While dermoscopy has become standard procedure in the diagnosis and management of patients with skin lesions, clinical and dermoscopic photographic documentation of lesions scheduled for biopsy are only infrequently performed in everyday practice [1–7]. Herein we present a case of a young woman who developed a re-pigmentation within the scar of an excised primary melanoma and highlight the importance of pre-surgical clinical photography in her management.
