Early detection is the most important factor in a melanoma diagnosis—when discovered early, the survival rate is 99%. But it drops to 25% once it spreads distantly. With DermTech, doctors use the Smart Sticker to see past the surface—deep within your skin’s genes—to find and detect disease earlier than ever before. What does this mean? The Smart Sticker looks 10,000x closer to find genomic changes before they are even visible under a microscope. How does it work? The DermTech Smart Sticker collects tissue from your skin’s surface easily, accurately, and painlessly. Then your doctor sends it to The DermTech Gene Lab where a patented scientific process analyzes the tissue to detect genomic changes associated with melanoma. Depending on the results, the mole may continue to be monitored or your doctor may biopsy according to the current standard of care. Better yet? This revolutionary process can be ordered and directed by your doctor remotely through telehealth, allowing you the flexibility to maintain regular skin checks without an office visit. Thanks to the DermTech Smart Sticker, doctors have another way to test for melanoma. It’s the step before the scalpel. Ask your doctor to DermTech it! Find a DermTech Specialist near you. DermTech now also offers Luminate, the world’s first skin test that identifies UV damage in your skin’s genes. Luminate uses DermTech’s Smart Sticker technology to detect UV damage to your skin far before it shows up on the surface. With Luminate’s advanced genomic analysis and personalized information, you now have the tools to truly know your skin, and the power to take control of its care. Not only does Luminate indicate your actual level of UV damage at the DNA level, it gives you personalized, science-based recommendations on how to restore and repair that damage. DermTech works with an independent network of board-certified physicians to support your at-home Luminate testing experience. A physician will review your Luminate survey responses and approve orders that meet the requirements for testing. A physician will also review your Luminate results when completed by the Gene Lab. Visit www.LuminateDNA.com to reserve your Luminate test today and be one of the first to know your skin at the DNA level.
