Having a skin cancer diagnosed is an insurmountable fear for many people, however not having it diagnosed is worse and the vast majority who are diagnosed with a skin cancer and then treated are astounded at how easy the process was and how much relief they felt from the process. ![]() Dr Marcus Platts Mills

Start with prevention
We all know New Zealand’s sun isn’t the easiest on the skin – that’s why our skin cancer rate is among the highest in the world. The blazing sunshine and hole in the ozone layer over New Zealand leads to thousands of people each year suffering from melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, or squamous cell carcinoma. Protect your skin in advance to save yourself a lot of worry and prevent yourself from becoming another skin cancer statistic. Find out how here. Skin cancer is prevalent
We’ve treated over 20,000 patients with skin cancer over the last ten years, so we know just how common skin cancer is. If you do find yourself with a form of skin cancer, you’re definitely not alone! No matter when you’re affected, our team of skin cancer specialists will provide you with expert care – your partner along the way to skin health. All types of treatment
Not everyone has the same type of skin cancer, so it follows that not everyone needs the same treatment. At Skin Institute, you’ll find both simple and advanced skin cancer treatment and management, with specialty surgeries for difficult (and prominent) areas like the face. No matter how advanced your skin cancer, we’ve got a treatment to suit. Easy Ways to Pay
