I would like to know what should I do if my camera has a mold or dust on both the screen and lenses, should I do the cleaning process all by myself and can you give me some tips and instructions on opening to clean the lenses and front screen of Powershot SX 530HS?
Please help me,
ASAP!

High quality lens cleaning cloth
Puffer air blower
Lens cleaning fluid
Maybe some Q-Tips
Dust is not a big deal. Mold is another story. I've seen it attack the optical coatings on some lenses.
Good luck.

You will need a lot of stuffs to clean your camera and lens properly, so if you want to invest a lot of money on the cleaning products then you can do it. Or you can just visit a professional who already has those and do it with a cheaper price. I would suggest you to buy the products that you need and do it yourself as our gadgets need constant care and proper cleanig after every shoot. So having all those stuffs can realy make it easy for us to do it when ever we want.

As a side note, you can usually find screen protectors for the LCD of your model.
Also, you can purchase inexpensive desiccant packs that go in your camera bag and absorb moisture which causes all sorts of problems.
