Im going to have my moles checked at a health center, can i rely on that?

Moles: Having a trained healthcare professional exam your skin regularly is the best thing you can do to monitor for the development of melanoma. This will not prevent melanoma from developing but will help catch it in the early stages while its still hopefully curable.
