Map My Mole – Digital Mole Mapping in Chorley & Horwich
Looking for a professional mole check near me? Map My Mole at Pulsar Laser Studio provides digital mole mapping and skin mole screening using high-resolution imaging — helping you track changes over time and feel more in control of your skin health.
Appointments are available at our clinics in Chorley and Horwich (Bolton), serving clients across Lancashire and Greater Manchester.
We don’t diagnose or treat skin cancer – instead, we provide clear visual documentation, explain what we see, and guide you on when to seek a GP or dermatologist opinion.
- Digital mole mapping & high-resolution images
- Professional monitoring of changes over time
- Clear guidance on when to seek medical review
Important: if you’re worried about a specific mole (for example it’s bleeding, itching, growing quickly or very different to your others), please contact your GP or 111 urgently. Our service does not replace urgent medical care.
Why clients choose Map My Mole at Pulsar
- Digital mole mapping: high-resolution images of your moles and key areas so nothing relies on memory alone.

- Calm, private setting: relaxed, professional environment with time to ask questions.

Who Map My Mole is for
- Anyone with lots of moles or freckles who wants a baseline record.

What to expect at your Map My Mole appointment
Your appointment is calm, methodical and designed to give you a clear record of your skin at a single point in time. Here’s what typically happens:
- Consultation & consent – we talk through your concerns, medical background (including any previous skin cancers) and what you’d like to focus on (for example, full body mapping vs. specific areas).
- High-resolution imaging – we take clear photographs of your moles and relevant skin areas. You’ll be positioned comfortably and we’ll always respect your privacy and modesty.
- Review & education – we walk you through the images, explain what’s been recorded and recap simple “ABCDE” warning signs so you know what to watch for at home.
- Next steps & follow-up plan – if any moles look suspicious or worrying, we’ll advise you to see your GP or a dermatologist. We can help you plan when to return for repeat imaging (for example every 6–12 months).
You’ll leave with a clearer picture of your skin and practical guidance, not a rushed or dismissive “it’s probably fine”.
What we check
- Single moles you’re worried about, including size, shape and colour changes.
- Clusters of moles or freckles on areas like the back, shoulders and chest.
- Sun-exposed areas such as face, neck, arms and legs.
- Baseline mapping if you have lots of moles and want a “starting point” for future comparison.
What Map My Mole is not
- We do not diagnose skin cancer or other medical conditions.
- We do not perform biopsies or mole removal – this is always done via your GP, NHS dermatology, or a medical specialist.
- If we see anything that concerns us, we’ll advise you to seek urgent medical review and help you understand how to explain it to your doctor.
Map My Mole is a screening and documentation service designed to support, not replace, medical assessment.

Map My Mole – FAQs
How does Map My Mole work? ›
Map My Mole uses high-resolution imaging to record your moles and key skin areas, then compares them over time. We walk you through the images, explain what’s been recorded and recap simple warning signs so you know what to watch for at home. If anything looks worrying, we’ll suggest you see your GP or a dermatologist. It’s a screening and documentation service, not a medical diagnosis.
Is Map My Mole the same as seeing a dermatologist? ›
No. Map My Mole is a screening and documentation service, not a medical diagnosis. We capture and review images, explain what we see, and advise when to see your GP or a dermatologist.
Can you tell me if a mole is cancerous? ›
No – only a doctor or dermatologist can diagnose skin cancer. If anything looks concerning, we’ll clearly explain that and recommend you seek urgent medical review.
Do you remove moles? ›
We do not remove moles. If removal is needed, this is usually arranged via your GP, NHS dermatology, or a private medical clinic.
What should I do before my appointment? ›
We usually recommend avoiding heavy fake tan or body makeup on the day, and wearing comfortable clothing that’s easy to adjust so we can access the areas you’d like checked.
How often should I repeat Map My Mole? ›
Many clients repeat mapping every 6–12 months, or sooner if they notice a new or changing mole. We’ll discuss a sensible interval based on your skin, mole pattern and personal risk factors.
