DENPASAR, BALINEWS.ID – Lumi Clinic has officially unveiled Indonesia’s first Skin Cancer Screening Center of Excellence, pioneering the use of FotoFinder ATBM Master, an AI-driven system for total body mapping and skin cancer detection, already used in leading dermatology centers worldwide.
The center is led by Dr. dr. Yulia Siskawati, Sp.DVE, FINSDV, FAADV, Indonesia’s sole representative in the International Dermoscopy Society (IDS) and an award-winning dermatologist. Her leadership ensures that cutting-edge technology is paired with internationally connected clinical expertise.
With this launch, Lumi Clinic sets a new benchmark for dermatology services in Indonesia, addressing growing skin cancer risks while boosting the country’s medical tourism landscape.
Located along the equator, Indonesia experiences year-round high ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which damages skin DNA and increases skin cancer risk for all skin types.
According to Globocan, Indonesia recorded 1,716 new melanoma cases in 2022, with the actual number likely higher when accounting for non-melanoma skin cancers.
Meanwhile, the nation’s 2,500 dermatologists face limited capacity to provide essential examinations such as dermoscopy, mole mapping, and regular skin screening. Consequently, many patients seek treatment only at advanced disease stages.
By integrating AI technology, Lumi Clinic aims to make specialist-level monitoring more accessible, offering early detection and ongoing tracking for at-risk patients.
Advanced Technology for Early Detection
Through a collaboration with Philomedicare Alliance, Lumi Clinic brings the FotoFinder ATBM Master system to the forefront of its screening services. The platform combines high-resolution full-body photography, digital dermoscopy, and AI analysis to monitor all skin lesions over time.
“The FotoFinder ATBM Master technology now available at Lumi Clinic enables objective and continuous skin monitoring. By combining digital dermoscopy, total body mapping, and AI-based analysis, doctors can identify potentially dangerous changes much earlier than with conventional examinations,” said Dr. Yulia.
The system is especially valuable for patients needing long-term follow-up, allowing doctors to track subtle changes that could indicate early skin cancer.
With Indonesia’s high UV exposure, Lumi Clinic emphasizes that sun-induced skin darkening signals DNA damage, making regular skin checks essential for everyone, regardless of skin type.
Early detection not only improves outcomes but can also reduce the need for invasive treatments. Lumi Clinic recommends annual or risk-based skin cancer screenings as part of routine healthcare.
