Mole Removal
If the mole is suspicious it needs to be removed for examination under the microscope (histology) to remove the risk of it developing further.
Benefits of mole removal:
- The mole is dangerous and needs to be removed for precise identification (histology) and for treatment to remove the risk.
- If the mole is considered potentially dangerous and require monitoring. The patient may prefer to have it removed rather than to worry about the risk and having to keep coming back to see the doctor.
- The mole is protruding and easily irritated by bras and belts etc.
- The mole is aesthetically unappealing.
What are the results?
This is a cosmetic procedure, even when carried out for health reasons and should therefore be performed by a specialist, dermatologist or plastic surgeon. It is a safe procedure at our mole removal clinic. Most moles are excised under local anaestetic as an elipse which is sawn up as a fine line. The mole is then sent for examination under a microscope. Some benign protruding moles can be shaved flat under local anaesthetic which leaves a flat white scar the same size as the base of the mole.
