Mole removal can be done using various methods. It depends in the size and type of mole. The patient will be assessed before it is done. It can be done using surgical excision, laser cautery and surgical shaving. It will also depend in the doctor’s technique and skill on how to make a clean excision. Your doctor will numb the mole area and use a scalpel and or laser to cut out the mole. The skin usually will scar but eventually scar usually fades off in time.
Some moles are deeply rooted that it sometimes reappear. With this situation, we suggest to undergo another surgical removal. Do not worry as it really happens but not most of the time.
Please schedule a consultation to determine what treatment will be most effective for you.
