Introducing the Miiskin App
Miiskin is the first AI-powered skin health app that helps people track their skin and moles over time for early detection of changes. Early detection of changes to existing moles and the appearance of new marks or moles can be an early warning sign of skin cancer and should be discussed with a doctor without delay. This is especially important as most skin cancers can be successfully treated if caught early. Using Miiskin can enable you to be proactive in seeking a medical professional’s advice. Those with a vulnerable skin type or a personal/family predisposition to skin complications can use the app to easily document changes to their skin.

Skin Cancer Warning signs
One easy way to remember common characteristics of skin cancer is to think alphabetically – the ABCDE's of skin cancer. This is the process used by physicians when assessing a mole for signs of skin cancer. Remember, early detection saves lives, so show any spots of concern to your GP.
Asymmetry
Does your mole have an irregular or asymmetrical shape? Show asymmetrical moles to your doctor.
Border
Does your mole have an irregular, blurry, or jagged edge? Show moles with an uneven border to your doctor.
Colour
Does your mole have multiple colours; including red, brown, black, blue, grey and white? Show moles with multiple colours to your doctor.
Diameter
Is your mole larger than 5mm? Show moles 5mmm or larger to your doctor.
Elevation
Is your mole becoming raised or feels elevated from your skin? Show elevated moles to your doctor.
Firm
Does your mole feel hard or firm? Show firm moles to your doctor.
Growing
Is your mole changing in shape, colour, size, height, firmness, began bleeding, or has started itching? Show moles that grow and change to your doctor.
The ugly duckling
A mole that is obviously different from the others is sometimes called an 'ugly duckling', 'black sheep', 'lone ranger', or 'odd-mole-out' and must be considered suspicious and shown to your doctor, even if it does not fulfil the ABCDEFG criteria.
