Clear service boundaries
What This Service Does—and Does Not Do
Map My Mole is best understood as focused imaging and remote consultant review of selected moles or skin lesions. It is not a whole-body examination and it does not replace face-to-face medical assessment where that is needed.
What it provides
Focused Professional Review
- High-quality images of a selected visible mole or lesion
- Remote assessment by a UK consultant dermatologist
- A digital written report with the consultant’s opinion
- Advice about whether GP or dermatologist follow-up is indicated
- A report you can show to your GP or another medical professional
What it does not provide
Not Diagnosis, Biopsy or Removal
- It is not a full-body skin examination or automatic mapping of every mole
- It cannot examine areas that are not photographed and submitted
- It does not confirm or exclude cancer through images alone
- Pulsar does not biopsy, diagnose or remove moles
- A definitive diagnosis may require face-to-face assessment and biopsy

Questions Before Booking
Clear answers about the Horwich clinic, consultant review, reports, service limits and medical follow-up.
Where is the Map My Mole clinic in Horwich?⌄
Pulsar Laser Studio Horwich is at 23 Winter Hey Lane, Horwich, Bolton BL6 7AD. Map My Mole appointments can be booked directly at this clinic, with Chorley also available as an alternative.
How does Map My Mole work in Horwich?⌄
A trained Pulsar practitioner records the relevant history and captures clinical and dermoscopic images of the selected mole or skin lesion at the Horwich clinic. The submission is reviewed remotely by a UK consultant dermatologist, who provides a digital report and advice on the next step.
Who reviews my mole images?⌄
The submitted images and information are reviewed by a UK consultant dermatologist through the Map My Mole service. The Pulsar practitioner captures and submits the images but does not diagnose the lesion.
How quickly will I receive my report?⌄
Map My Mole states that digital reports are usually provided within 24–48 hours after a successful submission. Occasionally more information or clearer images may be requested before an opinion can be completed.
Is this full-body mole mapping?⌄
No. This is focused dermoscopic imaging and remote consultant review of the selected mole or visible skin lesion submitted. It is not a head-to-toe skin examination and cannot assess areas that have not been photographed.
Can Map My Mole diagnose skin cancer?⌄
The consultant report provides a professional opinion from the submitted images and information, but images alone cannot give a definitive tissue diagnosis. If cancer is suspected, face-to-face medical assessment and a biopsy may be required.
What happens if the report raises concern?⌄
The report will advise you to see your GP or a dermatologist. Arrange that follow-up promptly and take the report with you. Map My Mole states that its team also follows up when a consultant reports a mole or lesion of concern.
Do you remove moles at Pulsar Horwich?⌄
No. Pulsar does not biopsy or remove moles. Any investigation or treatment recommended in the report must be arranged through your GP, NHS dermatology or an appropriate private medical specialist.
Can I book if my mole is changing or bleeding?⌄
Yes. A changing, painful, itchy, inflamed, bleeding or crusty mole should be assessed promptly. Map My Mole can provide a focused opinion from a UK consultant dermatologist, usually within 24–48 hours. You may also contact your GP directly, and you should follow any recommendation for face-to-face GP or dermatology review contained in your report.
Can I choose the Chorley clinic instead?⌄
Yes. The same Map My Mole image-capture and submission pathway is available at Pulsar Chorley if that clinic is more convenient or has an appointment time that suits you better.
How much does Map My Mole cost?⌄
Current pricing and appointment availability are shown live on Pulsar’s Fresha booking page. Select Map My Mole and choose the Horwich clinic.
