Why have moles removed if they are not skin cancer?
Traditionally, moles were known as ‘beauty spots’, but not everyone is keen on their own and opt for mole removal for cosmetic reasons.
Other people find that their raised moles catch on jewellery or the seams of their clothes and become irritated.
Whatever your reason, we are happy to offer advice and remove your skin lesions safely and with minimal scarring.
Moles and skin cancers
Most skin lesions are benign, but new moles and changes to existing moles should always be screened for skin cancer.
Your mole will be examined at your initial consultation, and if your consultant feels that it requires further investigation, a biopsy will be performed.
Mole Removal Methods
There are several ways to remove moles, and your surgeon will discuss treatment options with you before you commit to surgery.
We always offer a local anaesthetic at our Bristol clinic, but our surgeons perform mole removal so skillfully that you will hardly notice the procedure taking place. Recovery time for these
We use the following methods of mole removal:
Diathermy
This removal method involves heating the skin lesion with a handheld device. The heat destroys the lesion and seals the blood vessels, reducing bleeding and limiting scarring.
We often use diathermy for mole and skin tag removal.
Mole Removal with Excision
Excision is the recommended procedure for raised moles or larger moles. This method involves cutting into the skin, removing the mole and closing the skin with stitches.
Curettage
This method of mole removal is also called electrosurgery or curettage and cautery. The lesion is scraped off the surface of the skin. A hot wire destroys the skin cells and cauterises the wound.
How much does mole removal cost in Bristol?
It is only possible to price mole removal once your mole has been examined and assessed at your initial consultation.
The cost of your procedure will depend on the method used and the size of the mole.
