New Zealand has the worst skin cancer rates in the world. In order to help New Zealanders stay on top of their skin health, Accuro provides free access to the SkinVision application for all of its members.
Please note that the goal of the SkinVision app is to help you to track your skin health and alert you to potential warning signs. It does not provide a diagnosis and is not a substitute for visits to a healthcare professional. The SkinVision service is also not intended for use on children.
The SkinVision app is intended to help you track the health of your skin and detect skin cancer at an early stage. SkinVision allows you to store photos and track changes to your skin over time. It serves as a helpful tool to guide discussions with healthcare professionals.
Based on a photo taken with your mobile device, SkinVision runs the mole, freckle or skin spot that you want to check through its algorithm and provides an instant risk level assessment. Based on the result, the SkinVision service recommends whether to visit a healthcare professional for further review.
SkinVision performs continuous quality control of the app with a team of algorithm and image recognition experts, in collaboration with dermatologists.
The SkinVision app is easy to use and normally costs $90 for one year unlimited access but it's FREE to all Accuro members.

— Vicky Underwood, Accuro memberFive minutes after the first photo, the app signalled my mole as high risk. A week later, I had my melanoma removed.
