How to Look for Melanoma

• Examine your body front and back in the mirror, then right and left sides with arms raised.
• Bend your elbows and carefully look at your palms, forearms, and under your upper arms.
• Look at the backs of your legs and feet, the spaces between your toes, and the soles of your feet.
• Examine the back of your neck and scalp with a hand mirror. Part your hair for a closer look.
• Finally, check your back and buttocks with a mirror.
