This 3B Scientific® Skin Pathology model shows healthy skin and 5 different stages of malignant melanoma on the front and back, enlarged 8 times:
  • healthy
  • malignant cells are found at the surface, within the epidermis
  • malignant cells fill the epidermis, a few invade the papillary layer
  • malignant cells fill the papillary layer
  • malignant cells invade the reticular layer
  • malignant cells have reached the subcutaneous fatty tissue, satellite cells approach a vein
In the top view of the skin cancer model, the individual stages of externally visible skin changes are shown, allowing for an assessment according to the “ABCDE” criteria. The sides of the skin cancer model show the various levels of invasion into the skin layers according to Clark (I-V) and the tumor thickness according to Breslow (in mm). 5 original color illustrations on the base of the skin cancer model show various types of malignant melanomas. The skin cancer model comes mounted on a base.

The skin cancer model is a great tool for illustrating this skin pathology.

  5. Drawing function that allows image customization with save and share function
  6. Useful Notes function to help you with your personal learning
  7. Possibility to learn both male and female anatomy
  8. Easy access to 3D content both online and offline
  9. Available in 11 languages

Educate with confidence using a model that removes ambiguity from difficult conversations about skin cancer. This cross-section of human skin is enlarged eightfold to make micro-anatomy readable at a glance: epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis, plus accessory structures such as hair follicle, sebaceous gland, and sweat gland. Side-by-side panels (or zones) illustrate five milestones in melanoma development, helping learners compare normal and pathological appearances in one view.

The sequence typically depicts:

  1. Normal skin with intact layers and adnexa.

  2. Atypical/dysplastic changes (abnormal melanocyte proliferation).

  3. Melanoma in situ / radial growth within the epidermis.

  4. Vertical growth phase with dermal invasion.

  5. Advanced melanoma with deeper tissue involvement and potential vascular/lymphatic spread.

Each stage is sculpted with realistic contours and color transitions so you can point to borders, asymmetry, and depth—key factors behind the ABCDEs and Breslow thickness discussion. The stable base keeps the model upright for hands-on demonstrations, while the included 3B Smart Anatomy access provides supplemental digital content to reinforce learning.

Use it to:

  • Explain biopsy results and treatment rationales.

  • Demonstrate why early detection matters.

  • Train students on staging concepts and terminology.

  • Support community outreach, health fairs, and melanoma awareness events.

Note: Educational device only. Not a diagnostic tool.
