Understanding the MOLE REMOVAL & SKIN LESION REMOVAL
Moles are a common type of skin growth. Moles appear as small darkly pigmented spots. They are mostly non-cancerous and benign but can be borderline cancerous or cancerous.
Moles are round to oval, brown to tan or black in colour. They can be blue or pink too. Texture-wise, moles can be smooth or wrinkled. They are either flat or raised. Few have hair growing out of them too. Moles are less than 1/4 inch in diameter.
Moles and skin lesions can be unsightly, but their removal for cosmetic reasons is not funded by NHS. We will carry out the necessary examination to establish the suitability of removal and the type of procedure necessary.
The types of treatments include partial and complete removal, using a number of techniques, such as freezing off with liquid nitrogen, curettage and complete surgical removal followed by stitches.
