Mole Removal

Moles, also known as nevi, are common pigmented skin growths formed by clusters of melanocytes. While most moles are benign and harmless, some may change in size, color, or shape and require medical evaluation to rule out malignancy.

KEY BENEFITS OF Mole Removal

Mole removal may be recommended for both medical and cosmetic reasons. It is advised if a mole shows changes in size, shape, or color, or if it becomes asymmetrical or develops irregular borders. Other warning signs include bleeding, itching, or tenderness, which should always be evaluated. In some cases, patients choose mole removal for cosmetic enhancement, particularly if the mole is in a prominent area. If there is any suspicion of malignancy, a biopsy is essential to confirm diagnosis and guide further management.

Surgical Excision
A complete removal technique performed under local anesthesia, where the mole is excised with a small margin of healthy skin. This method is especially suited for deeper or potentially atypical moles, and the tissue is typically sent for histopathological analysis to ensure safety.

Shave Excision
A minimally invasive option where the mole is shaved flush with the surrounding skin. It is best for raised, benign moles with no suspicion of malignancy. Healing is generally quick with minimal scarring.

Laser Mole Removal
This method uses targeted laser energy to break down pigment and remove superficial moles. It is particularly effective for small, flat, benign moles, offering precise results with minimal scarring and downtime.

Radiofrequency Ablation or Electrocautery
These techniques use controlled heat or electric current to vaporize mole tissue precisely. They are effective for surface-level moles and promote smooth healing with a reduced risk of scarring.

FAQ's

How long does the procedure take?

Mole removal is a quick procedure, usually lasting 15–30 minutes, depending on the number and size of moles being treated.

No. Local anesthesia is applied to ensure patient comfort during the procedure. Most patients experience little to no pain, only mild pressure.

Downtime is minimal. Patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or scabbing for 7–14 days. With proper aftercare and professional technique, scarring is typically minimal and fades over time.

Yes. Any mole that appears suspicious or is removed by excision is sent for histopathology (laboratory analysis) to rule out skin cancer and ensure safety.

After the procedure, patients should keep the area clean and dry, avoid sun exposure (or apply high SPF sunscreen), and refrain from picking scabs to reduce scarring risk. If stitches are placed, a follow-up visit will be required for removal and to review pathology results.
