Mole Mapping
Prevention and Monitoring of Skin Health
Mole mapping, which allows the identification and analysis of nevi, is an advanced dermatological examination that helps prevent melanoma and monitor pigmented skin lesions over time.
At Studio Aimi, thanks to digital dermoscopy using FotoFinder Vexia technology, it is possible to observe skin details invisible to the naked eye and store images for continuous monitoring. Introduced in the 1990s, dermoscopy is now an essential tool in dermatologic oncology, enabling the early detection of melanoma, diagnosing more cases than clinical examination alone and reducing unnecessary surgical removal of benign nevi. This approach makes it possible to rapidly distinguish melanocytic lesions from non-melanocytic lesions and to identify benign lesions from those that are suspicious or malignant, in a non-invasive and painless way.
The digital storage of images also allows moles to be compared over time, enabling the precise monitoring of suspicious changes.
Thanks to this approach, mole mapping is safe, painless, and recommended both as a preventive examination and for individuals with numerous moles or a family history of melanoma.

Mole mapping is an advanced dermatological examination that uses digital dermoscopy to observe and monitor moles over time, helping to prevent melanoma through the early detection of suspicious lesions.
Digital dermoscopy with FotoFinder Vexia allows dermatologists to observe skin details invisible to the naked eye and store images for future comparison, improving early diagnosis and reducing unnecessary surgical procedures.
No. The examination is completely non-invasive and painless, based on the digital observation of moles without any surgical intervention.
It is recommended for individuals with numerous moles, a family history of melanoma, fair phototype, or irregular moles. It is also ideal for those seeking comprehensive dermatological prevention.
The frequency depends on the individual risk profile. In most cases it is recommended once a year, while higher-risk patients may repeat the examination every six months.
A mole should be evaluated if it changes in shape, colour, or size, if it bleeds, itches, or appears different from other moles. The appearance of new moles in adulthood should also be assessed.
Mole mapping is more detailed than a standard consultation. It includes high-definition digital image recording, allowing moles to be monitored over time and even minor changes to be detected.
At Studio Aimi in Parma, using digital dermoscopy with FotoFinder Vexia, we provide precise and safe monitoring of moles, with image archiving for future comparison and continuous follow-up.
