Painless Moles And Skin Tags Removal Procedures

Moles removal is a very safe procedure with minimal side effects. It is important to realise, especially if you’re having your skin lesion removed for cosmetic reasons, that the procedure will leave a scar. Your doctor will do their best to keep this scar to a minimum. All of this will be covered at your consultation, and you can discuss possible scarring in detail before the procedure.

The technique that your doctor uses to remove your skin lesion will depend on various factors. These include how big it is, the type of lesion it is, and where it is on your body.

There are two primary methods of moles removal – excision with stitches and excision with cauterisation. Both methods take place in our clinics, using a local anaesthesia, on an outpatient basis.

Moles removal is a painless procedure due to topical anaesthetic injections. The mole is carefully sliced off with a sterile and very sharp scalpel. Many times a simple bandage will be placed over the area after moles removal. The mole is then placed into a container for biopsy at a specialised laboratory. A cauterisation tool can “close” the wound by heat application to the area, which stops bleeding. Stitches can also be used if necessary.

Patient care has always been at the forefront of everything we do. We believe that ‘aftercare’ is just as important a part of the entire cosmetic treatment procedure as the treatment itself.

Our registered, professional and highly trained medical team are accessible at all times to advise you on your individual needs, to explain exactly what the procedure entails and to assist you with any concerns you may have following your treatment.
