

Our experienced doctors can remove any skin cancers that can be operated on under a local anaesthetic. We refer any patients whose skin cancer removal is more complex or requires a general anaesthetic to the surgeons at the public or private hospital.

Serial Digital Dermoscopic Images (SDDI)

For any skin lesions that aren’t malignant but still need attention we use SDDI to take a series of photographs of a specified area and periodically (usually three-month’s time) we will take more images to see if any lesions have changed.

Blue light acne treatments

We use blue light treatment, a painless treatment which has been clinically proven to kill the acne bacteria that causes acne breakout, to help our patient’s treat their acne problems.
